Milestones Progression of International Medical Graduates in Family Medicine

We found comparable milestone ratings between IMGs and US medical graduates, with IMGs getting a small boost if they were trained in a program with a higher percentage of IMGs. Our results demonstrate that the performance of IMGs may be enhanced in residencies with a history of acculturating them.

Abstract

We found comparable milestone ratings between IMGs and US medical graduates, with IMGs getting a small boost if they were trained in a program with a higher percentage of IMGs. Our results demonstrate that the performance of IMGs may be enhanced in residencies with a history of acculturating them.
