ACME Webinar on New ACCME Accreditation Criteria

Just finished listening to this ACME webinar; Murray Kopelow, MD, did a really nice job in going over the new criteria. My personal opinion is that these new accreditation criteria are simply more explicit "guidance" in moving CME to where it should have always been. That said, the criteria are in effect beginning with November 2008 ACCME decisions, and CME providers need to start making changes now if they will be seeking Level III accreditation. For some CME providers, this will be a sea change. Bottom Line: ACCME has certainly thrown down the gauntlet and I, for one, am very pleased about the new criteria.
