Medical Education Data Request Policy

This policy is intended to protect medical student confidentiality and provides restrictions on requests for and use of College of Medicine – Tucson (COM-T) undergraduate Medical Education Data for research and program improvement purposes. Data requests must be submitted to and approved by the Accreditation & Analytics Office. Medical Education Data must be used in a manner that protects student confidentiality.

Substantial Disruptions in Patient Care or Education & Closure or Reduction in Size of a Program Policy

In compliance with the ACGME Institutional Requirements, the Graduate Medical Education Committee (GMEC) must establish a written policy that addresses a reduction in size or closure of an ACGME accredited program, or closure of the sponsoring institution. This process should be established to minimize the negative impact on trainees and to ensure the communication of these decisions as soon as possible.
