About USMLE Committees & Task ForcesThe United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE ) program is both grateful and proud to list thenames of the medical educators, academic researchers, practicing clinicians and other professionals whoserved as committee or task force members in 2021. Included you will find a list of cohorts comprisingindividuals whose expertise and dedication made it possible for the USMLE program to continue to servethe state and regional medical boards and the medical education community. These individuals enable theUSMLE to achieve its goals of assessing a physician's ability to apply knowledge, concepts, principles andpatient-centered skills.In 2021, 341 individuals contributed to the USMLE examination program by creating and reviewing testmaterials. Of these, 50% were women.1 Minority racial/ethnic groups comprised nearly 19% of members.More than 63% of members held a medical degree; nearly 29% held both a medical degree and anadditional advanced degree; 6% held a PhD alone; and nearly 2% of these members held other degreesfrom various disciplines. Geographically, more than 35% of committee members were from the SouthernUnited States; nearly 25% were from the Central United States; 25% were from the Northeast; and morethan 14% were from the West Coast. Nearly 3% of committee members reported to be either current orformer members of state licensing boards. Individuals from more than 122 organizations served on aUSMLE committee.1A total of 331 USMLE committee and task force members selected either male or female on our survey; 165members reported to be female.Copyright 2022 by the Federation of State Medical Boards of the United States, Inc.

Improving Exam Content: Introducing theUSMLE Patient Characteristics Advisory PanelSeveral focused efforts are underway to further incorporate DEI to provide shared value and benefits forexaminees, medical educators and community members. This includes creating a more structured way toreview and respond to inquiries about test questions.In July, USMLE commenced work with the newly convened Patient Characteristics Advisory Panel to expandthe impact of the previous USMLE Management Committee task force. With support from NBME staff, thispanel of practicing physicians and USMLE committee members will help ensure exam content, practices andreview processes illustrate patient characteristics fairly, accurately and devoid of stereotyping. Their vision:patient characteristics included in USMLE test items both reflect the patient population that examinees carefor and adhere to NBME’s updated Item Writing Guide. This guide can help any educator appropriatelydescribe patients to construct quality test questions.The Advisory Panel members, who were selected with diversity in geography, specialty, gender andrace/ethnicity in mind, include: Andrea Anderson, MD, The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health SciencesKaren J. Brasel, MD, MPH, Oregon Health & Science University School of MedicineThomas M. DeFer, MD, Washington University in St. Louis School of MedicineJohn S.

USMLE Committee for Individualized ReviewThe USMLE Committee for Individualized Review (CIR) is a standing committee appointed by the USMLEComposite Committee. It exercises the authorities and responsibilities described in the USMLE Policies andProcedures regarding irregular behavior, score validity and anomalous performance.A majority of the committee’s time is spent reviewing cases of possible irregular behavior. Irregular behaviorincludes any action by applicants, examinees or others that could compromise the validity, integrity orsecurity of the USMLE process. Examples of irregular behavior include, but are not limited to,communicating or attempting to communicate about test items, cases and/or answers; altering ormisrepresenting examination scores or outcomes; or possessing unauthorized materials in the securetesting area. The CIR carefully considers all available pertinent information and evidence when rendering adecision. If the committee determines that an individual engaged in irregular behavior, an annotation tothat effect will appear on applicable score reports and transcripts for that examinee. Further, the committeehas the authority to report their findings to the Federation of State Medical Boards’ Physician Data Centerand/or other legitimately interested entities as well as bar the individual from future administrations ofUSMLE.ChairJON V.
