According to the ACCME the goals of updating “The ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education (renamed in the proposal from the Standards Commercial Support: Standards to Ensure Independence in CME Activities℠) are designed to create a clear, unbridgeable separation between accredited education and industry marketing and to ensure that accredited continuing Education serves the needs of patients and the public.”
