A questionnaire was sent to the administrators or the persons in charge of the programs of 347 institutions including 80 university hospitals and 267 clinical training hospitalsas designated by the Ministry of Health and Welfare.
Answers to a questionnaire were returned by 271 institutions (78.1%). The results were analyzed and summarized as follows.
(1) About 95% of both university and clinical training hospitals have their own programs at present.
(2) In the substantial formula of programs, university hospitals have had straight or rotation form while the clinical hospitals have selected rotation or super rotate (comprehensive) form.
(3) The programs of university hospitals have started in majority before 1992 while those of clinical hospitals have began after 1993.
(4) The programs of university hospitals have contained the clinical training at the other departments or institutions in a significantly higher ratio compared to those of clinical hospitals.
(5) The check system for the evaluation of the programs has well functioned in half of both hospitals.
(6) For the assessment of the programs used, about half of the staffs of both university and clinical hospitals feel unsatisfactorily in their active programs.
