Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Physician Diversity
  • Disability Inclusion

Background:

  • Significant portion of US adults have disabilities, yet few physicians report disabilities.
  • Ableism in medical training and practice negatively impacts physician diversity, wellbeing, and healthcare equity.
  • Disparities in healthcare access and outcomes are linked to ableism in medicine.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore barriers to disability equity and inclusion in medical training.
  • To examine internal medicine program directors' perspectives on recruiting and accommodating residents with disabilities.
  • To identify factors influencing the inclusion of residents with disabilities in internal medicine programs.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study utilizing semi-structured virtual interviews with program directors.
  • Purposive and convenience sampling to ensure diversity in program characteristics and participant demographics.
  • Thematic and discursive content analysis of interview transcripts to understand program director perspectives.

Main Results:

  • Program directors expressed contradictory views, viewing disability as both a source of empathy and an intrinsic deficit.
  • Concerns were raised regarding unpredictable absences and potential clinical incompetencies of residents with disabilities.
  • Key challenges included lack of experience with accommodations, workload distribution, information asymmetry, and disclosure barriers; facilitators included advanced planning and clear processes.

Conclusions:

  • Contradictory views among program directors highlight a need for improved understanding and support.
  • Addressing information asymmetry in recruitment and accommodation processes is crucial for enhancing inclusion.
  • Improving representation and inclusion of residents with disabilities can lead to a more diverse physician workforce and better healthcare outcomes.
