Effective February 2024, the ACGME Board of Directors approved a plan to initiate accreditation of combined programs, which are GME programs designed to provide residents/fellows with education in two or more specialties/subspecialties. The ACGME Combined Program Requirements are a basic set of standards (requirements) that supplement/complement the existing specialty-/subspecialty-specific Program Requirements for education of resident and fellow physicians in a particular specialty or subspecialty.
