INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING PROGRAM INFORMATION FORMS FOR PROGRAMS IN PEDIATRIC GASTROENTEROLOGY

The same program information form (PIF) is used for those making initial application and those undergoing periodic re-review.

Applications: The RRC will evaluate an application for a new program without a prior site visit. Contact the RRC office for deadlines. Note that a subspecialty program must function in conjunction with a fully accredited program in pediatrics that is in good standing.

Title: The title of a subspecialty program should correspond to the title of the affiliated pediatrics program to facilitate cross referencing.

Sponsor: Identify as the SPONSORING INSTITUTION that entity which has final administrative responsibility for the program, as evidenced by the fact that it monitors the quality of the education and coordinates the accreditation activity. This must be the same sponsor as the core pediatrics residency. If the SPONSORING INSTITUTION and the PRIMARY HOSPITAL are one and the same, the hospital's name should be entered in both sections.

Before work is begun on this form, the Program Requirements for Subspecialties of Pediatrics and the Program Requirements for Residency Education in Pediatric Gastroenterology should be thoroughly reviewed. Copies of these documents may be obtained from the ACGME website (www.acgme.org).

If more than one hospital participates in the program, information on each hospital should be given as requested. The program director is responsible for gathering the requested data from the participating institutions and consolidating the information on one form.

The total length of time subspecialty residents are assigned to each participating hospital should be filled in as requested on Pages 1 and 2.

Page 2: RESIDENCY REVIEW COMMITTEE FOR PEDIATRICS

- 2 -

If the subspecialty residents in your program rotate for a period of time to another accredited pediatric gastroenterology program, the written agreement should include: 1) the scope of the affiliation; 2) the resources in the affiliated program which will be available to the subspecialty residents; 3) the duties and responsibilities the subspecialty residents will have in the affiliated program; 4) the relationship which will exist between subspecialty residents and staff of the affiliate and primary programs.

For those sections where additional pages are needed to answer the questions, retype each question using a small bold type font and answer in a larger font. It is important that the original pagination remain the same. If necessary, paginate the forms by hand in the upper right corner.

All sections of the form must be completed. If any requested information is not available, an explanation should be given in the appropriate place on the form. The completed form should be prepared as a single document with all added pages numbered in sequence as requested. INCLUDE ONLY THE REQUESTED INFORMATION.

The program director is responsible for the accuracy of the information supplied in this form and must sign it. It must also be signed by the Department Chair/Chief of Service and the Designated Institutional Official of the sponsoring institution.

ALL PAGES INCLUDED IN THE FORM SHOULD BE 8 1/2" BY 11". DO NOT USE UNDERSIZED OR OVERSIZED SHEETS. Each copy of the completed form may be secured with a rubber band, a clip, or it may be loosely enclosed in protective materials. DO NOT punch holes in the form. Remove all staples within the form, e.g., from the CV's. DO NOT use any kind of process to bind the form or attach it to anything. DO NOT insert section dividers. The number of copies to be submitted will vary as follows:

New application: Send four complete copies to the Executive Director of the Residency Review Committee for Pediatrics at the above address.

Resurvey: See letter announcing the site visit.

If you have questions about the form, contact the Accreditation Administrator (Phone: 312-755-5044). For word processing questions/problems, contact the ACGME Help Desk (Phone: 312-755-7464). For questions regarding a site visit, contact the writer of the letter announcing the survey.

3DURATION OF TRAINING

The program requirements which were approved by the ACGME on February 16, 1993, contain the following paragraph regarding the duration of training:

Two years of progressive educational experience is required, which includes the development of procedural skills, responsibility for patient care and participation in research. Any program that extends training beyond the minimum requirements must present clear educational rationale consonant with the Program requirements and objectives for residency training. The program director must obtain approval of the Residency Review Committee prior to implementation and at each subsequent review of the program. Prior to entry in the program, each resident must be notified in writing of the required length of training.

If you propose or offer a program of three years duration, please provide the educational rationale below. In doing so, make reference to both the Program requirements for Pediatric Gastroenterology and the Program Requirements for Subspecialties of Pediatric Programs.
