Residency Review Committees
Residency Review Committees are heavily involved in the accreditation process. ACGME relies on experts in twenty-six specialties to revise the standard and review accredited programs. Accreditation typically occurs every 3-5 years, including both internal and external reviews. The membership of the RRCs is made up of physicians with reputations for expertise in residency education.
Organizations that appoint members to the RRCs include the:
- American Medical Association (AMA)
- the member boards of the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS).
- the academic specialty organization also appoints a portion of the RRC members.
