AB  - America's  medical  education  system  is  generally  viewed  as  the  best  in  the  world.  Despite  the  decline  in  physician  salaries  over  the  past  10  years1  and  a  corresponding  increase  in  the  bureaucratic  oversight  of  health-care  delivery,  many  of  the  brightest  students  in  the  world  compete  for  the  opportunity  to  enroll  in  one  of  America's  129  medical  schools,  with  an  average  of  two  to  three  applicants  for  each  of  the  15,000  to  16,000  available  seats.2  After  investing  four  years  to  earn  their  medical  degrees,  these  newly  minted  physicians  move  on  to  three  to  five  additional  years  of  residency  training,  where  24,000  positions  await  them.3  Those  seeking  careers  as  specialists  then  undergo  one  to  five  additional  years  of  training  in  a  fellowship.
