Why isn't there a movement for neurology programs to be all inclusive (PGY-1-4), instead of advanced (PGY-2) positions where we have to fend for a preliminary IM or transitional spot?
Based on the 2009 NRMP data, it looks like Emergency Medicine and Anesthesiology are really making strides on this front, for they are consistently lowering the PGY-2 and increasing PGY-1 postions.
This brings me another questions: are the neurology boards/societies strong enough to take a solid piece of the neurorads/imaging/pain-management/and other fields where specialties clash? It seems like the other groups are succeeding on these avenues (and in finances).
