Dear colleagues:
A few weeks ago I submitted a request to the list for any information regarding CME fee schedules to help my university upgrade our own schedule. I only received one response from the list, but did receive several requests to summarize what I found. In addition to the response I received from one kind individual, here is the information I was able to find:
We've had a hard time getting anyone to do the weekly CME lectures. They run about 45 minutes, and must be from a list of approved topics, based on a needs assessment/curriculum. We're now offering our local talent $500 per lecture, and will be getting a few speakers from out of town. We will cover their expenses and each honorarium will be considered on a case-by-case basis. We are a 300 bed hospital.
