26. www.aamc.org/cir Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) What is the UMLS? The UMLS, or Unified Medical Language System, is a set of files and software that brings together many health and biomedical vocabularies and standards to enable interoperability between computer systems. You can use the UMLS to enhance or develop applications, such as electronic health records, classification tools, dictionaries and language translators.

27. www.aamc.org/cir SNOMED The Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine (SNOMED) is a systematic, computer-processable collection of medical terms, in human and veterinary medicine, to provide codes, terms, synonyms and definitions which cover anatomy, diseases, findings, procedures, microorganisms, substances, etc.

38. www.aamc.org/cir Curriculum Administration Issues Vendor System Challenges/Solutions Training Expectation options Keyword options Data Entry Reporting Data Entry Issues Alignment of CMS fields to CI fields Tedious vs Batch Mapping Time

39. www.aamc.org/cir Curriculum Administration Issues Data Collection Issues Busy faculty – Faculty Development to come to common understanding Faculty and staff time to document Lack of administrative support -- too many other issues

40. www.aamc.org/cir Curriculum Administration Issues Using Curriculum Data to Support Curriculum Committees) Annual Review of coverage of Program Expectations Annual Review of coverage of Mapped Content USMLE Reports Graduation Questionnaire Instructional / Assessment Methods Vertical / Horizontal Integration Course Reviews Content Initiatives Continuous Quality Improvement

41. www.aamc.org/cir Release School Name (2015-2016) Gateway Exams (2016-2017) CEPAER Documentation (2016-2017) New Data Initiatives

42. www.aamc.org/cir Using Program Description to Designate Approval of School Name linked to CI Reports A Brief History CurrMIT allowed schools to run reports to find schools offering particular content or using particular instructional or assessment methods or resources Received both positively and negatively To expedite implementation of CI and ensure highest participation rate, schools were told all reports would be aggregate Received both positively and negatively

43. www.aamc.org/cir Using Program Description to Designate Approval of School Name linked to CI Reports Solution: Allow schools to choose whether they wish to have their name available for benchmarking and research School name will be in a separate data file – no link to actual data in report Schools Included in This Report link will include: School Name, Curriculum Dean Contact Information, Primary CI Contact Information

44. www.aamc.org/cir Using Program Description to Designate Approval of School Name linked to CI Reports Implementation August 1, 2016, for 2015-2016 Data: Use Program Description to include the text: ReleaseName=Y OR ReleaseName=N No ReleaseName text will be the same as ReleaseName=N This should not require changes to programs – simply adding text to a field For systems that do not have this option, an e-mail can be sent to ci@aamc.org.ci@aamc.org E-mail will need to be sent each year.

45. www.aamc.org/cir Gateway Exams: Major Exams for Promotion or Graduation Often multi-day exams Not related to a particular course or clerkship Often a series of unqueued cases Examples: Senior Clinical Competency Exam; CCX; Post-Clerkship Exam Best Practice for ‘Gateway Exams’

46. www.aamc.org/cir Best Practice for ‘Gateway Exams’ Documenting Gateway Exams: Separate Sequence Block Duration expected for average student Include all Assessment Methods as Single Event (e.g., All Cases) or Split into Multiple Events (e.g., Case 1, Case 2.) No Instructional Methods Include Keywords for Content if possible Reporting is post-exam and aggregate If exam is split into multiple Academic Levels, reference the AL where most of the exam occurs Use Sequence Block Description to provide innovations, information such as year exam was implemented, etc.

47. www.aamc.org/cir Best Practices for CEPAER Documentation CEPAER: Core EPAs for Entering Residency 13 EPAs Linked to PCRS Competencies In Pilot Phase (10 schools) Not a requirement, but being documented at many schools Document as CEPAER-01 – CEPAER-13 Detailed information (included PCRS mapping) can be found at: https://www.aamc.org/initiatives/coreepas/ https://www.aamc.org/initiatives/coreepas/
