Resident and Fellow Training

Developed by the RLI, economics experts and residency program directors, the RLI Resident Milestones Program: Economics and the Physician Role in Health Care Systems, provides the essential training to help satisfy the ACGME Physician Role in Health Care Systems sub-competency (part of the Systems-Based Practice competency) requirement by effectively facilitating resident education in health care economics.

This workshop offers the unique opportunity to learn through self-paced pre-recorded lectures as well as an interactive live webinar. Upon participating, residents will gain critical knowledge about entering the workforce and have the chance to practice their skills in real-world scenarios with guided support from leading experts in radiology. Additionally, those who attend may sign up for an exclusive, one-year mentorship program for personalized guidance as they prepare to transition out of residency and into the workforce.

Chaired by Ann Jay, MD and Ryan Peterson, MD, this comprehensive live and online program takes place over the course of 4 months and presents a focused curriculum on topics such as contracts and negotiations, rookie leadership and personal finance.

With a mission of offering residents a sample of the high-quality education RLI provides, one free leadership presentation is offered at the American Institute for Radiologic Pathology (AIRP) course in Silver Spring, MD, to attendees of the Four-Week Resident Course.

As an alternate to the RLI Kickstart course, sessions are scheduled once per course and are designed to provide insights and guidance that will be valuable on the leadership journey.

A selection of bi-monthly webinars that provide radiologists at all career stages with valuable insights on prescient leadership and health care topics.
