Purpose Novel approaches are required to meet assessment demands and cultivate authentic feedback in competency-based medical education. One potential source of data to help meet these demands is the electronic health record (EHR). However, the literature offers limited guidance regarding how EHR data could be used to support workplace teaching and learning. Furthermore, given its sheer volume and availability, there exists a risk of exploiting the educational potential of EHR data. This qualitative study examined how EHR data might be effectively integrated and used to support meaningful assessments of residents' clinical performance. Method Following constructivist grounded theory, using both purposive and theoretical sampling, in 2016-2017 the authors conducted individual interviews with 11 clinical teaching faculty and 10 senior residents across 12 postgraduate specialties within the Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry at Western University. Constant comparative inductive analysis was conducted. Results Analysis identified key issues related to affordances and challenges of using EHRs to assess resident performance. These include the nature of EHR data; the potential of using EHR data for assessment; and the dangers of using EHR data for assessment. Findings offer considerations for using EHR data to assess resident performance in appropriate and meaningful ways. Conclusions EHR data have potential to support formative assessment practices and guide feedback discussions with residents, but evaluators must take context into account. The EHR was not designed with the purpose of assessing resident performance; therefore, adoption and use of these data for educational purposes require careful thought, consideration, and care.
