How do we know when it's time to apply for ACCME reaccreditation?
Whoever is listed in PARS as your organization's designated primary contact will receive notification from the ACCME. You'll need to complete a Confirmation of Intent form (also in PARS) that your organization 1) will pursue reaccreditation and 2) agrees to follow the ACCME's Accreditation Criteria, Standards for Integrity and Independence, and policies. You can read more about the reaccreditation process here.
What are the format requirements for MATE Act activities?
There are actually no format requirements or restrictions. The eight required hours can come through various formats (live, enduring, online, etc.) and can be completed at one time or through a combination of educational initiatives.
