How Are CME Hours Calculated?
CME is designated on an hour-for-hour basis, i.e., for every hour one spends in a CME activity, you receive one (1) hour of CME credit. Many CME conferences include scheduled breaks, business meetings, and other activities that do not qualify as CME. These hours are deducted from the total CME hours received by participants. Also, if one attends a conference, but needs to leave early to meet another obligation, this time should be deducted.
