CME Guidance

Effective October 17, 2019, Ohio’s continuing medical education (CME) requirements for physicians  changed. The following information is offered to assist licensees in preparing to meet the new requirements.

• Physicians with renewal dates of April 1, 2020 and beyond are expected to complete 50 hours of Category 1 CME.
  
  
• Category 2 CME is not being “eliminated.” However, completion of Category 2 CME will not count towards meeting the CME requirements for renewal.

Physicians - https://med.ohio.gov/Renew/Physician/Physician-MD-DO-DPM 

• Ohio MDs, DOs, and DPMs will need to complete a total of 50 hours Category 1 CME every two years to be eligible for license renewal. Previously, physicians were required to complete a total of 100 hours, of which 40 needed to be Category 1.

• The amount of continuing education hours a physician may earn providing health care services as a volunteer will be reduced to three hours.
