I believe that is (or at least was) true at Google - although from what I knew of the role, it sounded like it also covered what I would consider project management. (I think I would often consider program mangement to be coordinating/managing across multiple projects as part of a broader program of work, but I don't think that was what Google meant by that title.)
At Apple, the ubiquitous EPMs are Engineering Program Managers. But yep, I think we're just quibbling over terms that aren't standardized across (or even within) companies, but describe roles that are more or less the same.
