Why Do I Need To Do This?

UpToDate offers Internet Point of Care CME. Physicians conducting structured searches on clinical topics may claim a half (0.5) AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™/CFPC MainPro®-M1 credit for documented completion (either at the point of care or later) of the three-step learning cycle, which is as follows:

  1. Review the original clinical question.
  2. Identify the relevant sources from those consulted.
  3. Describe the application of findings to practice.
  • Your activity will post immediately so that you can complete the three-step cycle at any time during your use of the program.
  • You must submit credits within two years of the month of use (for example, credits accrued in July 2010 must be redeemed before July 31, 2012).
  • You may submit credits as long as your subscription is active. Once your subscription expires, you will have up to four months to redeem any available credits.
  • For more information, see our CME/CE/CPD FAQS.
