Today's Medicine CPC is now available on the Department of Medicine YouTube channel. You will also be able to view our channel free of ads.
⁠
We are happy to share that we are extending the opportunity to earn CME credit for individuals who are unable to attend Medicine CPC. We will now offer that CPC presentations will be viewable via our Department of Medicine YouTube Channel up to 3 days following the presentation. ⁠
⁠
Viewers will be able to watch Medicine CPC recordings until Tuesday (September 30th) at 11:59 pm. Viewers will be able to scan the QR code at the end of the video to earn CME credits. While we would hope to see everyone attend these events in person, we realize that often that is not possible and hope this new opportunity to watch and earn credit will be a valuable solution.⁠
