• Graduate medical education
• Alternatives

Since the late 1880s, surgical residency programs have existed in forms that are similar to our current models. Many important variations have been introduced overtime. On aggregate this system has worked remarkably well; though as economic, demographic, and cultural changes continue to evolve, one must wonder if we were to change our models, how might we do that and what reasoning could we use. This article's focus is to take a stratospheric view of what could be done, particularly in the United States, rather than characterize what happens in other countries with other health economic systems.
