ABSTRACT
Objective:
Surgeons comprise 2% of HPM-trained physicians. Little is known about the perceived value of HPM training to the surgeon or medical community. We aim to demonstrate the value of HPM fellowship training to surgeons and surgical practice from the point of view of HPM fellowship trained surgeons.Design:
A qualitative analysis was performed using semi-structured zoom interviews that elicited the lived experiences of HPM trained surgeons. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis.Setting:
Researchers were from the University of Kansas School of Medicine and the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Participants were trained and worked across the United States in a variety of settings.Participants:
Eligibility included training in general surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, or affiliated subspecialties and completion of a 1-year HPM fellowship.Results:
17 interviews were performed. Several themes emerged regarding the transformative value of HPM training to their medical and surgical practice (1) Learning to apply shared decision making and goal-concordant care to surgical decision making, and (2) Decreasing personal bias in medical decision making, and (3) Enabling wellness in surgeons. Two themes emerged regarding the perceived value to both the surgical community and the HPM community (1) Value of the HPM Fellowship Trained Surgeon to the Surgical Community, and (2) Value of the HPM Fellowship Trained Surgeon to the HPM Community. All study participants valued their HPM training and felt highly valued by the healthcare team.Conclusion:
HPM trained surgeons are highly valued on the healthcare team and improve patient-centered surgical care.Palavras-chave
