Overview

Randomized trial improves faculty confidence and commitment to Health Systems Science in medical education.

Key Points

  • The report aims to describe and evaluate the Health Systems Science Scholars Program (HSS-SP) designed for faculty training in Health Systems Science.
  • 12-month HSS-SP included curriculum development, assessment design, and leadership training.
  • Training formats involved workshops, webinars, mentoring, and final projects.
  • Evaluation focused on program completion, satisfaction, learning, and Health Systems Science integration.
  • 108 scholars participated in three cohorts, showing support from leaders of 72 out of 155 US medical schools.
  • Significant improvements in perceived confidence and commitment to HSS were observed post-program completion.
  • 56 final projects targeted the implementation of HSS in medical curricula, utilizing innovative teaching methods.
