What CME activity records am I required to keep? (And for how long?)
ACCME-accredited providers are required to have mechanisms in place to record and verify physician participation for six years after the date of the CME activity. Sign-in sheets are an option, but not required. As for activity documentation other than physician participation, providers are required to retain activity files/records of the CME activity planning and presentation during the last accreditation term or for the last twelve months, whichever is longer.
Are we required to use the joint accreditation logo on our meeting materials?
If you are a jointly accredited provider, then yes - the new Joint Accreditation mark (along with the Joint Accreditation statement) must be used to inform learners. The statement and mark may be included on educational materials, certificates, promotional materials, announcements, etc.
