Credit Designation Statement

The University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine designates this PI CME activity for a maximum of 20 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

CME and MOC IV Credit

To qualify for both PI CME credit (AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™) and QI MOC through the ABMS Multi-specialty Portfolio Program, participants must be engaged in a systematic effort of reviewing and improving some aspect(s) of care or care delivery for their patients. 

Sustained QI cycles.  The QI effort must be sustained, involving at least two or more linked cycles of performance review and improvement effort. The post-intervention data and review from one cycle become the baseline data and planning for the next cycle. Starting with a suspected or actual problem with care:
1st QI cycle
    Baseline data collection, analysis/review, identify underlying cause(s)
    Intervention(s) to address underlying cause(s)
    Post-intervention data collection, analysis/review, identify remaining underlying cause(s)

2nd QI cycle
   Post-intervention data collection, analysis/review, identify underlying cause(s) (same as above)
   Adjustment(s) / second intervention(s) to address underlying cause(s) 
   Post-adjustment data collection, analysis/review, identify remaining underlying cause(s)

Individuals attest to their participation on the QI/PI project. UCM QI/PI MOC Program emails to each participant a unique Access Code used to UNLOCK this module. Once enrolled, particpants will complete an attestation of participating as required, and reflections on the QI effort and its impact.  Individuals submit the form online.  UMHS QI/PI MOC Program staff forward the information to the project lead. The project lead verifies that individuals participated. UCM reports participation to relevant board(s). The credit for participating in a MOC activity is recorded for the year in which the individual completed activities in the documented QI/PI project.  

Attestation forms must be submitted by November 30th in order for us to report credit to your ABMS specialty board and have your credit count for that year.
