Candidates for the CUC Pilot must demonstrate their involvement in continuing medical education by documenting 90 CME credits (30 urology focused Category 1 credits and 60 Category 1 or 2 credits) within the three-year period between March 31, 2018 and April 1, 2021. For those participating in the 2021 CUC Pilot, the CME requirement is reduced to 70 total CME credits and 10 of those must be Category 1 Credits. Documentation of the requisite CME hours must be sent to the American Board of Urology office by April 1, 2021.
The Utah Department of Commerce Division of Occupational and Professional Licensure (DOPL) requires 40 CME hours every 2 years, of which a minimum of 34 must Category 1 credits, and a maximum of 6 may come from DOPL. For those with a controlled substance license, 4 CME hours are required, of which 3.5 must be on the topic of substance prescribing and .5 must come from the online DOPL tutorial.
Continuing Education requirements change often. We monitor the boards regularly to stay current, but if any information appears out of date, contact us and let us know.
