Medical Education Allowance
All residents receive an educational allowance that they can use to purchase medical books, i-Pads, and computer software. The money can also be used to pay for the April FM Board Exam, USMLE step 3, and certification courses, such as PALS and ATLS. Each 2nd and 3rd year resident is allowed authorized leave time for the purpose of attending one medical education meeting during each of those years of residency. Attendance requires the prior approval of the program director and is contingent on patient care responsibilities and available funds. Reimbursement for travel and expenses will be made according to the University's policies and procedures for such. PGY3 Residents must use CME leave time or vacation for interviewing.
Authorized leave and financial support is as follows:
1st Year 0 days $800
2nd Year 5 days $1,000
3rd Year 5 days $1,300
