A Framework and Curriculum for Training Residents in Population Health.

There is increasing imperative to train residents in population health. The Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) enhanced its mission with revised Common Program Requirements (CPRs), which were fully implemented on July 1, 2020. The revised CPRs state ACGME's mission: "The development of physicians in GME focused on excellence in delivery of safe, equitable, affordable, quality care; and the health of the populations they serve." The new CPRs clearly articulate the need for graduate medical education (GME) trainees to develop and understand population health concepts during their GME experience, including social determinants of health and community impact. However, currently there is no standardized and widely available curriculum for GME to implement these revised CPRs. This paper proposes a curriculum in population health management for GME, which was developed in 1 institution, using a blend of didactic and experiential learning. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
