Are there limits to the amount of “AMA PRA Category 1 Credit” that physicians can earn during a year for specific learning formats, such as Journal-based CME or Manuscript Review?
The AMA places no limits on the amount of credit a physician can earn in any format. However, if the physician chooses to apply for the Physician’s Recognition Award, then there are limits to some of the learning format categories that may be used for this purpose. These limits may be found on page 21 of the AMA PRA booklet.
