Academic Family Medicine Chairs
From the Association of Departments of Family Medicine
The family medicine departments in US medical schools are diverse, eclectic, and in transition. Whereas almost all maintain the historic focus on training medical students and residents, others are homes to large research programs and practice networks, and many are experimenting with innovative methods of improving patient and community outcomes. Computerized medical records, open-access scheduling systems, and better methods of helping patients change behaviors are being tested and improved in many sites, while others are experimenting with systems for improving the postdischarge care of high-risk patients or the utility of workplace-based primary care. Educational methods are in flux as well, as more restrictive requirements in training are imposed, and as knowledge and skills in evidence-based practice and communication becomes increasingly important.
If you have not checked to see what your family medicine department is doing, and what you might learn or how you may help, you may wish to get in touch. The current listing of the academic department chairs is displayed below. Full contact information is always available at the Association of Departments of Family Medicine Web site, at http://www.adfammed.org/.
