ABSTRACT
Systematic residency education curricula can provide students and residents opportunities to learn a broad range of clinical skills. One curricular model for Japanese general medicine departments <I>(sogoshinryo-bu)</I> is family-practice residencies in the United States. The values of family practice include first-contact care, continuity, comprehensiveness, coordination, community health, and care of the person. The precepting system is the pillar of resident education and provides the structure for physician-teachers to guide a medical school graduate to become a competent family physician by the end of 3 years of clinical training. Family-practice centers, community-based clinics where university faculty and residents provide care, have a proven record in the United States as clinical classrooms for teaching the values and skills needed for high-quality primary care and could greatly facilitate practice-focused training in Japan.
