Factbook 2.0

Factbook 2.0 Episode 1: The History and Background of the Family Medicine Factbook

In this episode of The ABFM Podcast, Dr. Gary LeRoy and Dr. Andrew Bazemore talk through the Family Medicine Factbook 2.0, what makes this second edition different, and why it matters.

The Factbook is ABFM’s interactive, data-driven resource built on years of longitudinal survey data collected directly from Diplomates. It offers a detailed look at who family physicians are, where they practice, how their practices are organized, and how the specialty continues to evolve within a changing health care landscape. With this second edition, the Factbook has grown into an even more robust tool, featuring dynamic tables, infographics, and downloadable figures that make the data easier than ever to explore.

Together, Dr. Gary LeRoy, ABFM Senior Vice President of Diplomate Experience and Dr. Andrew Bazemore, ABFM Senior Vice President of Research and Policy and Co-Director of the Center for Professionalism & Value in Health Care, discuss how ABFM transforms real responses from thousands of family physicians into a clearer, more complete picture of the specialty, one that can inform workforce planning, policy conversations, and a deeper understanding of the role family medicine plays in primary care.
