Background: The perioperative surgical home (PSH) is a physician-led, interdisciplinary, and patient-centered model of perioperative care that focuses on patient outcomes and comprehensive care management. Many studies to date have looked at the clinical implementation of varied PSH models with promising results discussed. There are no studies directly examining concrete plans for the various Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) anesthesiology residency programs to implement augmented PSH training into curricula. The aim of this survey study was to better assess current residency training in PSH. Methods: An 18-question survey developed by a team of research personnel familiar with the PSH was sent to all ACGME accredited anesthesiology training programs in the United States. Responses were quantified, and construct and external validity of the survey tool examined. Results: 41% of the programs responded. 89% (95% CI 78-96%) of programs reported moderate or better understanding of the PSH. 34% (21-47%) had incorporated additional PSH training in the previous three years, and 32% (with no significant correlation to the previous group) had plans to integrate more training in the next 3 years. Conclusions: Overall, the surveyed program directors voiced understanding of the value of the PSH model in patient care but remained hesitant to incorporate training specific to PSH into the anesthesiology residency curricula.
