Pharmaceutical industry interactions in family medicine residencies have decreased since 2008 Steven R. Brown, MD, David V. Evans, MD, Adriane Fugh-Berman, MD Banner-University Medical Center – Phoenix University of Arizona College of Medicine - Phoenix University of Washington Georgetown University

Background and objectives Most medical residents have some interaction with the pharmaceutical industry. It is not known if this interaction has changed over time. We determined whether interactions between family medicine residencies and the pharmaceutical industry have changed in the past five years.

Methods We surveyed program directors of U.S. family medicine residencies in August and Sept 2013 The questions were part of a larger 2013 survey administered by the Council of Academic Family Medicine Educational Research Alliance (CERA). We compared results from 2008 and 2013.

5 questions Does your medical school/residency have any interaction with pharmaceutical companies? Does your residency allow gifts from industry or industry-supported food? Are drug samples accepted at the residency? Are industry representatives allowed access to medical students and/or residents at the family medicine center? Are any industry-sponsored residency activities allowed?

Our 2008 survey Acad Med 2011;86(5)

Results The response rate to the 2013 CERA program director survey was 56% (251/445), similar to the 62% (286/460) of programs that responded to our freestanding 2008 survey 83% of respondents (47% (208/445) of the entire sample), answered all questions

Results 49% (101/208) of programs responding to all four questions in 2013 were pharma-free, compared to 26% (75/286) in 2008 (p<.001).

Discussion Interactions between family medicine residencies and the pharmaceutical industry have decreased dramatically in recent years. – 1992, only 10% of family medicine residencies had no interaction with industry – 2008: 26% – 2013: 49%

Discussion Our findings match a pattern in the literature that shows industry interaction with physicians seems to be decreasing. – 2009 survey (Campbell EG, et al. Arch Intern Med 2010;170(20)) the percentage of physicians with any relationship with industry decreased from 94% in 2004 to 84% in The number of physicians that receive drug samples decreased from 78% to 64% the number of physicians receiving any gifts, including food, decreased from 83% to 71%.

Discussion In recent years, many organizations and individuals have called for an end to industry involvement in training programs including: – a prominent group of academic leaders in a JAMA editorial – Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation – Institute of Medicine – Association of American Medical Colleges. Starting in 2014, the “Sunshine” provision of the 2010 Affordable Care Act requires industry to publicly report payments and gifts to physicians and teaching hospitals. We hypothesize that the increased focus on physician- industry relationships has lead to changes in many programs in the past five years.

Discussion Interactions between medical schools and pharmaceutical companies have also been under scrutiny. 70% of medical schools now earn an “A” or “B” grade on the American Medical Student Association scorecard for their interaction policies. Given the evidence of the effects of marketing on physicians and learners, medical educators should consider carefully whether interaction between learners and pharmaceutical sales representatives is appropriate in an academic environment.

Conclusion An increasing number of family medicine residencies restrict interaction with the pharmaceutical industry. However, about half of residencies still allow at least some interaction in the form or gifts, samples, meetings with representatives, or industry-sponsored activities.
