The number of foreign or Chilean physicians with pre or postgraduate studies abroad, seems to be increasing.
To report the experience of CONACEM in the certification of specialties for Chilean or foreign physicians that studied abroad.
The certification process for 90 physicians (38 Chilean and 52 foreign) with studies abroad is reported. Criteria for certification of specialties were the same used for physicians with studies in Chile and results were compared with those obtained by the latter.
Physicians with studies abroad required additional evaluations with a greater frequency than local physicians, due to the fact that foreign training programs are not well known by CONACEM members. Eighty five percent of foreign physicians required those further evaluations, compared with 66.6% of all physicians certified by the commission. Fifty five percent of Chilean physicians with studies abroad did not accept this additional assessment. Applications for specialties of physicians with studies abroad, were rejected with a greater frequency than those of Chilean physicians (31% and 13%, respectively).
Physicians with studies abroad applying for certification of medical specialties required more evaluations and were rejected with a greater frequency than Chilean physicians.
有国外研究生学习经历的外国或智利医生数量似乎在增加。
报告智利国家医学专家认证委员会（CONACEM）对在国外学习的智利或外国医生进行专业认证的经验。
报告了对90名有国外学习经历的医生（38名智利医生和52名外国医生）的认证过程。专业认证标准与在智利学习的医生相同，并将结果与后者获得的结果进行比较。
有国外学习经历的医生比本地医生需要更频繁地进行额外评估，原因是智利国家医学专家认证委员会成员对国外培训项目了解不足。85%的外国医生需要进行进一步评估，而委员会认证的所有医生中这一比例为66.6%。55%有国外学习经历的智利医生不接受这种额外评估。有国外学习经历的医生的专业申请被拒绝的频率高于智利医生（分别为31%和13%）。
申请医学专业认证的有国外学习经历的医生比智利医生需要更多评估，且被拒绝的频率更高。
