| Editor's Picks A study of Press Ganey surveys found that patients gave higher scores to their physicians if they shared the same race/ethnicity. Eighty-eight percent of physicians received the maximum rating on the patient experience survey from patients of the same race/ethnicity. This was compared to 82% receiving the maximum rating from patients of a different race/ethnicity. Although writing meeting minutes is a tedious task, no one can dispute their importance. Besides reporting Milestone data to the ACGME in the Accreditation Data System (ADS) twice a year, your institutional GME office may also require specific documentation. Thus, it is important that your clinical competency committee (CCC) meeting be documented accurately and thoroughly by a designated individual. This person can be a CCC member, a secretary, or—most likely—the program coordinator. We continue our coverage of HCPro’s latest survey of residency coordinators this month with a look at compensation by respondents’ years of experience and the state in which they work. If you’re interested in other survey results, please see our previous editions of RPA. Marketing Spotlight The Guide for Graduate Medical Education Offices and Program Coordinators provides the office of graduate medical education (GME) and program coordinators the guidance they need to successfully run a GME program together. Author Vicki Hamm, C-TAGME, provides how-to guidance and tools for implementing ACGME Institutional Requirements, institutional policies, crafting resident/fellow contracts, managing evaluations, maintaining program accreditation, and other daily duties. This book contains sample policies and forms to customize for your institution. This book will guide your GME operations so that you can achieve compliance with ACGME requirements; support your program directors, and faculty; and most importantly, produce trainees who become skilled physicians as they move from the educational continuum to the independent practice of medicine.
