Re: October 14 AIM Program Planning Committee Meeting 

Date: Thursday, October 7, 2010 

On behalf of the Administrators of Internal Medicine (AIM), thank you for serving on the AIM 

Program Planning Committee. 

The committee will meet in person Thursday, October 14, 2010, from 3:45 p.m. to 5:00 

p.m. CDT in Conference Room 16 (third floor) during the 31st Annual AIM Educational 

Conference, which will take place October 13-16 at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter in 

San Antonio, TX, as part of Academic Internal Medicine Week 2010. 

The agenda and background material is posted as a single PDF at 

http://www.im.org/Meetings/Pages/AIMPPC.aspx. AIM does not provide Internet access in 

the meeting room, so please download and review the file before the meeting. The Internet 

access that you purchase in your hotel room will not be available in the meeting space. 

It is my understanding that everyone except Amy Elliott, Marc Halman, and Robert Young is 

available to participate in the committee meeting. If your availability has changed, please 

contact me at (202) 861-9351 or khayden@im.org immediately. Unfortunately, due to the 

demands of managing Academic Internal Medicine Week 2010 logistics throughout the day, I 

will be unable to participate in the meeting; however, AIM Meetings Assistant Samantha 

Engler will be participating in the meeting on my behalf. 

During the meeting, the committee should plan to: 

Discuss aspects of the 31st Annual AIM Educational Conference that went well and 

aspects that could be improved for future meetings. 

Confirm representatives for the Academic Internal Medicine Week 2011 task forces. 

Select course directors for the 2011 AIM Precourse for New Administrators. 

Discuss potential plenary ideas for the 32nd Annual AIM Educational Conference. 

In preparation for the committee meeting, AIM Program Planning Committee Chair Lisa 

Runco asks that you create and bring with you a list of at least two ideas for potential meeting 

themes, plenary session topics, and speakers. Please consider: 

Presentations you have heard at other meetings 

Presentations you have seen at your institution 

Speakers or topics you have heard about from colleagues 

Topics you would like to present yourself 

As a reminder, the committee’s first planning conference call will be held Tuesday, November 

16, 2010, from 2:00 p.m. EST to 3:00 p.m. EST. 

Again, thanks. If you have questions about this memorandum, the committee, or the meeting, 

please contact me at (202) 861-9351 or khayden@im.org.

Program Planning Responsibilities 

AAIM Program Planning Task Force 

Each association should name one representative to this task force, which will be charged with 

planning the AAIM joint plenary session(s). The task force is responsible for developing topics 

as well as selecting and inviting potential speakers; in addition, the task force representatives 

should ensure that the selected topics are of interest to their constituent organizations or that their 

organizations’ perspectives are represented. The work of the task force should begin in October 

2010 and the sessions and speakers should be finalized by February; the work of the task force 

will be completed primarily by monthly conference calls. At the start of the planning process 

(October/November), the representatives should discuss possible collaboration on plenary or 

workshop sessions, share ideas for sessions that may be of interest to an audience other than their 

own, and ensure overlap is appropriate or eliminated. 

AAIM Workshop Review Task Force 

Each association holding a primary meeting should name three representatives to this task 

force; associations not holding a primary meeting may name two representatives. This task 

force will be charged with approving the single workshop submission form, selecting workshops 

for the joint workshop session, and selecting workshops for the individual meeting workshop 

sessions. The purpose of removing the responsibility of selecting the workshops from individual 

program planning committees is to ensure that all associations have equal access to the best and 

most appropriate workshop submissions. It also removes the necessity for staff “mediation” 

among the associations. The work of the task force would begin in January with the form 

review, but the bulk of the work would be completed in March and April via email and 

conference call. 

AAIM Abstract Review Task Force 

Each association holding a primary meeting should name three representatives to this task 

force; additional abstract reviewers may be requested by the individual associations but those 

individuals will not serve on the task force. A single form will be created for all members of 

AAIM. However, this single form will require submitters to indicate which primary meeting it 

best suits; only one meeting can be selected. Each association holding a primary meeting is 

responsible for selecting poster presentations from among the submissions it receives. Each 

association will be assigned a number of poster “slots” in proportion to the number of 

submissions it receives and the total poster space available in the exhibit hall. Members of the 

task force will be charged with approving the single online abstract submission form, 

determining the rating scale and criteria for abstract review, determining a single method of 

feedback to abstract authors, and Reviewing and selecting the abstracts that will be presented as 

posters.

