Annual Report Alert The annual report is required by the Children’s Hospital GME Support Reauthorization Act of 2006 (Public Law 109-307). The reauthorizing legislation extends authorization for the Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education Payment Program (CHGME PP) for five more years and requires that participating children’s hospitals provide information about their residency training programs in an annual report that will be an addendum to the hospitals’ annual application for CHGME PP funding. Annual data are required to be collected on the 1) types of training programs that the hospital provided for residents such as general pediatrics, internal medicine/pediatrics, and pediatric subspecialties including both certified medical and non-medical subspecialties; 2) the number of training positions for residents, the number of such positions recruited to fill, and the number of positions filled; 3) the types of training that the hospital provided for residents related to the health care needs of difference populations such as children who are underserved for reasons of family income or geographic location, including rural and urban areas; 4) changes in residency training including changes in curricula, training experiences, and types of training programs, and benefits that have resulted from such changes and changes for purposed of training residents in the measurement and improvement and the quality and safety of patient care; and 5) the numbers of residents (disaggregated by specialty and subspecialty) who completed training in the academic year and care for children within the borders of the service area of the hospital or within the borders of the State in which the hospital is located. The CHGME PP is fully aware of the additional time and effort associated with this new statutory requirement and has made every effort to minimize the additional burden placed on participating hospitals while complying with the requirement.
