Abstract/OtherAbstract:
BACKGROUND: As funding sources diminish, it is critical for faculty members in primary care residency programs to better utilize available resources. The curriculum presented here, a practice management course for academicians, can provide fellows and new faculty with some of the budgeting and financial management skills necessary to perform in an academic environment. METHODS: The curriculum described is a 6-hour seminar series that relates essential budgeting and financial management concepts with academic practice. RESULTS: Pre- and postassessments displayed a statistically significant increase in the learner's fund of knowledge. One year after instruction, six of seven participants had used an aspect of the curriculum. All seven recommended its continuation. CONCLUSION: This curriculum should be considered for implementation in all fellowship programs that train future faculty.
