The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education (CME) for physicians. The UT Health Science Center San Antonio designates participation in this live activity up to a maximum of 1.25 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.  The Texas State Board of Psychologists recognizes each session for Category I Continuing Education credit. Attendees should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

To obtain CME credit for Grand Rounds, you must use UTHSCSA’s text-based attendance recording service.  This requires one-time registration of the mobile phone you will use to report your attendance.  Text your email address to 844-502-1338 to register with the system.   On the day of each presentation you will send, via text to 844-502-1338, a message consisting of the word “attend” followed by the activity code number that will be announced and shown at the event.  For instance, if the activity code is 12343485, you will text “attend 12343485” from your registered phone.  For further assistance, please see these detailed instructions (pdf) or contact the Office of Continuing Medical Education at CME@uthscsa.edu.
