CME activities with Joint Providers: This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint providership of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the New York City STD Prevention Training Center. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is accredited by the (ACCME®) to provide medical education for physicians.

CE is accredited and administered by CDC; this course is not accredited for AAPA credits, so if you do the CME for non-physician (select that you are not a physician), it’s a certificate of completion but not credits (certificate will state 0 credits). Specifically, ACCME only awards CE to Physicians, DO’s, and MBBS. PA’s who complete ACCME accredited courses and can only receive a certificate that displays hours of instruction completed of an ACCME accredited course but does not award CE to non-physicians. ACCME cannot award CME to PA’s and Nurse Practitioners. However, their boards accept AMA PRA Category 1 Credits for the amount that the course was worth which is why CDC provides a CME-Non-Physician certificate. The learner should be able to submit the certificate to their board and receive credit for the amount that the course is worth.
