How many CME credits do they earn through the CD?
The CD is 27 minutes long, so they can earn 1 credit hour. It is important to understand, however, that physicians can earn a lot of CME credits at conferences they attend, so the one credit hour may not be as important to them. It is important, however, to let them know that the CD is accredited for CMEs. That lets the physicians know that the information contained on the CD is good clinical information and passed through the stringent application process for CME credit. That adds validity to the CD. So the physician may watch the CD, but may not go through the process of filling in the paperwork to get the CME credit.
