Case Study
Following is a sample CME activity that Medscape developed, certified and distributed in collaboration with a governmental institution, an academic medical center and a research organization.
Needs Assessment: Based on an Institute of Medicine (IOM) report that US healthcare providers commonly fail to attend to psychosocial health issues of cancer survivors and their families, the IOM and other government agencies have recommended changes to the way health professionals are trained on standards for delivering effective psychosocial and supportive care for cancer patients and survivors.1 To address the need for improved supportive care of the cancer patient, a government agency commissioned an academic medical center team to develop a comprehensive educational curriculum in palliative care, and distribute it on Medscape to the target provider audiences.
