The Mission
The ACGME recognizes how increasing diversity in the physician workforce positively impacts health care access and patient outcomes, a key part of the organization's Mission.
The ACGME’s goal is to contribute to the elimination of health care inequities by focusing on the physician workforce. Through its Department of Division of Access and Community Impact, the ACGME engages in work to provide knowledge and tools for the graduate medical education (GME) community to advance physician workforce diversity and build safe, inclusive, and equitable learning environments for physicians.
The Department of Division of Access and Community Impact focuses on four key focus areas: education; outreach; research; and accreditation.
