ACEP met with the Coalition to Oppose Medical Merit Badges and joined with them to write a letter to the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services opposing its recent directive that requires advanced trauma life support and trauma-specific CME for trauma centers. The American College of Surgeons has backed away from these requirements in its latest “Orange Book,” but states may try to reintroduce these unnecessary requirements. If you have any questions about this or other state-specific issues, contact Harry Monroe ACEP’s director of state and chapter services, at hmonroe@acep.org.
