Medical EducationMy CFO’s Perspective Declining hospital margins Inefficiencies in the care model Declining GME funds Growing emphasis on education over service Time away for didactics, simulation “Explain to me again why I would rather pay for a resident than a PA or NP”
Congress should authorize the Secretary to change Medicare’s funding of graduate medical education (GME) to support the workforce skills needed in a delivery system that reduces cost growth while maintaining or improving quality. • The indirect medical education (IME) payments above the empirically justified amount should be removed from the IME adjustment and that sum would be used to fund the new performance-based GME program. To allow time for the development of standards, the new performance-based GME program should begin in three years (October 2013).
Value-Based Residency Training and Reimbursement:CMMI Project Proposal PI: Joel Katz MD Hypothesis: A new model of hospital reimbursement can improve: 1) Metrics of health status among patients cared for by trainees 2) Attainment and utilization of competencies directly related to value (quality per unit cost) and lead to more cost-efficient investments in physicians in training

How do we prepare our residents for what’s coming? Make outcomes analysis routine Give them the tools to improve eg. CPIP, Lean, Toyota Emphasize appropriateness eg. clinic, advanced care planning, palliative care Teach them some finance analysis and accounting Team training and leadership skills Patient experience training
