CADRE Logo
 
Great news--our Cases in Success program has recently been approved by the American Academy of Family Physicians for accreditation, so participants can now earn either 1.0 AMA PRA Category 1 credit or 1.0 Prescribed credit for each series completed.  More information about these case studies can be found in the section below.  
 
     
 
CASES in SUCCESS                                                                 CME Opportunity !
 
Web-based case studies offer learning that fits your busy schedule.  Three different therapeutic areas are available: 

Bullet Strategies for Reaching Multiple Metabolic Targets

Bullet Incretin Therapies

Bullet Insulin Therapy

 
Each therapeutic area is comprised of 3 case studies, requiring 15-20 minutes per case.  For each area, you will:
  • Complete a brief pre-assessment and the first case study.
  • Two weeks later, CADRE will prompt you to complete the second case in that area at a time convenient for you.
  • Two weeks following completion of the second case, CADRE will prompt you to complete the third case in that area, as well as a brief post-assessment and the series evaluation--again, when convenient for you. Credit for the therapeutic area will be earned once the post-assessment is complete.
  • Three months later, you will be asked to complete a follow-up assessment. Although this assessment is voluntary, its completion will help CADRE gauge the success of this novel program and plan future education activities.

Complete CME information is provided at the beginning of each series of cases; completion of all cases in a series is required to earn credit for the area.    

Comments from participants who have completed the series are very positive.  "These case studies have been excellent and one of the best ways of learning I have experienced."
