Editor's note: In the May MSB, we discussed how one hospital is measuring physicians' ability to meet the ACGME/Joint Commission's medical knowledge competency. This month, we explore how another hospital is measuring practice-based learning and improvement.

1. Patient care
2. Medical knowledge
3. Practice-based learning and improvement
4. Interpersonal communication skills
5. Professionalism
6. Systems-based practice
