title: Lessons learned from ACGME.
abstract: The year 1998 brought to a close our 6 years of service as representatives to the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. These have been challenging times for graduate medical education (GME), and our time on the council has been an educational experience of the first order. This paper describes our experiences and summarizes the issues we believe lie ahead for GME, particularly for family practice residency programs.
