            As of December 15, 2021, physicians and PAs who complete CME courses in cultural competence or implicit bias may count these hours of training towards their state-mandated continuing medical education requirement. <br />
<br />
Physicians must report 60 hours of Category 1 CME every three years, while PAs must report 50 hours every two years. <br />
<br />
Amending CME rules to specify that training on the topics of cultural competence or implicit bias is “practice relevant” is a way to encourage licensees to learn more about how to meet the needs of patients from diverse backgrounds.<br />
 <br />
To learn more about cultural competence or to find free and low-cost CME opportunities, visit NCMB’s new resource page at <a href="www.ncmedboard.org/diversity">www.ncmedboard.org/diversity</a>. <br />
