Training Verification
In order to provide a uniform process for verifying residency/fellowship training for credentialing purposes, the Sponsoring Institution has adopted a standard Verification of Graduate Medical Education and Training (VGMET) form. The Verification Policy applies to all graduate medical education training programs at Memorial Healthcare System.
Residency/fellowship training verification forms are processed by the individual programs. Listed below are the Memorial Healthcare System programs and their direct contact information.

Download the VGMET form, which is completed for free for recent graduates up to one year after graduation. For all other graduates the administrate service fee is $65.00.
- Payment is accepted by check or money order and should be made payable to Memorial Healthcare System, Graduate Medical Education.
- The forms will not be completed until payment has been received.

NOTE: VGMETs are completed following a resident’s successful completion of the program. Therefore, they could take up to three weeks following the end of the academic year on June 19 to be available for release.
