Resident frequently asked questions
For procedures: login to residency partner, go to “cases”, click on “new”, put in correct date,
institution and supervisor; the default will be “Emergency Medicine” and “ACGME”. Under ACGME procedures you will find the main procedures you should be logging. If the procedure is not listed under ACGME, then look under ER. Please use the ACGME link preferentially and just write in under comments any specifics. (ie, “central venous access” is an ACGME procedure, then you can type in “femoral” or “subclavian” under comments). You can input more than one procedure per patient, but when you are finished inputting each procedure
MAKE SURE you click “Add CPT to Experience” and then click “Save” when you are finished with that patient.
