Following the 892-110 vote, 1,400 housestaff members will be recognized by the Committee of Interns and Residents.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of EMRs do not facilitate storing, retrieving, or acting on information in an efficient or intuitive way.

Since the election details were finalized, house staff organizers alleged that Penn Med leadership has been spreading misinformation about the voting process.

If successful, they will be the first group of house staff to do so in Pennsylvania.

Hundreds of Penn Medicine resident physicians and fellows have asked the Philadelphia-based health system to recognize their representation under the Committee of Interns and Residents, a branch of the Service Employees International Union. If successful, Penn Medicine's residency program would be the first in Pennsylvania to unionize, allowing them to collectively bargain for better pay and health care benefits.
