The ACGME has heard significant concerns from multiple constituents in several states and from federal Sponsoring Institutions about their ability to comply with some of the ACGME requirements addressing diversity in light of state or federal laws. Given this uncertainty surrounding the legality of Common Program Requirement I.C. and Institutional Requirement III.B.8., as well as related specialty/subspecialty-specific requirements, the Executive Committee of the ACGME Board of Directors is suspending enforcement of these requirements and will discuss this action with the ACGME Board at its June 2025 meeting. This reflects the ACGME Board’s responsibility for approval of accreditation requirements.
