Note:
Due to changes in the criteria in awarding Continuing Education Units (CEUs), CMS is unable to award CEUs for a conference training call. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We will try to offer CEUs for future 2008 Physician Quality Reporting Initiative Calls. We are thankful for your feedback which is being used as the initial needs assessment data to determine what part of the eligible professional population is interested in obtaining CEUs.
