Michigan Medicine Quality Improvement MOC Program (ABMS IHHC, NCCPA PI-CME)

In January 2011 the ABMS Multi-specialty Portfolio Program approved University of Michigan Health (UMH) to have a “Portfolio Program” of QI projects with IHHC credit. UMH can designate Part IV credit for qualified QI projects overseen by UMH and award IHHC credit to physicians who meet participation requirements for those projects. Nationally, the UMH Program was the second to be approved.

In 2017 the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA) accepted the participation of physician assistants (PAs) in activities approved through the ABMS Portfolio Program as qualifying for credit in Performance Improvement CME (PI-CME) for PAs.
