How to Modernize Residency Evaluations Without Increasing Faculty Burden

Programs don’t have an evaluation-intent problem — they have a workflow-friction problem.

1) Reduce time to response

Use micro-interactions that can be completed in seconds after clinical contact.

2) Build progressive depth

Start with simple prompts and deepen only after repeated interactions.

3) Automate formal assessment triggers

When enough data is collected, trigger the formal evaluation automatically.

Result: better data quality, less coordinator chase, better learner feedback.
