With approval in hand, work has transitioned to creating an application and candidate review process. Again, the committee is hard at work reviewing how others approach this piece of their programs and is deep in deliberation on the best approach for SHM. Even though it’s the summer, this process will be as thorough as all the work to date.
When you’re considering whether or not to complete that first FHM application, and apply to join our inaugural class, please know that the FHM designation:
- Is firmly rooted in the core competencies of our specialty;
- Represents a way to tell your colleagues, your employers, and your patients that you are a hospitalist; and
- Came to be because of the hard work and dedication of a group of your peers.
In the coming months, we will continue to share details of the program and answer common questions.
If you have any questions about the upcoming fellowship program, please do not hesitate to contact our office by calling (800) 843-3360.
