FOR CONTINUED ACCREDITATION
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
REVIEW OF AN ACCREDITED PROGRAM OR RE-ACCREDITATION OF A PROGRAM: If the Program Information Form (PIF) is being completed for a currently accredited program, follow the provided instructions to create the correct form. Go to the Accreditation Data System found on the ACGME home page (www.acgme.org) under Data Collection Systems. Using your previously assigned User ID and password, proceed to the PIF Preparation section on the left hand menu and update the Common PIF data. Most data are updated through annual updates, but some information is required at the time of site visit only. Once the data entry is complete, select Generate PIF to review and print the Common PIF (PDF). Pages will be numbered consecutively in the bottom center of each page.
Once the Common PIF is complete, proceed to the appropriate Residency Review Committee webpage to retrieve the Specialty Specific PIF for CONTINUED ACCREDITATION. Once the forms are complete, enter page numbers for the Continued PIF in the bottom center for each page that consecutively follows the Common PIF numbering, combine the Common PIF and the Continued Accreditation PIF and complete the Table of Contents (found with the Specialty Specific PIF instructions). After completing the PIF/documents, make four copies. They must be identical and final. Draft copies are not acceptable. The forms should be submitted bound by either sturdy rubber bands or binder clips. Do not place the forms in covers such as two or three ring binders, spiral bound notebooks, or any other form of binding. Mail one set of the completed forms to the site visitor at least 14 days before the site visit. The remaining three sets should be provided to the site visitor on the day of the visit.
The program director is responsible for the accuracy of the information supplied in this form and must sign it. It must also be signed by the designated institutional official of the sponsoring institution.
Review the Program Requirements for Residency Education in Radiation Oncology. The Program Requirements and the Institutional Requirements may be downloaded from the ACGME website (www.acgme.org):
