Continuing Medical Education (CME) Opportunities
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and its National Center for Medical Home Implementation (NCMHI) will be hosting a free four part webinar series February through May 2013 on how to effectively deliver care using tools and resources supporting the medical home model. Building on the success of two previous medical home webinar series (2009 and 2011), the NCMHI will provide engaging educational “how to” presentations focused on several important facets of pediatric care delivery, including empowering youth, reducing health disparities, using data to improve quality, and employing best practices in family-centered care.

The AAP hosted a FREE four part CME series in early 2011 that provided child health professionals with practical strategies for implementing medical home in practice. These webinars were led by recognized experts with the goal of educating participants about the value of the family‐centered primary care medical home for all children and youth, especially in the daily delivery of preventive, acute, and chronic care. Faculty highlighted practical tools and resources, and provided strategies for improving quality of care and increasing patient/family partnership and satisfaction. CME Series Schedule
