stepIII SCORE REPORTING

[Guest]

for candidated applying for residency, if they have recently written stepIII, do the programs get updated about the status of stepIII exam,
i have been told they do get updated for CSA exam, do the same occurs with stepIII also,
or candidate, on passing stepIII has to contact programs, inform them if they would consider his application now, since he has passed stepIII.

I will appreciate a reply.
