BACKGROUND: Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA) and competencies represent components of a competency-based education framework. EPAs are assessed based on the level of supervision (LOS) necessary to perform the activity safely and effectively. The broad competencies, broken down into narrower subcompetencies, are assessed using milestones, observable behaviors of one's abilities along a developmental spectrum. Integration of the two methods, accomplished by mapping the most relevant subcompetencies to each EPA, may provide a cross check between the two forms of assessment and uncover those subcompetencies that have the greatest influence on the EPA assessment.

OBJECTIVES: We hypothesized that 1) there would be …

BACKGROUND: Although Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) regarding pediatric training in care for children with medical complexity (CMC) exist, it is unknown what US pediatric training programs provide for education related to care of CMC and whether educators perceive that pediatric residents are prepared to care for CMC upon graduation.

METHODS: From June, 2021 through March 2022, we surveyed US pediatric residency program delegates about practice settings, current educational offerings, perception of resident preparedness regarding care of CMC, and likelihood to implement CMC education in the future.

RESULTS: Response rate was 29% (56 /195). A third of responding programs (34%, n …
