Data collection method was focus group discussions with the head of publichealth center (puskesmas) and preceptor. Data were analyzed through transcription, coding, categorization, and generating theme. The study was conducted from August 2015 to November 2016 in Sukabumi and Cianjur, West Java. Triangulation method and member check were conducted to elicit valid and reliable data. Two focus group discussions were conducted with 11 informants comprises 5 heads of puskesmas and 6 preceptors. There were 7 themes generated from the discussion. The themes were socialized and disseminate the information; collaboration and local government involvement; integration of education and service; encourage lifelong learning; encourage the improvement of performance; skill enhancement; and sustainability. Implementation of community-based medical education curriculum in rural areas has been implemented. Sustainability of the curriculum is needed to contribute to the improvement of community health status.
