Hi DD,
I've taken many CME courses over the years in places where I could do the diving I wanted to do, but also get the CME hours (and occasionally when I'm lucky) get the rare CME reimbursement from my employer. I never tried to get CME reimbursement for my Rescue course because I knew in advance from my employer that they wouldn't reimburse or credit me for any course work that wasn't at least AMA approved. Usually if it's AMA approved, it's also approved by some other of the associations like AAFP or ACEP.
BUT, the main reason I'm writing to you is to see if you're aware of any CME's in diving locales. I'm always interested in hearing from docs/PA's/NP's who've attended good dive/CME's.
I tried to start a thread some time ago specifically on this point, but no one responded. One of my favorite dive-doc groups was disbanded a few years ago when one of its owners died. This was also very sad for us from a personal standpoint because we really liked the couple who owned and ran that group, and thought of them as good friends. They ran first class programs on relevant primary care topics in some really primo places. Their programs were great fun and I miss the days that we travelled with them.
There are still a few companies out there I'm aware of who provide similar programs, but the conferences are few and far between. This fiscal year especially seems to have slim pickings.
So, that's a very roundabout way of responding back to your Rescue course inquiry, but I thought I'd post this back to you and see what the fates might bring.
Good luck.
Betsy
