Abstract
The authors developed statewide standards of excellence for ambulatory care training in an osteopathic medical consortium of family medicine residency programs. A total of 16 osteopathic family medicine residency programs joined with the Michigan State University-College of Osteopathic Medicine to form the Consortium for Osteopathic Graduate Medical Education Training (COGMET) Family Medicine Division. Standards were developed and implemented on a statewide basis for all member residency programs. Initial qualitative evaluations discovered minor as well as more substantive noncompliance after a 6-month trial. Results from longitudinal quantitative evaluations will determine the effectiveness of these standards-.
