Impact of the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education/ American Osteopathic Association Single Accreditation System Merger on PM&R Applications and Match Rates: An Analysis From 2012 to 2024.
Objective: The aim of the study was to assess whether the 2020 ACGME/AOA Single Accreditation System merger affected the proportion of osteopathic and allopathic students applying and matching into physical medicine and rehabilitation.
Design: Using publicly available Association of American Medical Colleges and National Resident Matching Program data from 2012 to 2024, this retrospective study analyzed (1) the physical medicine and rehabilitation application proportion out of the total pool of allopathic or osteopathic students entering the match for any specialty and (2) the match share of allopathic and osteopathic residents among all physical medicine and rehabilitation matches. Linear regression compared premerger (2012-2019 applications; 2014-2020 matches) and postmerger (2020-2023 applications; 2021-2024 matches) trends.
Results: The physical medicine and rehabilitation application proportion of osteopathic students declined premerger (slope = -0.11) and rose postmerger (0.19). Allopathic application proportions remained stable premerger and increased slightly postmerger. Allopathic match share decreased premerger (-0.41) but increased postmerger (0.77), while osteopathic match share rose faster premerger (1.44) than postmerger (0.57). None of these slope changes reached significance.
Conclusions: Following the single accreditation system merger, there was an increase in osteopathic application proportions, and allopathic match share rebounded while osteopathic gains slowed. These trends suggest the merger influenced application and match dynamics but coincided with other shifts in medical education.
期刊介绍：
American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation focuses on the practice, research and educational aspects of physical medicine and rehabilitation. Monthly issues keep physiatrists up-to-date on the optimal functional restoration of patients with disabilities, physical treatment of neuromuscular impairments, the development of new rehabilitative technologies, and the use of electrodiagnostic studies. The Journal publishes cutting-edge basic and clinical research, clinical case reports and in-depth topical reviews of interest to rehabilitation professionals.
Topics include prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal conditions, brain injury, spinal cord injury, cardiopulmonary disease, trauma, acute and chronic pain, amputation, prosthetics and orthotics, mobility, gait, and pediatrics as well as areas related to education and administration. Other important areas of interest include cancer rehabilitation, aging, and exercise. The Journal has recently published a series of articles on the topic of outcomes research. This well-established journal is the official scholarly publication of the Association of Academic Physiatrists (AAP).
