Training Verification
McGovern Medical School Department of Pediatrics Online Verification System
For assistance with other specialties, please find the appropriate point of contact from this coordinator list and contact the individual department directly.
Process and Fee Schedule
A charge of $75 will be assessed for each standard letter of verification, payable via credit card using our on-line payment portal, or by check, if submitting the request by US mail. This charge is in place to offset the cost of fees we commonly incur while credentialing our own incoming Residents and Fellows. We apologize for the inconvenience.
If the resident or fellow has graduated in the last two years, please skip the payment process and email us for the Consent to Release of Information and Release of Liability form.
