BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the shortcomings of our health care delivery system for vulnerable populations and created a need to rethink health disparity education in medical training. We examined how the early COVID-19 pandemic impacted third-year medical students' attitudes, perceptions, and sense of responsibility regarding health care delivery for vulnerable populations. METHODS: Third-year family medicine clerkship students at a large, private medical school in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania responded to a reflection assignment prompt asking how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted their thoughts about health care delivery for vulnerable populations in mid-2020 (N=59)...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: It is documented that some of the opioids prescribed to manage chronic pain are diverted and used for nonmedical purposes. We investigated whether a skill-based, chronic pain management (CPM) educational program could improve first-year family medicine residents' comfort, knowledge, and concerns in assessing and managing patients who use opioids for chronic noncancer pain. METHODS: A total of 72 first-year residents (four cohorts of 18) participated in a 3-month CPM training intervention that consisted of didactic lectures, objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) activities, and post-OSCE debriefing with faculty, one being a behavioral health specialist, between 2017 and 2020...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:  Despite the requirements of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) to provide feedback, assessments are often not meeting the needs of resident learners. The objective of this study was to explore residents' approach to reviewing, interpreting, and incorporating the feedback provided in written faculty assessments. METHODS:  We conducted semistructured interviews with 14 family medicine residents...

PURPOSE: Rural family medicine residency programs (RFMRPs) encounter unique hardships that threaten their sustainability and efficacy despite their recent success at addressing the rural physician shortage. The aim of this study was to explore strategies employed by RFMRP program directors from across the United States to strengthen their programs in the context of evolving paradigms in graduate medical education (GME). METHODS: The authors conducted a qualitative semistructured telephone interview with 19 program directors of RFMRPs in June and July of 2020...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Family medicine offers the opportunity to integrate advance care planning into routine primary care, connecting relationship-centered orientation with thoughtful action before a terminal diagnosis. However, physicians are undertrained in end-of-life counseling and care. To address this educational gap, we had clerkship students complete their own advance directives and submit a written reflection about the experience. The aim of this study was to learn about how students report on the value of completing their own advance directives, according to their written reflections...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:  Current strategies for obesity management in primary care leave many patients inadequately treated or unable to access treatment entirely. We aimed to evaluate a comprehensive, primary care clinic-based weight management program's clinical effectiveness in a community practice setting.  Methods:  This was an 18-month pre/postintervention study. We collected demographic and anthropometric data on patients enrolled in a primary care-based weight management program...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Family medicine residents are scored via milestones created by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) on various clinical domains, including communication. Communication involves a resident's ability to set an agenda, but this is rarely taught in formal education. Our study aimed to examine the relationship between ACGME Milestone achievement and ability to set a visit agenda, as measured by direct observation (DO) forms. METHODS: We examined biannual (December, June) ACGME scores for family medicine residents at an academic institution from 2015-2020...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Burnout is prevalent among clinicians and faculty. We sought to understand the impact of a recognition program designed to reduce burnout and affect engagement and job satisfaction in a large academic family medicine department. METHODS: A recognition program was created in which three clinicians and faculty from the department were randomly selected each month to be recognized ("awardees"). Each awardee was asked to honor a person who had supported them (a "hidden hero" [HH])...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The associations between training length and clinical knowledge are unknown. We compared family medicine in-training examination (ITE) scores among residents who trained in 3- versus 4-year programs and to national averages over time. METHODS: In this prospective case-control study, we compared the ITE scores of 318 consenting residents in 3-year programs to 243 who completed 4 years of training between 2013 through 2019. We obtained scores from the American Board of Family Medicine...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Little is known about how rural and urban family medicine residencies compare in preparing physicians for practice. This study compared the perceptions of preparation for practice and actual postgraduation scope of practice (SOP) between rural and urban residency program graduates. METHODS: We analyzed data on 6,483 early-career, board-certified physicians surveyed 2016-2018, 3 years after residency graduation, and 44,325 later-career board-certified physicians surveyed 2014-2018, every 7 to 10 years after initial certification...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The quality of training in rural family medicine (FM) residencies has been questioned. Our objective was to assess differences in academic performance between rural and urban FM residencies. METHODS: We used American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) data from 2016-2018 residency graduates. Medical knowledge was measured by the ABFM in-training examination (ITE) and Family Medicine Certification Examination (FMCE). The milestones included 22 items across six core competencies...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to explore how to use sponsoring, coaching, and mentoring (SCM) for faculty development by clarifying the functions embedded in SCM. The study aims to ensure that department chairs can be intentional in providing those functions and/or playing those roles for the benefit of all their faculty. METHODS: We used qualitative, semistructured interviews in this study. We followed a purposeful sampling strategy to recruit a diverse sample of family medicine department chairs across the United States...
