Abstrakt: Background: Predictive health services modeling signals a shortage of board-certified Hospice and Palliative Medicine (HPM) physicians. Methods: This article introduces the Community Hospice and Palliative Medicine (CHPM) Fellowship, an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Advancing Innovation in Residency Education (AIRE) project designed to enable mid-career physicians (at least five years out from residency or fellowship) to achieve eligibility for board certification in HPM. Results: From 2020 to 2023, 24 fellows have completed or are currently participating in the CHPM fellowship which is evaluated using the Kirkpatrick model. Conclusion: This program shows promise in addressing the impending HPM workforce shortage by allowing physicians to complete a fellowship in their local communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
