During a Featured Plenary at #ACGME2023 entitled Preparing Learners to Care for Patients and Communities Experiencing Substance Use Disorder, Charlene M. Dewey, MD, MEd, FACP, Stephen Loyd, MD, and Jeanette Tetrault, MD, FACP, FASAM discussed their unique experiences in treating and creating learning environments for physicians and other care practitioners to treat substance use disorder (SUD).

The ACGME Board of Directors recently reviewed and approved several specialty- and subspecialty-specific Program Requirements, which were updated to align with the Board’s requirements for allocation of dedicated time for program leadership, core faculty members, and program coordinators.

The majority of these physicians are international medical graduates (IMGs), encompassing both foreign nationals and U.S. citizens who completed their medical education and training outside the United States and Canada.
