Continuing medical education

What about all those other drugs? That is the problem.

One of the other things is that a lot of the CME, or continuing medical education, is actually pharma-sponsored, whether it's directly or indirectly.

And all of these lectures involve telling you what to prescribe.

And in fact, there is almost nobody who will tell you what you're not supposed to prescribe.

I didn't take the time to read.

I did my continuing medical education, but that CME was the exact same medical school directives.

I never left the box until after the seven books.

And then I wanted to cry.

And healthcare professionals can also earn continuing medical education credit, right?

For the non-sponsored content.

So we do have CME accredited video game content where doctors can earn CME credit toward renewing their medical license from literally playing video games.

That sounds great to me.

Awesome.
