The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Program Requirements for Graduate Medical Education in Family Medicine state that each residency program must have “a lead administrative person, frequently referred to as a ‘program coordinator,’” who is provided the time, resources and support to manage the day-to-day operations of the program. The program coordinator is a key member of the residency leadership team and, with the program director, is responsible for ensuring that the program meets ACGME common and family medicine-specific accreditation requirements. The program coordinator must possess an in-depth knowledge of ACGME accreditation requirements and American Board of Family Medicine board certification requirements in addition to the policies of the sponsoring institution, department, faculty and resident employers, and health care facilities (e.g., hospitals and physician offices). The coordinator serves as a liaison between faculty, residents, staff, administrators, medical students, and residency applicants. The coordinator assists residents and faculty as an advisor, counselor, and guide. The Association of Family Medicine Administration (AFMA) offers family medicine residency coordinators a community for peer support, exchange of best practices, and news about developments in graduate medical education. The National Board for Certification of Training Administrators in Graduate Medical Education (TAGME) offers a certification mechanism for residency coordinators.
