The authors point to the medical professional project of the American College of Physicians–American Society of Internal Medicine as a blueprint for heightened professionalism. This charter outlines the defining characteristics of professionalism, and the Board of Regents of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) has endorsed it. However, while this document may elucidate the meaning of professionalism, it does not offer concrete suggestions regarding how we boost professionalism.
