NCME now offers 1 program a month as a TV program online.  The link is published on the library WEB site under “Continuing Education” , in “Physician’s Education” section.  Everyone must register online, and then will be notified about new programs via e-mail by NCME.  The participants use the post tests, which may be printed online or obtained from the library, send them to the address on the form to receive CME credits.  In the future (30-60 days), participants will be able to answer the questions online, and the certificate will be available for print out instantly. NCME still offers credits for previously released programs (not older than 3 years), but questions must be submitted on the new forms. Credits are free to physicians on staff at LMHS, but are also available to doctors, who are not on staff (retired physicians, for example).  They will have to send a check for $8.25 with each post-test to receive a certificate.
