ACCP Educational Resources for the American Board of Internal Medicine's (ABIM) Asthma Practice Improvement ModuleThe American Board of Internal Medicine has developed the Asthma Practice Improvement Module for use by physicians recertifying in internal medicine and its subspecialities. This self-evaluation tool will focus on physicians' actual practice patterns on the chronic illness, asthma. The module uses CD-ROM technology to provide a template for chart review of key patient care outcomes and processes, along with a review of key components of the practice system (information management, patient self-care support, access to the practice, patient safety measures, teamwork, and the practice's improvement process). The module also includes an anonymous telephone survey for patients that addresses functional status, self-care knowledge and behaviors, and satisfaction with care. ABIM aggregates these data to provide an interactive practice work-up report that enables the physician to develop an individualized practice improvement plan based on important and feasible goals for his/her own practice. Information on the Asthma Practice Improvement Module, released by ABIM in January, 2004, can be found at www.abim.org. The ACCP offers supplemental educational resources to assist physicians using this module. These can be found under the following categories: |
