NATIONAL PARTNERS

UNDERSTANDING OUR AUDIENCE GROWTH IN MULTI-CHANNEL CME FORMATS

UTILIZING INTELLIGENCE TO IMPROVE PATIENT CARE

It begins with understanding the educational needs of primary healthcare providers and specialists across the country—from learning gaps to therapeutic areas of interest to preference in learning formats.

• In 2012, clinicians spent an average of 28 CME hours in live events and 25 hours in online activities for a total of 53 CME hours annually-more CME credits than most states require. 1

• 94% of physicians turn to CME as the leading source to learn about new treatment options. 2

• 89% of physicians value industry-supported CME. 3

For almost 20 years, Pri-Med has been committed to helping clinicians integrate the latest in medical education with patient information so they can improve outcomes at the point of care in an increasingly complex healthcare environment.

• Usage of Pri-Med is high and it is seen as a valuable CME resource:

• In a recent survey, 1 out of every 3 respondents say Pri-Med is their most valuable CME provider. 1

• Attendees are satisfied with their educational experience at Pri-Med

• 85% of attendees stated that material presented in CME sessions is directly applicable to the clinical practice. 4

• 75% of attendees would recommend a Pri-Med Conference to a colleague. 1

In 2012 Pri-Med acquired Amazing Charts, a highly rated electronic health (EHR) records company, with the goal of providing clinicians and their patients with specifically aligned education delivered at the point of care. Since the acquisition, Pri-Med and Amazing Charts have been hard at work establishing a comprehensive clinical analytics platform, developing a clinical decision support system (CDSS), and launching clinical studies to deliver outcomes results to improve patient care.

Opportunity: Fewer than 10% of EHR system owners report accessing CME directly through their systems. 1

Pri-Med recognizes the need to provide multiple learning channels to accommodate different learning preferences. To meet these needs, Pri-Med is continually expanding both our live and online CME offerings.

The convenience of being able to access online CME resources via mobile devices, the cost-effectiveness of these online resources, and the nature of a clinician’s busy schedule have affected the impact of CME on their daily decision making.

• Online consumption is growing: Clinicians plan to increase participation in online CME activities by 40% in 2014. 1

• 80% of doctors say that the ability to view on-demand content at their convenience is the greatest benefit of virtual communication. 2

To meet the preference of clinicians, in 2014 Pri-Med is enhancing its portfolio of online CME products to provide innovative and timely formats for learning. In addition to Webcasts, Expert Perspectives, and Case Studies, PCPs and specialists can participate in these new forums:

Clinical Coffee Break:

• Quick-hitting activity designed to provide a expert annotated feedback on clinical challenges, new clinical data and practice guidelines, or overall peer-to-peer insights of a targeted clinical topic.

“Live” from Pri-Med Simulcast:

• A 60-minute live simulcast from one of Pri-Med’s events.

Virtual Expert Roundtable:

• Live webcast featuring 2 or 3 faculty members in a studio setting discussing a clinical topic.

Case Study Compendium:

• Patient case studies presented for a condition/therapeutic area. Designed to improve treatment decisions and patient outcomes, each case presents a different patient scenario, requiring learners to take a customized approach to diagnosis and treatment.
