Medical school accreditors are abandoning DEI, report shows


Medical and healthcare education accreditors are abandoning diversity, equity, and inclusion requirements for schools, a Do No Harm report shows, with the organization’s medical director saying accreditors must still be held accountable “to ensure lasting reform.”

Do No Harm is a group that represents “physicians, nurses, medical students, patients, and policymakers focused on keeping identity politics out of medical education, research, and clinical practice,” according to its website.

Do No Harm’s medical director, Dr. Kurt Miceli, told The Center Square that “it’s encouraging to see the progress that has been made since the President’s executive order just three months ago,” referencing Trump’s April order to reform accreditation.