October 22-25, 2009 

Philadelphia Marriott Downtown 

Philadelphia, PA 

Evaluation Summary 

What topics would you like to see addressed at future AAIM meetings? 

How to design medical school vision and goals in keeping with LCME requirements. 

Great meeting, runs well 

Patient involvement in medical education; teaching patient-centered care and the medical home 

Medical school expansion in the setting of budgetary constraints. 

The impact of the electronic medical record on the medical student in the hospital setting..is it compromising 

their clinical skills.... 

A CDIM plenary on the topic of “should student evaluations of faculty be anonymous?” 

Cutting the cord--when to disenroll students from medical school. Medical School Education Reform 100 yrs 

post Flexner--is medical school broken or is it the environment? 

1. Helping students to develop their personal learning porfolios 2. Helping 4th year students transition into 

internship 

Technology enhanced educational topics 

Would like to see topics to empower Clerkship Coordinators to better assist Clerkship Directors 

Teaching residents to teach Using Camtasia and other electronic media for teaching 

Teaching lifelong learning skills to students and residents, incorporating systems based practice education on 

gme and ume levels, career advising and development for ume/gme. 

Salaries/FTE /protected time---is there a consensus...? 

Healthcare reform/political issues 

Would continue to emphasize educational research and innovation through the CDIM meetings--there is a 

strong and sustained tradition of this venue as an important forum for the development of young investigators 

and scholars. 

Provide scheduled networking opportunities /discussion forums for individuals to develop collaborative 

research or projects. 

The pros and cons of performance assessment. 

Student Advocacy 

EMR use for students (including how to evaluate clinical reasoning in templated notes); use of Sim Man; 

developing action plans to link to feedback after direct observation (beyond “read more on X”) 

Professionalism 

I know that theory is a big part of this type of meeting, but many of the discussions I attended were big on 

discussion of problems, but a bit thin on giving specifics for solutions. 

Analysis of the dean’s letter - what to PD’s look for. Chair letters....why do PD’s continue to want these rather 

than LOR’s from someone the student actually worked with? Use of simulation/teaching procedures in 

clerkships...necessary? More on integrated clerkships. More on sub-internship rotations and creative 

curriculum ideas. 

The pros and cons of early clinical exposure 

1) Remediation strategies 2) Improving student satisfaction 

(1) what are career paths for site directors and clerkship directors after 5-10 years in that job? (2) what are 

mechanisms to get feedback on your students once they go to residency programs all over the country? 

Continued emphasis on CBET across the continnum; evaluation and assessment; curriculum development 

Professionalism in Digital Age workshop created a lot of conversation. I would like to see this as the point 

counterpoint plenary session, i.e. should we have policies regarding the use of social media with residents and 

students? should we let our students/residents “friend” us, should we let our patient’s “friend” us, etc. 

“Should we be graduating ALL medical students?” (or should we only be graduating doctors whom we feel 

comfortable referring our family members to”.

The best ways to remediate learners with deficits of certain skills such as medical knowledge, clinical 

reasoning, interpersonnal and communication skills, professionalism, etc. 

Standard grade distributions for all IM clerkships with a taskforce to discuss and set standards (i.e. 25% 

honors, 40% high pass, etc) Also, LCME competencies and anchoring language that could be used for 

different stages of learners. I.e. LCME 2nd year competencies, LCME 3rd year competencies, with a 

consensus of what each year should be capable of. 

Compare IC plan in diff institutions, writing a business plan, impact of technology in operations 

(accounability, efficiency, tranparency, etc) 

Best practices in Grants Mgmt, Finance, Coding, othre mission areas. Bright Ideas sessions re Tools that can 

be developed and shared in mission areas. 

Finance management. see how other medical institutions manage their finance, such as how to make 

breakeven, how to evaluate the physician’s work. etc. 

Always interested to dive more into departmental tax and funding structures as well as financial system and 

tools that people are using 

More on consolidatation, staff benchmarking, in light of Dale’s presentation maybe more on leadership 

(perhaps a panel) 

Health care reform. 

Patient throughput - how best to improve or best practice aligning incentives - chiefs and administrators more 

multi institutional perspectives 

Departmental investments in faculty career development awards from the Chair’s and Administrator’s 

perspectives. 

More Chair- Administrator interaction sessions. 

