The CME Coalition on November 8 submitted comments to the European Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (EACCME) regarding its revised criteria, otherwise known as EACCME 3.0. Among other items, the criteria places restrictions on promotional materials and satellite symposiums for CME. The submitted comments outline several of the Coalition's concerns regarding this criteria, as raised by members of the Coalition's working group to develop this letter, including the outlawing of satellite symposiums and the EACCME's lack of providing a public comment period on the revisions.
