Pivio Goals

Goals The Pivio system is designed to provide medical

students and physicians with a platform to track and document their competency across the span of medical school education, training and professional practice.

System will enable storage and/or transfer of data created throughout an academic and professional career.

It will enable users to share data with credential verification organizations and others at the individual’s control.

Goals – Longer Term Motivate physicians towards continuous

improvement by:◦ Increasing awareness of performance against

goals◦ Assist in managing learning plans for growth as a

physician◦ Making profiling their own practice easier,

including benchmarking against available standards, to identify needs for continued learning and improvement

◦ Matching identified needs to available resources for performance improvement

Goals – Longer Term Make credentialing easier and more

streamlined Allow physicians to release customized

practice profiles for their patients Faster access to verified data in support of

self-reported data

What’s New?

eFolio Connector is now

What’s in a Name? Pivio is a combination of the word pivot and an

abstraction of the Latin word “via” meaning ‘way’, or ‘path’.

The name conveys versatility and a guide in the life-long progression of users as they journey through their academic and professional careers.

The tagline (Manage your records. Master your career.) is a functional description of the product and illustrates how it can assist users with being in control of their information and growth.

Pivio

The Pivio system will connect with several organizations and services relevant to medical students, residents and physicians.

Data ManagementStart Profile

• Import information from AAMC & NBME sources such as AMCAS, MCAT, etc. & eventually your previous electronic portfolio & information from previous institutions of higher education

Link to Official Info

• Use Data Commons to link to official records such as transcripts, test scores, evaluations.

Send info everywhere

• Export your CV/resume

• Export info to credential verification

• Export info to social networking

An app that compiles data reports for the learner and/or other authorized viewers

A hub connecting data repositories that can provide information to the Pivio system

Pivio with Data Commons

Pivio and Credentialing

CVO takes further steps necessary for credentialing

Verifies other information Communicates with hospital(s), etc.

User asks Pivio to send information to a CVO for the purpose of credentialing

Unofficial resume information Official documents from Data Commons

User keeps “achievement” and “identity” information in the Pivio system

Reports of Scores Resume style information

Case Logs In pilot/launch users will be able to import

information from ACGME case logs

On April 1st, AAMC/NBME hosted a Clinical Thought Leaders discussion on case logs

Should we be considering development of a standard for case logs?

Role of Standards

MedBiquitous Standards Accelerated a competency standard to enable easy

management of competency information across specialties ◦ A standards research report is now available◦ Development of the XML specification and web

service to advance lifelong learning and continuous improvement is underway

Continuing work with MedBiquitous to assess the ability to include the Educational Trajectory, Professional Profile, and other standards

PESC Standards Update Working with PESC to create a more widely used

electronic portfolio standard and include support for this standard in future versions of the Pivio system

Centered around data flow across institutions by creating similarities across data fields

Development of these standards will allow Pivio to connect with other systems/tools to pre-populate certain data more efficiently

A draft standard should be presented in May at the PESC Data Summit

Future Plans

Future Plans Competency tracking Reflection and learning plan templates Benchmarking/Comparative tools Learning pathways and education/program

tools Integration with other AAMC/NBME programs Development of additional features for

physicians and allied health professionals

What else should be on our radar?

Get Involved

Focus Groups Medical students, residents, faculty and program

staff have participated
