Hi, I've been working with GPT-4 as a reviewing assistant. I asked it: "This is the lede of a Wikipedia article titled "List of medical schools in the United States". What can you suggest adding to make it more comprehensive, encyclopedic, and engaging?"

• "To make the lede more comprehensive, encyclopedic, and engaging, you can consider adding the following information:

• Briefly discuss the history and development of medical education in the United States.
• Mention the variety of programs and specializations offered by medical schools in the United States, such as research-based programs, primary care-focused programs, or dual-degree programs (e.g., MD/PhD or MD/MPH).
• Include information on the application and admission process for medical schools in the United States, highlighting the competitive nature of medical school admissions.
• Discuss the role of medical schools in shaping the healthcare workforce and their impact on the US healthcare system.
• Note any recent trends or developments in medical education, such as an increased focus on diversity and inclusion or the integration of technology and telemedicine into curricula. Here's an updated version of the lede incorporating these suggestions:

"This list of medical schools in the United States includes current and developing academic institutions that award the Doctor of Medicine (MD) or the Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) degrees, either of which is required for comprehensive practice as a physician in the United States. MD-granting medical schools are accredited by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education, while DO-granting medical schools are accredited by the American Osteopathic Association Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation. There are currently 158 accredited MD-granting institutions[1] and 37 accredited DO-granting institutions in the United States.[2]

Medical education in the United States has evolved since its inception in the 18th century, and today, medical schools offer a variety of programs and specializations, such as research-based programs, primary care-focused programs, or dual-degree programs (e.g., MD/PhD or MD/MPH). The application and admission process for medical schools in the United States is highly competitive, often requiring strong academic performance, standardized test scores, and relevant experiences.

Medical schools play a significant role in shaping the healthcare workforce and impact the US healthcare system. In recent years, there has been an increased focus on diversity and inclusion in medical education, as well as the integration of technology and telemedicine into curricula to better prepare future physicians for the evolving landscape of healthcare.

Although Delaware, Alaska, Montana, and Wyoming are the only states that lack independent medical schools, Alaska, Montana, and Wyoming are served by the University of Washington School of Medicine through the WWAMI Regional Medical Education Program. Maine and Idaho are served exclusively by one DO-granting school apiece. New York has the most medical schools at 17.

The landscape of medical schools in the United States continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of the healthcare system and to address emerging challenges such as physician shortages and the demand for more specialized medical professionals. As medical education adapts to these ongoing developments, the list of medical schools in the United States will continue to expand and diversify to meet the country's healthcare needs."
