The Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) is responsible for certifying foreign medical graduates before they can start a residency program in the United States. The United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) is a three-step examination for medical licensure in the United States. To practice medicine in the US, international medical graduates (IMGs) must pass the USMLE and obtain ECFMG certification. This process is crucial for foreign-trained physicians who want to pursue a career in the United States.
