摘要

住院醫師選配在美國行之有年，而日本亦在近年推行近似的制度。住院醫師選配的主要目的是要幫助醫學院畢業生選擇自己未來接受專科醫師訓練的醫院及課程。從美國及日本執行住院醫師選配制度的經驗可以了解，這樣的制度是既有優點也有缺點，在制度推行之後還須不斷改進。我國的社會文化和醫療環境與美日有頗多差異，若要推動住院醫師選配制度，除了必須先了解制度本身的優缺點及在國外執行的經驗之外，更須考量國情、集思廣益並從長計議，逐步踏實地推行，才有可能成功。

In United States, the National Residency-Matching Program has been conducted for more than half a century; in contrast, residency-matching is a newly developed program in Japan. Both matching programs have their advantages and disadvantages and their participators have been working hard and continuously to improve these programs. Taiwan's social culture and medical environment are quite different from both the United States and Japan. As we plan to introduce our own residency-matching program, how we set about adjusting our program to our society and cultural background is a most important aspect of our deliberations. To do this, we need to gather information from society, listen to the stakeholders, develop the project carefully, evaluate progress aggressively, and improve the project at periodic intervals.
