"The match gives us a fair process for applicants and programs to be paired, just like in other graduate medical education programs. It evens the playing field between the applicants and programs so that everyone can simply list their top choices in order. It is also a demonstration of the great collaboration between AMIA and our Clinical Informatics Program Directors."
