Abstract

The closure of Philadelphia's Hahnemann University Hospital (HUH) in summer 2019 brought an abrupt end to its status as a sponsor of graduate medical education (GME). The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) provided assistance to ensure that more than 550 residents and fellows in HUH's 35 ACGME-accredited programs were able to transfer to new programs in which they could continue their education. As the ACGME joined other organizations in responding to HUH's closure, it was apparent that the voices of residents and fellows should be emphasized in regulatory processes and policies that address substantial disruptions to GME and affect their education, their daily lives, and their professional futures.
