Preparing the Future Primary Care Workforce Together Primary Care Faculty Development Initiative (PCFDI) Technical Assistance Webinar November 27, 2012 Patrice Eiff, MD, PCFDI Project Director P Nov
Technical Assistance: Agenda • Overview of the PCFDI program • Application Process • Eligibility • Application Requirements: 2 Steps • Review Criteria • Timeline • Your Questions
Medical Education Reform • Recognition of the need for reform of graduate medical education widespread • Not sufficiently meeting the needs of the public for a 21st century healthcare system • Primary care an essential core of successful systems
Fundamental Question • How can we train learners to practice in patient centered-medical homes when the faculty do not have the skills to practice in these new models of care with the required skills? Particularly those skills in practice-based learning and improvement and systems-based practice?
Working Through the Answer • National faculty development effort that involves the three primary care disciplines of IM, FM and Pediatrics • A new model of primary care within the context of the PCMH that serves as a clinical laboratory in which we can study the effects of our educational interventions on patient care outcomes
Our Vision: Transform GME and do it together across disciplines • Application of learning in a competent local clinical environment • Train the trainers back home • Create and evaluate a learning community approach at the local/regional level • All three disciplines collaborate and speak with one voice…more likely to obtain support at the institutional level
Our Funders • HRSA • Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation • American Board of Internal Medicine • American Board of Pediatrics • American Board of Family Medicine
Our Steering Committee • Family Medicine • Larry Green, Sam Jones, Perry Pugno • Internal Medicine • Eric Holmboe, Bill Iobst, David Gary Smith, Leslie Tucker • Pediatrics • Carol Carraccio, Gail McGuinness • Evaluation • Patrice Eiff (Project Director), Patty Carney
