Winning the Peace: Measuring Faculty Time to Support Residency Redesign.

In June 2023, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Board of Directors decided to allow flexibility by specialty with respect to requirements for residency faculty educational time. The Family Medicine Review Committee then decided to return to the standard in place before 2019: effective July 1, 2024, each core residency faculty member will have 0.6 full-time equivalent (FTE) dedicated to residency education, including both time focused on educational tasks such as recruitment, assessment, advising, faculty development, scholarship, and time in direct supervision of residents such as precepting or supervising inpatient care. The Family Medicine Review Committee also requires 1 core residency faculty member for each 4 residents and allows flexibility in the distribution of FTE across faculty.
