Abstract: The standardized residency training policy is the core institutional guarantee for improving the quality of clinical training. Based on the Policy Modeling Consistency (PMC) model, this study constructed an evaluation framework with 9 primary variables and 41 secondary variables and conducted a multi-dimensional quantitative analysis of 15 residential training policies issued at the national level from 2013 to 2023. Through the evaluation of PMC index grading criteria (excellent: 8.00-9.00; good: 6.00-7.99; acceptable: 4.00-5.99; poor: 0-3.99), it was found that the average comprehensive score of the sample policies was 7.17 points, which was generally at a good level, including 3 excellent policies, 10 good policies, and 2 acceptable policies. The variables X6 (Policy Evaluation, 0.99) and X2 (Policy Timeliness, 0.89) scored highest6, while X8 (Policy Instruments) and X7 (Policy Support) showed notable weaknesses, with mean values of 0.67 and 0.69, respectively. China′s standardized residency training policy needs to focus on optimizing the structure of policy tools and strengthening demand-oriented policy tools and market incentive mechanisms, improving the mechanism for the introduction of special funds and social capital, and promoting multi-dimensional social investment; improving the cross-departmental coordination mechanism to systematically improve the effectiveness of policies and promote the high-quality development of the residential training system.
