GME DATA

There is an easier way to get GME data for your hospital, albeit the most recent

data is from 1997. Larry Green at the AAFP Policy Center has posted the data for

IME, DME. total GME, the number of primary care residents, and the GME/resident

for FY 1997, by hospital and by state, on the AAFP Policy Center web page:

www.aafppolicy.org .

You'll need to do two searches and correlate the results. The first is on GME,and the second is on hospital identification numbers, so you can interpret the first. I've pasted links to both reports below:

GME data by hospital ID: http://aafppolicy.org/data/gme.html

Hospital ID numbers, by state: http://aafppolicy.org/data/id.html

In addition, there is a summary report of within state variance for GME. It's

at: http://aafppolicy.org/data/t2.html

Good hunting!
