excesses; international medical school graduates; the nature and
financing of undergraduate and graduate medical education;
appropriation levels for certain programs under Title VII of the Public

Additionally, the COGME encourages entities providing graduate medical
education to conduct activities to voluntarily achieve the
recommendations of the Council related to appropriate efforts to be
carried out by hospitals, schools of medicine, schools of osteopathic
medicine, and accrediting bodies with respect to the supply and
distribution of physicians in the United States; current and future
shortages or excesses of physicians in medical and surgical specialties
and subspecialties; and issues relating to international medical
graduates, including efforts for changes in undergraduate and graduate
medical education programs.
