Competency-based medical education (CBME) is a patient-centered and learner-focused approach to education where curricula are delivered in a manner tailored to the individuals’ learning needs, and assessment focuses on ensuring trainees achieve requisite and clearly specified learning outcomes. Despite calls to focus assessment on what matters for patients. In this article, the authors explore one aspect of this next era: the use of electronic health record clinical performance indicators, such as Resident-Sensitive Quality Measures (RSQMs) and TRainee Attributable and Automatable Care Evaluations in Real-time (TRACERs), for learner assessment. They elaborate on both the promise and the potential limitations of using such measures in a program of learner assessment.
