Can a physician obtain “AMA PRA Category 1 Credit” for reading articles published in a professional journal?
Some articles in peer-reviewed journals have been planned as learning activities by accredited CME providers and are called Journal-based CME. These articles, which include a mechanism for physician reflection and/or interaction, can be designated for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ by the accredited provider and physicians can claim this credit through submission of the required documentation to the provider. Physicians may not claim AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ for reading articles that are not designated for credit by an accredited CME provider.
