Physician's Foundation Project Starting

A grant from the Physicians’ Foundation for Health Systems Excellence (PFHSE) has been awarded to Dr. John Wiecha to develop an innovative online approach for physicians’ continuing medical education for primary care physicians.

Continuing medical education, a requirement for all practicing physicians, can be a problem for those who have trouble leaving their practices for meetings and lectures, according to Wiecha. “The distance education approach tends to be more efficient,” he says. “So we developed some new ways to provide the continuing professional education using distance education methods, and it really engages [doctors] more in the material.” For more information about the grant, click here.
