Impact of an education-centered medical home on quality at a student-volunteer free clinic.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates an association between a longitudinal ECMH clerkship and improved quality metrics at an SVFC. Even measures not targeted for intervention, such as colorectal cancer and hepatitis C, showed significant improvement in screening rates when compared with the standard clinical model.

Comparison of quality metrics in an education-centered medical home with local and national benchmarks
Med Educ Online. 2022 Dec;27(1):2073806. doi: 10.1080/10872981.2022.2073806.ABSTRACTThe Education-Centered Medical Home (ECMH) is a longitudinal clerkship where students provide care to patients at one clinic site for the entirety of medical school. Studies have demonstrated that ECMHs have higher completion rates of preventative measures than traditional student-run free clinics (SRFCs). However, data comparing ECMHs with licensed primary care provider clinics are limited. We performed a prospective chart review that examined vaccination and cancer screening rates of patients in an ECMH and those seen by primary care phys...

Cuba Has Made At Least 3 Major Medical Innovations That We Need
By most measures, the United States' business-friendly environment has proven to be fertile for medical innovation. Compared to other countries, America has filed the most patents in the life sciences, is conducting most of the world's clinical trials and has published the most biomedical research. That's what makes the medical prominence of Cuba all the more surprising to those who view a free market as an essential driver of scientific discovery. Cuba is very poor, and yet the country has some of the healthiest, most long-lived residents in the world -- as well as a medical invention or two that could run circl...

Abstract A59: Providing care for LGBTQ individuals with cancer: A call for education and training
Conclusions: Survey results indicate that oncology providers in specialties where LGBTQ patients may be disproportionately affected are accepting of LGBTQ individuals and acknowledge the existence of unique needs for this population, yet are largely unaware of specific health behaviors and risk factors of, and best practices regarding, this population. This study also highlights the potential need for improved LGBTQ-related content in health professional school curricula, as well as for continuing education and training for providers that addresses the care of LGBTQ patient populations.Citation Format: Christina Tamargo, J...
