Institutional Policies
CME Retroactive Credit Policies
Clarifies continuing education credit granting policies for educational activities accredited through the UCSF Office of Continuing Medical Education (CME).
Continuous Quality Review Policy
A policy to support accreditation elements that the medical education program monitors to continuously improve the quality of its medical education programs.
UC’s academic health centers and health professional schools have affiliations with other health care organizations to improve quality and access for the people of the state of California, particularly those in medically underserved communities, and to support UC’s research and public service mission.
Some of these organizations restrict certain evidence-based health care services. We affiliate with health systems that may restrict care only after we consider the implications for our patients, providers, and the diverse educational experiences for our students, residents and other trainees.
UC and UCSF expect that UC employees and trainees will deliver evidence-based health care services and, in those locations where a required service cannot be delivered, appropriate referrals or transfers must be made. If at any time a UC employee or trainee is asked to do otherwise, or a patient has a complaint, the University should be immediately informed as described in this August 18, 2023 announcement.
