Evaluation of clinical competence in medical oncology training programs. [Journal Article]
J Clin Oncol 1988 Sep; 6(9):1516-9.
The American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) has asked that directors of medical oncology training programs establish systems to evaluate, document, and substantiate the clinical competence of subspecialty trainees who seek certification. The Board defines the certificable medical oncologist at the completion of training as being competent to provide comprehensive and specialized medical care based on a high standard of demonstrated component skills. These skills clearly exceed those demonstrated by the certified internist. The goal of this expanded evaluation program is to ensure that the public and the profession can identify, through certification, physicians capable of providing a high standard of medical care.
