    AbstractThe proportion of family medicine residents with ≥$250,000 in self-reported educational debt rose from 26% in 2014% to 47% in 2019. Such a rapid rise in high indebtedness is concerning, given known associations with resident distress. Previous research has also shown that highly indebted residents are less likely to choose academics, geriatrics, and service-oriented career paths.© Copyright 2021 by the American Board of Family Medicine.
