Free online video CME

Earn CME credit through the AMA's free online video series

 A maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits can be earned for watching the five webcasts and answering the programs' online evaluation questions. 

The AMA's online educational series, Educating Physicians on Controversies in Health, now offers five easily accessible programs to earn continuing medical education (CME) credit online. Each webcast presents strategies to address health care disparities in your medical practice and enhance your skills and knowledge on vital public health issues in medicine.

To earn CME credit, view the five webcasts and answer the self-assessment and program evaluation questions using the online form. Allow approximately one hour to review the materials and answer the questions.

A new online educational program from the AMA and included in the five webcasts, "Paying attention to preventing cardiovascular disease among racial and ethnic minorities," aims to better educate physicians on why racial and ethnic minority patients, particularly African American patients, are more at risk for heart disease and stroke and how the medical community can address this growing problem.
