How does a combined training program (another clinical specialty and Preventive Medicine) become accredited by the RRC?
A. Guidelines for conducting these programs have been approved and published by the American Board of Preventive Medicine and American Board of Internal Medicine (to date, the only approved combined programs are between internal medicine and preventive medicine). Combined training programs are not accredited as such by the RRC. However, each component of a combined program (e.g. internal medicine and preventive medicine) must have full accreditation status from their respective RRCs.
