CME that Counts for Maintenance of

Certification


August 5, 2016


“By collaborating with ACCME, ABIM will open the door to even more options for physicians engaged in MOC and will allow them to get MOC credit for high-quality CME activities they are already doing.”

- Richard J. Baron MDPresident and CEO, ABIM

“This collaboration will generate many more opportunities for accredited CME providers to

serve as a strategic resource by delivering relevant, effective, independent, practice-based education that counts for MOC.”

- Graham McMahon MD MMScPresident and CEO, ACCME

“This collaboration is designed to create a central

repository that will help our diplomates easily locate courses that are most relevant to their practice needs.”

- James P. Rathmell MDSecretary, ABA

“This agreement will allow pediatricians to automatically get lifelong learning and self-assessment

credit for qualifying CME activities. It is one of several changes the ABP is making to simplify the MOC process and remove barriers to getting credit for projects and learning activities that pediatricians already are doing.”

- Virginia A. Moyer MDVice President, MOC and Quality, ABP

Am Board of Anesthesiology

ABA’s Approach to MOC• MOCA 2.0 – diplomates identifying gaps• Opportunities for Accredited CME to close those gaps

Requirements• No additional requirements for CME (all Category 1 accepted)• Patient Safety (separate requirements)• Identify the appropriate Practice Area of learners• Match the content of the CME to the ABA Content Outline

Timeline• Beta testing in September; development of education for providers• Open in PARS in late October for activity registration and learner

completion data reporting

Am Board of Pediatrics

Kristi GilreathDirector, MOC External Activities


August 5, 2016


Am Board of Pediatrics

ABP’s Approach to MOC• Diplomates need opportunities for learning and self assessment• Accredited CME providers can meet that need

Requirements• Additional requirements closely aligned to ABIM• Identify the appropriate Specialty of learners• Attest to meeting requirements, reporting data, and possibly being

audited

Timeline• Beta testing in early August; development of education for providers• Open in PARS in late October for activity registration• Learner completion data not reported after late January 2017

AQI Program Guidelines

Activities should:1. address quality or safety gap supported needs assessment OR

support completion of needs assessment2. address care, care processes, or systems of care in one or more

of the National Academy of Medicine’s quality dimensions or one or more of the three Aims or six Priorities articulated in the National Quality Strategy

3. have specific, measurable aim(s) for improvement4. use measures appropriate to the aim(s) for improvement5. include interventions intended to result in improvement;6. include appropriate data collection and analysis of

performance data to assess the impact of the interventions23

Timeline for PracticeAssessment Expansion

• April 2016 – August 2016: Engagement with provider community to help inform implementation

• August 2016: Engagement with providers at CME as a Bridge to Quality Workshop

• Early 2017: Implementation to recognize CME activities for Practice Assessment MOC points


August 5, 2016


1. How is your CME program evolving to help physicians participate in performance and quality improvement?

2. Describe some of your existing performance or quality improvement projects/activities that you think would meet the AQI guidelines.

3. How are you collaborating with QI, patient safety, and/or system leadership?

4. Are there any elements of the AQI guidelines that might be a barrier to having any of your existing or planned projects recognized within the program?

Think, Pair, Share…
