The Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center, which together with USC's medical school runs a fellowship in cardiovascular disease.
The ACGME also took the rare step of imposing immediate probation on Los Angeles County and USC, which together sponsor more than 60 programs with hundreds of medical residents and fellows, including the troubled cardiovascular disease fellowship. Changes to the fellowship take effect in June 2020, allowing two classes of current fellows to graduate.

County Supervisor Hilda L. Solis said in a statement Thursday that she was disappointed by the panel’s decision. “But I am fully committed to ensuring that there is no interruption of cardiology services at LAC+USC Medical Center,” she said.
