The Ohio Academy of Family Physicians (OAFP) created Easy Performance Improvement (EasyPI), a peer-reviewed curated collection of online educational resources, to support family physicians in completing a self-guided PI project in practice and receive credit for the work they do.
Launching today is the newest track, EasyPI: Asthma!
Just like the other tracks available, the asthma track will guide you through the process of evaluating background information on asthma, determining how this information should drive patient care, and implementing team-based practice change to improve patient outcomes.
After implementing your asthma PI initiative, resources on the page provide step-by-step instructions on how to submit your work to the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) through its Self-Directed PI Project: Clinical Pathway application. Self-directed PI projects fulfill an ABFM PI requirement, add 20 ABFM points to your portfolio, and equate to 20 continuing medical education credits through the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP).
The EasyPI: Asthma track is sponsored by AstraZeneca, a proud Partner in Health of the OAFP.
Note: to ensure we’re providing a tool that is helpful and meets your PI needs, we’d love to hear from you. Before you access an EasyPI track, complete a pre-intervention survey. If you complete this before Wednesday, November 23, you can be entered into a drawing for one of two Amazon gift cards.
After you’ve used the tools on a track and submitted a PI project for credit, please let us know how it went by completing the post-intervention survey.
If you have questions about the EasyPI initiative, please contact Deputy Executive Vice President Kaitlin McGuffie or call 800.742.7327.
Financial support for the EasyPI initiative was provided by the AAFP Foundation to the Family Medicine Philanthropic Consortium (FMPC) and is funded by members like you! Help programs like this continue to support family medicine by giving to the AAFP Foundation. Select “Chapter Grants” when making your gift online.
