description As an official subcommittee of the Japan Primary Care Association, Japanese Association of Family Physicians Trainees aims to support residents in (1) acquiring knowledge, skills, and experience; (2) building networks; (3) acquiring an international perspective; and (4) lifelong careers and has supported general medicine residents since 2017. Nevertheless, the publication of the letter, hoping for these support, would hinder the reach of such information to the residents who really need it. This could be because many young physicians, who do not belong to the JPCA, such as trainees who aim to become hospitalists, are getting registered in general medicine residency programs certified by the Japanese Medical Specialty Board. We should reveal the current situation surrounding Japanese residents more clearly and collaborate across organizations.[Image: see text]
