An Interview with Dr. Amitabh Chandra

Radio Rounds
In today’s episode, Radio Rounds' Executive Director John Corker sits down with Dr. Amitabh Chandra, of the Institute of Medicine’s Committee on the Governance and Financing of Graduate Medical Education, to discuss his insider’s perspective on the method behind the perceived madness of his committee’s recent recommendations for improving medical residency training in America. Dr. Chandra is an architect of one of the IOM's most controversial and potentially impactful reports in recent memory, and he doesn't hold anything back in explaining his candid and pragmatic approach to answering the foundational question posed to his committee: "What are medical residents - and by extension, their patients - really getting in return for the enormous investment into their training made by American taxpayers?"
