California Assembly Bill 1195 requires continuing medical education
activities with patient care components to include curriculum in the subjects
of cultural and linguistic competency. It is the intent of the bill, which
went into effect on July 1, 2006, to encourage physicians and surgeons,
CME providers in the state of California, and the Accreditation Council
for Continuing Medical Education to meet the cultural and linguistic
concerns of a diverse patient population through appropriate professional
development. The planners, speakers and authors of this CME activity have
been encouraged to address issues relevant in their topic area. In addition,
a variety of resources are available that address cultural and linguistic
competency, some of which are included in your syllabus or handout
materials. Additional resources and information about AB1195 can be found
on our website at http://cme.ucsd.edu.
