About the National Academy of Medicine Scholars in Diagnostic Excellence Program
Funded by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, this collaborative program in partnership with the Council of Medical Specialty Societies (CMSS) is designed to develop a cadre of leaders who can drive implementation of effective strategies to raise awareness of diagnosis in medicine, support diagnostic excellence, and reduce diagnostic errors at the national level. Scholars participate in this one-year, part-time remote experience to enhance their knowledge and skills in diagnostic quality, safety, and equity and accelerate their career development in becoming national leaders in the field. With additional support from The John A. Hartford Foundation, an additional scholar with a focus on advancing diagnostic excellence, including diagnostic safety, quality, and equity for older adults may be selected. Learn more here.