New healthcare bill and ramifications for the AMC and its physicians 

Continuous Improvement Programs; Working with the quality team at your institution; Coping with largescale 

change -- things to consider when approaching overhauls of organizations; Toxic Leadership -- how to 

deal with those awful faculty who somehow landed in powerful roles; how to get faculty buy-in for changes to 

clinical processes; or how do we get clinical faculty think they are part of the team, and not just players on a 

rented field?; What do you measure? a comparison across organizations that track different indicators of 

success; Challenges to clinical operations in the academic setting 

Financial Administration - various approaches to taxing disciplines. 

Devote a larger block of time for interest groups. So much is discussed at those sessions that a 1-1/2 hour 

session just isn’t long enough. 

I would like to see more information on clinical matters. 

EMR and Mineable data Production targets for teaching faculty 

The authority of the chairman overriding the program director’s decisions 

How about more career development for Associate Program Directors? Actually HELPFUL sessions on 

writing up programmatic innovations, for example. How to get published. What are the journals in our field? 

(Maybe APDIM should have its own journal). I have attended workshops that attempt to do this, but they have 

not helped. They are pretty unwieldy, especially after we break up into small groups. I want to build a career 

as a medical educator and I feel like APDIM rarely helps me. 

More attention on how programs oversee fellowships at PD level (plenty of attention at PA level). 

Funding Options for GME given Health Care Reform proposals 

Integration of medical education with medical school and residency curriculum 

IOM 16 hour requirement...how did they do it pt centered medical home 

Faculty development and mentoring 

Preparing residents for the real world...how to teach them the things we aren’t allowed to. 

For APDIM web site: send a mass email when the web site is updated (E tools, Survey results, etc.) to remind 

us of the great resources there. 

Self directed learning evaluation models. 

More specific discussions of admitting systems that meet duty hour regulations as well as educational 

objectives 

Incenting Faculty to teach in a productivity environment 

Same subject area

More ambulatory topics 

Use of Portfolios for monitoring milestones. More on EMR and residency training. 

More topics related to primary care curriculum 

DVD’s of Masters giving feedback, making teaching/bedside rounds, giving bad news, dealing with dying, 

dealing with drug seekers, dealing with angry patients, with group discussions and follow up multiple choice 

test to emphasis pearls. 

How to document problems with a resident effectively so that there is no difficulty discontinuing their 

contract. Recruiting teaching attendings... do we pay them? Examples of call schedules that comply with 

the 80 hour work rule. Curriculum for teaching attendings to use. 

Curriculum redesign, efficient use of staff resources 

Portfolios 

Career development for PDs/APDs 

Conversations between the organizations (APM and APDIM, for example) - Maybe have all sessions open to 

all participants. I might have learned some interesting stuff from the CDIM workshops. 

Nothing comes to mind that you’re not thinking of. 

How to improve daily teaching/management rounds with residents. 

GME funding (in more detail) 

Faculty development 

Faculty development; how PDs can be ‘teach the teachers for faculty development; how they can lead fac 

development initiatives at their institution 

Can we have the APDIM listserve back? 

Continuity as the organizing principle of medical education. presenter David Hirsh 

Topics related to administrators/coordinators who multi-task between students, residents, and/or fellows--this 

requires high competency and organizational skills. 

Art of teaching 

The topics are excellent. I would like to see APDIM address in a plenary session, the issue that all the 

different “special interest groups” in residency may be working against one another. 

More focused faculty development “curricula.” Continue work on clarification of ACGME guidelines and 

criteria. 

Supervision of trainees 

Health Policy Projects 

Collaboration between CDIM & APDIM: more communication and collaboration between the two groups 

would be hugely helpful for internal medicine as a whole 

More geared to community programs and those with fmg’s 

More on CBET...this is what we need to do (after we get over the distraction of duty hours). 

Ambulatory rotation, professionalism and remediation, different remediations, morning reports 

we need a series of “how tos” on implementing the new program requiremetns--getting meaningful feedback 

from patients, educating key faculty as evaluators-- 

More Milestone-based assessment tools and evaluation structure and process 

Development of core faculty as advisors 

APDIM has done a superb job of varying topics year to year while maintaining emphasis on commonly 

encountered issues for PDs. 

APDIM should include discussion about residency retreats and how these can be used to enhance teaching the 

core competencies. APDIM should also offer workshops as an alternative activity while committee meetings 

are occurring. 

Novel funding sources Systems based approaches to increased patient safety that can be utilized in residency 

programs Available colloborative efforts that multiple programs could participate in, especially community 

programs 

1. how to podcast core lectures 2. how to post morning report and core lectures on line 3. how to create 

patient registries to facilitate resident QI projects 4. how to develop, create and post on-line learning modules 

for residents 

Workshop about residents’ daily schedule and how to make that work.
