A recent study found fewer female physicians are practicing in high-compensation specialties compared to their male counterparts.
The study, conducted by researchers from Ann Arbor-based University of Michigan, was published Sept. 30 in JAMA.
Researchers analyzed more than a decade's worth of data from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, National Graduate Medical Education Census and Electronic Residency Application Service for the study.
Of the 124,982 individuals found to have entered high-compensation specialties, 34.6% were female.
