One of the ACGME's six core competencies, systems-based practice (SBP), is difficult to interpret and developing proficiency over a one-year fellowship poses a challenge. Given the implications that successful SBP can have on pain medicine, it is especially important for fellows to focus on this competency during their training. Here, we propose a way to implement effective SBP into a pain medicine fellowship and the impact it may have within the larger health care system.
