With the changes in resident hours in other specialities, can anyone comment on the impact this will have on ortho programs? Will this make notoriously malignant ortho programs more benign?

My question is: who the heck is gonna police it?

I haven't been under 80 hours any week since I've started. I only had one day off last month (when technically you're supposed to get 1/week). And I have yet to go home by noon on a post call day. I'm not complaining, and I don't mind what I'm doing. But no one in his/her right mind is going to go whining to the program chair because they worked 95 hours last week. I'm certainly not monitoring my hours, and no one else seems to be doing so. They spoke about it during orientation, but I'm not sure if I see any real changes yet.
