The Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) previously evaluated
programs with direct site visits, every 1–5 years. The length of time between visits would depend on program data supplied in
a program information form (PIF) and the interview of representative residents and
the program director at the site visit reviewing and confirming certain facts about
the program. In 2013, the Accreditation Council on Graduate Medical Education went
to the Next Accreditation System every 10 years with certain targeted outcomes viewed yearly to determine whether 10 years between visits was acceptable.
