So, I was talking to a resident and thinking about factors in choosing a residency. I heard in some programs and/or parts of the country, up to and over 60% of the graduating residents will be named in malpractice suits for cases they were involved in during residency. Also, read somewhere in the Gensurgery publications/periodicals something about a trend of attendings declaring lack of knowledge on the part of residents.....
I was curious if applicants are now including this line of questioning when interviewing for programs? Do applicants and or residents find this conversation exchange occurring more often?
