The critical care medicine (CCM) fellowship is an opportunity for advanced anesthesiology trainees to refine their quality improvement (QI) skills. However, the short training period and inconsistent curricula make this challenging. The QI fellow (QIF) is described as an education program to provide consistent QI training during the CCM fellowship. The QIF is a mentored position to help manage data review, QI conferences, and improvement efforts within the CCM Division. The curriculum is focused on a QI education framework and mentored experiential learning. The QIF program is an opportunity for education and mentorship in the role of a CCM operational leader.

Introduction: Medical physicists play a critical role in ensuring image quality and patient safety, but their routine evaluations are limited in scope and frequency compared to the breadth of clinical imaging practices. An electronic radiologist feedback system can augment medical physics oversight for quality improvement. This work presents a novel quality feedback system integrated into the Epic electronic medical record (EMR) at a university hospital system, designed to facilitate feedback from radiologists to medical physicists and technologist leaders.
