Y1 - 2012/02/15 N1 - 10.2106/JBJS.K.00425 JO - The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery SP - e24 1 EP - 6 VL - 94 IS - 4 N2 - Abstract:  During the past century, graduate medical education funding has evolved in response to the increasing specialization of modern medicine as well as the need for federal funding to effectively sustain specialty training. This article reviews historical and current funding methods for graduate medical education and examines current funding using Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) as a case example. Notably, it also explores whether graduate medical education funding at a large academic center such as MGH is commensurate with expenditures.
