Physician's Institute for Excellence in Medicine

Improving medical practice for physicians and their patients

Multi-State Collaborative PI-CME Grants for Improvement in the Diagnosis and Management of COPD - Supported by Pfizer, Inc. and GlaxoSmithKline

Phase: Past Projects

The Physicians' Institute provided managed PI-CME grant opportunities to CME-accredited providers in coordination with selected State Medical Societies to offer outcomes-based PI-CME activities. To support the projects, the Physicians' Institute supplied advisory services and outcomes evaluation training and services to six grant funded projects.  Each grantee designed their own three-stage PI-CME initiative that included CME activities and provided their own CME credit.
 
Six organizations completed projects.  See attached Abstracts for each project.

• Georgia Academy of Family Physicians  
• The Southeast Permanente Medical Group, Georgia 
• Kentucky Heart Foundation in Kentucky
• Northern Indiana Education Foundation
