Bill Summary
CONCERNING CONTINUING EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS FOR PHYSICIANS.
AI Summary
This bill requires physicians to complete 30 continuing medical education (CME) credit hours every 24 months as a condition of renewing, reinstating, or reactivating their medical license in Colorado. The bill defines what qualifies as an approved CME program and allows the medical board to audit physician compliance. Failure to comply without reasonable cause would be considered unprofessional conduct and result in an inactive license until the requirement is met. The bill also allows the medical board to require specific CME topics, such as health disparities, reproductive health, and bias.
