• Clinical Competency Committees
How the
residents

Clinical Competency Committee
• ACGME definition force us to broaden evaluation
committee membership, change work process

Expand beyond Program Directors
PD is not chair but member of the committee
Informal review -> formal assignment of milestone levels
CCC meets prior to resident semi-annual performance
evaluation (twice yearly)
– Calendar allows submission of milestone data to ACGME

CCC Operationalize
• 8-12 faculty member (PDs, FDs, core faculty)
• It’s tons of work (48 residents takes 5+ hours)
– Identify true stakeholders
• Subcomm assigned to review each class the provide
overview to full CCC
– Class APD and 1-2 other faculty
– 12-16 hours; review data, discuss, create report
– Subgroup aware of class norms, follows individual
throughout training
• CCC ensured program norms between classes
Performance Dashboard
• Ideally pushes data to CCC members, residents in
organized one stop shop format
• Creating viable dashboard requires lots of IT
muscle (residents faculty looking for fault)
• Avoid getting trapped in the process - $$$
– Should there be a centralized resource?

computer information on accurate patient
care and documentation
X
Recommends systems re-design
for improved computerized processes
Gathering Data = Hassle Factor
• Mistrust of data by residents, faculty
• No good system to collect, lots of staff and
faculty time
• Residents see where data being applied
Final Milestone Rating Decisions
Preparing Residents for Milestones
• Annual Retreat – we’ve talked NAS for the past 3 years
• Self assessment – familiarize res w/ concepts, rankings
• They don’t care about it until they get tripped up by
the new rules
• Have to make Milestones relevant to them
• Include residents in plans & changes, this creates buy
in (even if only in token way)
• Make it clear this is moving target, it will change!
Residents more
invested than faculty
Milestones likely to be part of their
future as physicians
• Maintenance of certification for Board status
• Hospital privileging - ongoing CQI initiatives
• Performance data have many uses
