Applicants who 1.) Have not been engaged in clinical medical practice for 5
years or 2.)Graduated from medical school 5 or more years ago, will be
required to document 150 hours of category 1 CME credits, earned within the
last 2 years prior to the application date, in order to be eligible for
temporary licensing in the state of Illinois. (Temporary licensure is a
requirement for all entering house staff in Illinois, who are not
immediately eligible for a permanent license).
Anyone can explain what does category 1 CME means/includes? Does medical
research counts?
Thanks!

Dok may give you more practical advises.
From AMA:
AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ activities fall into two broad areas: activities designated by an accredited CME provider and direct credit awarded by the AMA.
Provider designated activities are those for which an accredited CME provider awards AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ to the physician learners. CME activities designated by accredited CME providers include the following:
* Live activities - CME activities that physicians must attend (in person or virtually) such as national conferences, live Internet teleconferences, local workshops, seminars, grand rounds, journal clubs or departmental scientific meetings. Accre
CME providers may also choose to award AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ to faculty of live activities that are designated for such credit. If the providers choose not to offer faculty credit physicians may claim this credit directly from the AMA.
* Enduring materials – CME activities such as printed, recorded, audio, video and/or online/electronic activities planned as educational activities.
* Journal-based CME - CME activities within a peer-reviewed, professional journal designated for credit (an accredited provider will designate the activity for credit, e.g. JAMA).
* Test item writing – CME activities that include researching, drafting and defending potential questions for examinations given by the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) or a member board of the American Board of Medical Specialties (AB
or for peer reviewed, published, self-assessment educational activities from a national medical specialty society. This must be a robust process which includes a group peer review.
* Manuscript review (for journals) – CME activity in which journal manuscripts are critically reviewed under the direction of an editor working with an accredited CME provider. The review must be of an original contribution for publication in a
al journal indexed by MEDLINE.
* Performance improvement – CME activities through an accredited CME provider involving structured, long-term processes by which a physician or group of physicians can learn about specific performance measures, retrospectively assess their pract
apply these measures prospectively over a useful interval, and re-evaluate their performance.
* Internet point of care learning - CME activity developed by an accredited CME provider that includes structured, self-directed, online learning by physicians on topics relevant to their clinical practice. Learning for this activity is driven by
flective process in which physicians must document their clinical question, the sources consulted and the application to practice.
* Other activities – other structured activities may be designated for credit, i.e. committee learning, learning plans/contracts.

It is still hard to understand what it means. For short, are basic research
publicaitons or medical research experiences counted as CME Cat1?
* Journal-based CME - CME activities within a peer-reviewed, professional journal designated for credit (an accredited provider will designate the activity for credit, e.g. JAMA). What does this mean?
Anyway, thanks Eric, you are super providing the info.

- Research seems not count. Dok can give you a definite answer.

- Such as journal article review/proof work?

Eric, thanks for the clarification!
for IL, there is requirement that medical license should be acquired within
7 years of graduation from medical school.
Is this true?

ericusa (eric) 于 (Mon Sep 7 11:59:16 2009, 美东) 提到:
I think this is not true. The requirement is: "Must complete USMLE Steps 1,
2, and 3 within seven (7) years of passing the first step".
within 7 years of graduation from medical school.

请问Eric,这是Dok写的：
另外，你若没有以往在美国临床经验，IL要求150点CME。你可以用开会和大量做题
得到CME。另外，若毕业5年以上，也会被严格审查对待，你必须有良好的与临床有
关的科研、进修等背景。否则，不是说不能得到，而是会被比较PICKY对待。要有准
备。你若做科研是与临床有关、有GRANT、有过文章尤其高级别杂志发表、有过某项
学术奖励、专利权、某些专业学会会员证明、著名专业人员的推荐和说明信件等等
都会极大有利于你申请的通过审批。
这是不是说，如果毕业以后和临床没有关系，比较难拿到License？
前几天，看到一个Post说有人收到IL Program的据信，里面提到原因是毕业五年以上很
难拿到License。
谢谢Eric！

Sorry I thought we talk about CME requirement.
Some CMGs (Dok, Acne, etc.) got positions in Illinois (with temporary
license) and they can give you more information on this. The programs are
more picky there for older graduates. If they give you an interview invites
most likely you can pass the requirement.

Thank you, Eric! I will probably apply for a few IL programs. If I am
lucky to have a interview there, I will ask the PD about this question.
