Dynamics of the marketplace: key issues, new linkages, and successful organizational models in academic CME
Kristofco RE
A b s t r a c t
Following an initial description of the marketplace for CME, the article identifies and explores six key issues for the future of academic CME: evolution of the academic health center; practice changes and reimbursement; impact of technology; regulatory influences; proliferation of CME providers; and medical school leadership. The author then turns to a discussion of new ways to link CME with practitioners--through academic health centers, within various practice environments, through technology, in the regulatory arena, and by developing relationships with competing groups and organizations. Finally, the article suggests several organizational models with potential for expanding these linkages.
