Can our presenter briefly share updates on advances her team is making at a health clinic? The clinic is an eligible company.
If your presenter shares updates on advances her team is making at a health clinic, there is no apparent risk for commercial bias or marketing in the content. However, it is also important to screen for perceived bias, or learner perception that the content is presented through a lens that reflects the presenter's own experience, beliefs, or expectations. Make sure your presenter provides updates as relevant to the content and sticks to sharing evidence-based facts over personal anecdotes.
We are having issues with learner evaluation completion. Will ACCME penalize us if our learner outcomes data is negligible?
ACCME requires providers to evaluate their activities for proposed changes to learner competence, performance and/or patient outcomes. If you are making a consistent effort to source this data, ACCME will not penalize you for learner behavior (i.e. not completing evaluations). However, if you are consistently struggling to gather data on your activity outcomes, consider updating your evaluation design, or even testing other methods of sourcing post-activity changes.
