In this episode, we’re joined by Heidi Chumley, dean at the Ross University School of Medicine, to discuss the barriers facing aspiring physicians in their journey to residency. Heidi will delve into the challenges of the residency matching process, including the cost of applications and travel expenses, as well as bias based on USMLE scores and discrimination in residency programs. She will also discuss the steps her medical school is taking to increase diversity and support its students in their journey to become successful resident physicians. With a 96 percent first-time residency attainment rate, Heidi provides valuable insight into the challenges and solutions in this important aspect of the health care industry.

Heidi Chumley is dean, Ross University School of Medicine.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “Proposing solutions to end bias in the medical residency selection process.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

With so many demands on their time, physicians today report record levels of burnout. Burnout is caused by many factors, one of which is clinical documentation. Studies indicate physicians spend two hours documenting care for every hour spent with patients.

At Nuance, we are committed to helping physicians do what you love – care for patients – and spend less time on clinical documentation. The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is an AI-powered, ambient clinical intelligence solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 83 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Rediscover the joy of medicine with clinical documentation that writes itself, all within the EHR.
