Purpose: The U.S. population is rapidly aging. The supply of surgeons needed to meet this demand should be evaluated. This study evaluated the trends in supply of Medicare surgeons by specialty and by U.S. state and region.
Method: All surgeons associated with a National Provider Identifier for cardiothoracic surgery, colorectal surgery, general surgery, gynecologic oncology, hand surgery, neurosurgery, obstetrics-gynecology, ophthalmology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, orthopedic surgery, otolaryngology, plastic and reconstructive surgery, surgical oncology, urology, and vascular surgery from 2013 to 2019 on the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services website were included. The absolute number of physicians was adjusted per 100,000 Medicare beneficiaries. Annual change was calculated by linear regression model, and the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) was calculated per specialty.
Results: The absolute number of physicians per 100,000 beneficiaries increased in 6 of 15 specialties during the study period. Vascular surgery had the largest annual increase (+0.23; CAGR, +2.75%), and obstetrics-gynecology had the largest annual decrease (-1.08; CAGR, -1.44%). Surgical oncology showed the largest positive CAGR (+4.20%). Oral and maxillofacial surgery had the largest negative CAGR (-2.86%). The Northeast was above the national average in supply for each specialty. The Midwest had the most specialties with positive CAGRs. The South did not meet the national average for physicians in any specialty.
Conclusions: This analysis of 15 surgical specialties provides important context to predicted physician shortages to the Medicare population. The study found geographic variation by region across specialty, which has important implications for health care planning from the level of undergraduate medical education to provision of hospital resources. Overall, the supply of surgeons across all specialties may not be sufficient to meet the demand of the rapidly aging U.S. population. Future study is needed to evaluate why surgeons are leaving the Medicare program.

Every novel curriculum begins with a needs assessment. A general needs assessment identifies the problem that a curriculum seeks to address, and it clearly delineates the gap between the current and ideal state of affairs. 1 Building on the general needs assessment, a targeted needs assessment refines those needs to the specific learners and their environment. 1-3 The two are a continuum and constitute the first step in curriculum design.

Purpose: The authors describe use of the workplace-based assessment (WBA) coactivity scale according to entrustable professional activities (EPAs) and assessor type to examine how diverse assessors rate medical students using WBAs.
Method: A WBA data collection system was launched at Oregon Health and Science University to visualize learner competency in various clinical settings to foster EPA assessment. WBA data from January 14 to June 18, 2021, for medical students (all years) were analyzed. The outcome variable was level of supervisor involvement in each EPA, and the independent variable was assessor type.
Results: A total of 7,809 WBAs were included. Most fourth-, third-, and second-year students were assessed by residents or fellows (755 [49.5%], 1,686 [48.5%], and 918 [49.9%], respectively) and first-year students by attending physicians (803 [83.0%]; P < .001). Attendings were least likely to use the highest rating of 4 (1 was available just in case; 2,148 [56.7%] vs 2,368 [67.7%] for residents; P < .001). Learners more commonly sought WBAs from attendings for EPA 2 (prioritize differential diagnosis), EPA 5 (document clinical encounter), EPA 6 (provide oral presentation), EPA 7 (form clinical questions and retrieve evidence-based medicine), and EPA 12 (perform general procedures of a physician). Residents and fellows were more likely to assess students on EPA 3 (recommend and interpret diagnostic and screening tests), EPA 4 (enter and discuss orders and prescriptions), EPA 8 (give and receive patient handover for transitions in care), EPA 9 (collaborate as member of interprofessional team), EPA 10 (recognize and manage patient in need of urgent care), and EPA 11 (obtain informed consent).
Conclusions: Learners preferentially sought resident versus attending supervisors for different EPA assessments. Future research should investigate why learners seek different assessors more frequently for various EPAs and if assessor type variability in WBA levels holds true across institutions.

Purpose: Supervisors may be prone to implicit (unintentional) bias when granting procedural autonomy to trainees due to the subjectivity of autonomy decisions. The authors aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the differences in perceptions of procedural autonomy granted to physician trainees based on gender and/or race.
Method: MEDLINE, Embase, CENTRAL, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched (search date: January 5, 2022) for studies reporting quantitative gender- or race-based differences in perceptions of procedural autonomy of physician trainees. Reviewers worked in duplicate for article selection and data abstraction. Primary measures of interest were self-reported and observer-rated procedural autonomy. Meta-analysis pooled differences in perceptions of procedural autonomy based on trainee gender.
Results: The search returned 2,714 articles, of which 16 were eligible for inclusion. These reported data for 6,109 trainees (median, 90 per study) and 2,763 supervisors (median, 54 per study). No studies investigated differences in perceptions of autonomy based on race. In meta-analysis of disparities between genders in autonomy ratings (positive number favoring female trainees), pooled standardized mean differences were -0.12 (95% confidence interval [CI], -0.19 to -0.04; P = .003; n = 10 studies) for trainee self-rated autonomy and -0.05 (95% CI, -0.11 to 0.01; P = .07; n = 9 studies) for supervisor ratings of autonomy.
Conclusions: Limited evidence suggests that female trainees perceived that they received less procedural autonomy than did males. Further research exploring the degree of gender- and race-based differences in procedural autonomy, and factors that influence these differences is warranted.

Purpose: Clinical reasoning, a complex construct integral to the practice of medicine, has been challenging to define, teach, and assess. Programmatic assessment purports to overcome validity limitations of judgments made from individual assessments through proportionality and triangulation processes. This study explored a pragmatic approach to the programmatic assessment of clinical reasoning.
Method: The study analyzed data from 2 student cohorts from the University of Utah School of Medicine (UUSOM) (n = 113 in cohort 1 and 119 in cohort 2) and 1 cohort from the University of Colorado School of Medicine (CUSOM) using assessment data that spanned from 2017 to 2021 (n = 199). The study methods included the following: (1) asking faculty judges to categorize student clinical reasoning skills, (2) selecting institution-specific assessment data conceptually aligned with clinical reasoning, (3) calculating correlations between assessment data and faculty judgments, and (4) developing regression models between assessment data and faculty judgments.
Results: Faculty judgments of student clinical reasoning skills were converted to a continuous variable of clinical reasoning struggles, with mean (SD) ratings of 2.93 (0.27) for the 232 UUSOM students and 2.96 (0.17) for the 199 CUSOM students. A total of 67 and 32 discrete assessment variables were included from the UUSOM and CUSOM, respectively. Pearson r correlations were moderate to strong between many individual and composite assessment variables and faculty judgments. Regression models demonstrated an overall adjusted R2 (standard error of the estimate) of 0.50 (0.19) for UUSOM cohort 1, 0.28 (0.15) for UUSOM cohort 2, and 0.30 (0.14) for CUSOM.
Conclusions: This study represents an early pragmatic exploration of regression analysis as a potential tool for operationalizing the proportionality and triangulation principles of programmatic assessment. The study found that programmatic assessment may be a useful framework for longitudinal assessment of complicated constructs, such as clinical reasoning.
