Importance: The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted graduate medical education, compelling training programs to abruptly transition to virtual educational formats despite minimal experience or proficiency. We surveyed residents from a national sample of internal medicine (IM) residency programs to describe their experiences with the transition to virtual morning report (MR), a highly valued core educational conference.
Objective: Assess resident views about virtual MR content and teaching strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Background: Residents rate morning report (MR) as an essential educational activity. Little contemporary evidence exists to guide medical educators on the optimal content or most effective delivery strategies, particularly in the era of resident duty-hour limitations and shifts towards learner-centric pedagogy in graduate medical education.
Objective: Assess resident views about MR content and teaching strategies.
Objectives: To determine whether treating hospitalists can identify and address early postdischarge problems through a structured telephone call.
Study Design: Prospective cohort study.
Methods: We studied patients insured through a managed care program who were discharged from a general internal medicine service of a university-affiliated public safety net hospital (Denver Health Medical Center) between March 1, 2012, and October 31, 2013.
