Med-IQ: Inspiring Medical Education

New Interactive Web Site Educates Healthcare Professionals

BALTIMORE, Md.—August 5, 2008—Med-IQ, America's most respected accredited continuing medical education (CME) company, today announced the launch of its new comprehensive, user-friendly Web site, www.Med-IQ.com

Physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and other healthcare professionals have access to the company's accredited continuing education in an enhanced, user-friendly format. Content for each activity is developed in full compliance with ACCME, OIG, and PhRMA guidelines and is fair-balanced, independent, and free of commercial bias.

Med-IQ's experienced team of medical education experts—including physicians, pharmacists, and professionals in compliance—design programs to improve healthcare professionals' medical knowledge, everyday performance, and, ultimately, the health of their patients.

“Med-IQ.com includes the functionality and forward-thinking education that busy healthcare professionals can use to maintain their certification, and stay current with emerging therapies and evidence-based guidelines,” said Scott E. Weber, co-CEO.

Through www.Med-IQ.com healthcare professionals have access to more than 50 accredited activities in 21 therapeutic areas, can earn complimentary CME/CE credits, print certificates on demand, and review a transcript of their learning history. Healthcare professionals are also able to self-direct their learning experiences to achieve goals related to everyday practice.

“This Web site delivers the education experiences that providers are looking for to help improve their patient outcomes,” said Gerry Hartung, co-CEO. Med-IQ's case-based learning approach reflects everyday clinical situations, triggering what healthcare professionals may already know and building on it for continuous improvement in competency, performance, and patient care.

Recent participant surveys indicate that physicians and other healthcare professionals find Med-IQ's programs extremely interactive, and relevant to their most immediate clinical learning needs. Participants engage in case-based discussions, polling questions, and role-playing—proven methods that help them retain the most information and apply it to practice. Needs assessment surveys also indicate that healthcare professionals prefer multiple ways to access accredited continuing medical education. Med-IQ excels in providing a blended learning strategy that includes:

  • Interactive Webcasts
  • Live meetings
  • Interactive audioconferences
  • Publications
  • Hospital satellite broadcasts
