Add Your Voice: Vetting the Entrustable Professional Activities for HPM Physicians (TH335)

Abstract

•Discuss the progress of the AAHPM Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)/Curricular Milestones Workgroup.•Review the latest working draft of HPM EPAs.•Provide input through a structured vetting process on how your own experience as an HPM clinician and/or educator is reflected in the EPAs. The AAHPM Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs)/Curricular Milestones Workgroup is tasked with leading a consensus process to define these key educational components for our field. These two educational frameworks will combine to define the critical tasks, competencies, and assessment methods for the HPM physician’s role in the future. This session will provide an update from the workgroup on this process and invite input from attendees on how their experience as HPM clinicians/educators is reflected in the drafted EPAs. After a brief overview and update, the majority of time will be spent in a vetting process, during which small groups will review specific EPAs and have the opportunity to respond to formative questions from the workgroup. Attendee responses will impact the content of the EPAs going forward. This session will be interactive and allow attendees a glimpse of the future list of HPM EPAs to be released in June 2015.
