ABSTRACT
Pediatric health inequities are pervasive and reflect the confluence of social and structural determinants of health including racism in all its forms. Current approaches in graduate medical education that prepare trainees to address health inequities and improve population health are inadequate. Competency based medical education (CBME) can advance equity-oriented efforts to improve patient outcomes, optimize the learning environment and encourage lifelong learning. We briefly describe the impact of racism and discrimination on the clinical learning environment. We then highlight how to apply the 5 core principles of CBME to equip learners across the continuum to address health inequities. We provide specific examples including 1) how CBME can inform teaching, assessment and professional development activities to promote equitable pediatric health outcomes via enturstable professional activities, 2) competency-focused instruction that address racism and inequities, 3) multimodal learning approaches to facilitate the acquisition of the desired competencies to address health inequities, 4) sequenced learning approaches across the continuum of practicing pediatricians, and 5) tools and resources for programmatic assessment of trainee and program performance in addressing pediatric health inequities.
