Abstract

Background: Physician involvement in quality improvement and patient safety (QIPS) work is critical for success. It is often difficult to engage physicians in this work given competing priorities and lack of individual benefits for participation.

Program inception and development: The American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) Portfolio Program was created to establish a systematic process for review and approval of health care organizations' implementation of QIPS work and that allows organizations to offer continuing certification credit to physicians who meaningfully engage in that same work. What started as a pilot program in 2010 between Mayo Clinic and the American Boards of Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, and Pediatrics has grown to include more than 100 organizations in 2024.

Evolution of the program: The Portfolio Program has expanded from academic medical centers and medical schools to include government agencies, hospital groups, associations, and other types of health organizations. It has provided credit for more than 5,000 activities, and credit has been issued to physicians more than 60,000 times. To make QIPS submissions easier, standardized templates were created for certain types of quality improvement work; for example, the COVID-19 template facilitated the awarding of continuing certification credit to more than 10,000 physicians.

Conclusion: The ABMS Portfolio Program helps organizations establish a framework around QIPS work so physicians can receive continuing certification credit for their engagement. It also provides structure to establish processes and procedures for awarding credit and is flexible enough to meet the needs of each organization.

通过美国医学专科委员会组合计划让医生参与改进优先事项。
背景:医生参与质量改进和患者安全(QIPS)工作是成功的关键。考虑到各种优先事项相互竞争,而且参与这项工作缺乏个人利益,因此让医生参与这项工作通常比较困难:美国医学专科委员会(ABMS)的组合计划旨在建立一个系统的流程,用于审查和批准医疗机构实施 QIPS 工作的情况,并允许医疗机构为有意义地参与相同工作的医生提供继续认证学分。从 2010 年梅奥诊所与美国全科医学、内科医学和儿科医学委员会之间的试点项目开始,到 2024 年已发展到包括 100 多家机构:组合计划已从学术医学中心和医学院扩展到政府机构、医院集团、协会和其他类型的医疗机构。该计划已为 5,000 多项活动提供了信用额度,为医生发放的信用额度已超过 60,000 次。为了使提交 QIPS 更为容易,我们为某些类型的质量改进工作创建了标准化模板;例如,COVID-19 模板为 10,000 多名医生获得继续认证学分提供了便利:ABMS 项目组合计划帮助医疗机构围绕 QIPS 工作建立一个框架,使医生能够因参与工作而获得继续认证学分。它还为建立授予学分的流程和程序提供了结构,并具有足够的灵活性,以满足每个组织的需求。
