CONTEXT: Emergency Medicine (EM) has played a foundational role in Hospice and Palliative Medicine (HPM) since the subspecialty's formal recognition. Yet, little is known about the growth of EM-trained physicians pursuing HPM fellowship.
OBJECTIVES: To quantify trends in EM applicants and successful fellowship match outcomes to HPM fellowships from 2016 to 2023 and compare them with other primary specialties.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis of National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) data was conducted for all HPM fellowship applicants from 2016 to 2023. Trends in active applicants, successful match rates, and year-over-year growth were evaluated by specialty.
RESULTS: From 2016 to 2023, EM applicants to HPM fellowships increased by 400%, from 11 to 55 applicants, far outpacing overall growth across specialties (89%). Successful EM match rates remained high (average 85.4%), peaking at 92.9% in 2022. EM also showed the fastest growth in matched applicants, with an average annual increase of 27.2%.
CONCLUSION: EM is one of the fastest-growing sources of applicants to HPM fellowships, reflecting rising recognition of palliative care's value in acute care. This trend has important implications for workforce planning, specialty integration, and the future of dual-trained EM-HPM clinicians.
