ACGME- Call for Comments- IM 2035- Internal Medicine Requirements within Proposed Common Program Requirements
The ACGME Resident Review Committee in Internal Medicine (IM-RRC) will soon begin a major revision of the Common Program Requirements for Internal Medicine. Unlike past revisions, the IM RRC requested a different approach, to include the scenario-based strategic planning executive summary. The review period closed on July 1, 2018 and asked for two things:
- Provide feedback on the insights and themes from IM2035
- While considering IM2013, review and provide the IM RRC comments on which current IM specialty requirements should be edited or removed, and what new requirements should be introduced.
July 1, 2018- Review the APCCMPD Comments
ACGME Call for Comments on the Common Program Requirements Sections I-V, Phase 2
The ACGME Board of Directors initiated this second and final phase of the Common Program Requirements Sections I-V review. To address inherent differences in specialty and subspecialty training, the Phase 2 Task Force developed two sets of Common Program Requirements - one specific to residency programs, and a separate set for fellowships. The fellowship version applies to all subspecialty programs, regardless of program length, and will replace the separate One-Year Common Program Requirements.
