ACGME Resident duty hours management Software case study

Medical hospitals/Organizations require Online Sofware system which maintains all the duty hour records related to residents duty hours. On July 1, 2003, the ACGME's resident duty hour regulation came into implementation. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) is responsible for the Accreditation of post-MD medical training programs. The new common resident duty hour standards became effective for all accredited residency programs. The goal is to set a minimum standard; individual RRCs may set more restrictive standards, as warranted by patient safety, resident education and resident wellbeing considerations in their discipline. Supervisors and Administrators of Medical Organizations/Hospitals need to track all Residents Duty Cycles hours and on this bases they want to generate reports for each resident's duty cycle.
