The course of study for young physicians for postgraduate training is an exciting and lifechanging opportunity, one that is filled with the relentless optimism of intellectual discovery and personal growth and development. The American Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) is a non-profit private council that evaluates and accredits internship, residency, and fellowship programs. The role of the ACGME is to oversee curriculums, training environments, and specialty evaluation standards to ensure satisfactory competency leading to board eligibility and certification in the respected field of study. The ACGME has the monumental task of guiding educational standards that are designed to both protect the public welfare and further educational programs. Many educational standards are objective, such as quantitative performance on examinations, involvement in research, and involvement in systems development and quality improvement. However, key clinical performance measures are based on prior training and experience. Over the last several years, studies examining rates of abuse and discrimination during postgraduate medical training in both the United States and Canadian studies, which have reported alarmingly high rates of 50%. With the increasing utility and availability of social media, such issues have become more transparent to the public. A plethora of studies has been conducted, examining physician biases towards patients, practice changes, insurance company regulations, and evolving healthcare systems. However, a significant amount of evaluation is merited when examining individual institutional cultures and the educational environments that harbor them. We wish to examine the role of everevolving specialty-specific ACGME-instituted educational milestones in Internal Medicine and Opthalmology in the context of potential cognitive biases and their implementation within postgraduate training programs.
