With 15 residential positions filled, the program went from “withdrawal of accreditation under special circumstances” to “withdrawal of accreditation under special circumstances, under appeal” on ACGME’s website.
The accreditation of a sponsoring institution or program that is “under appeal” may remain active until the ACGME makes their final accreditation status decision, according to the ACGME’s policies and procedures list.
“We are glad the ACGME agreed to keep our Surgery Residency Program open until we have the opportunity to receive additional information and submit our appeal,” Tony Esposito, CEO of Upland-based Crozer Health, told Becker’s in a statement.
A letter regarding the program’s status is expected within 60 days, a spokesperson for Crozer told Becker’s in a statement.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
