Programs leading to the M.D. degree in the U.S. and Puerto Rico are accredited by the LCME. The LCME is jointly sponsored by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and the Council on Medical Education of the American Medical Association (AMA). Each organization appoints a Secretary and maintains an LCME office. Primary responsibility for coordinating survey visits, hosting quarterly meetings, and serving as LCME spokesman (the "principal Secretary") alternates between the offices each academic year (July through June).
E-mail questions and comments to lcme@aamc.org,
or contact staff individually as shown in the chart below.
Official correspondence to the LCME should be addressed
to both LCME Secretaries (at each sponsoring association).
Correspondence e-mailed to lcme@aamc.org
will be distributed to both offices:
