Welcome to Vivacity Consulting, LLC

CME Consulting | ACCME Accreditation | Maintenance of Certification (MOC) | Conflict of Interest (COI) Management

Vivacity Consulting’s Goal: obtain or maintain ACCME or IMQ accreditation, simplify the CME paperwork, improve the quality and impact of the medical education offered, and connect your activities to the overall organizational goals.

Vivacity Consulting provides medical education expertise to specialty societies, hospitals, university health science centers, medical education companies, and others. We offer you highly acclaimed assistance for all aspects of continuing medical education design, implementation and evaluation, as well as assistance with the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) and/or IMQ/CMA accreditation process.

Available services include:

Accreditation and Re-Accreditation

  • Initial application for ACCME or IMQ/CMA Accreditation
  • Reaccreditation Application for ACCME or IMQ/CMA
  • ACCME Progress Reports or IMQ Interim Reports
  • CME Personnel Training – Staff and Faculty Training Available
  • Files and Documentation Review
  • CME or Executive Committee Facilitation

If you have an ACCME or IMQ reaccreditation, Progress Report or initial application, we can offload some or all of the work from your desk. We function as partners with your organization to ascertain compliance and identify opportunities for improvement.

Leadership Development

  • Training and development of key stakeholders (i.e. grooming the next CME Chair)
  • Coaching future leaders and staff to maximize their potential for the organization
  • Working with leadership to ensure the organization’s goals are met
  • Developing strategic relationships with other organizations

If your program has experienced a decline in registrations and/or enthusiasm for your offerings, we can work with the CME leadership to evaluate your overall program and develop a strategic plan moving forward. We help CME programs use data to set goals and measure their impact.

Planning

  • Pre-planning with leaders/committee members
  • Policy setting
  • Needs Assessment and gap analysis
  • Measurable learning objectives
  • Conflict of Interest management
  • Documentation for the ACCME and/or IMQ/CMA

If planner and faculty conflict of interest (COI) management seems overwhelming, we can develop a process tailored for your organization.

Implementation

  • Project plans and time-lines
  • Benchmarking as projects continue
  • Documentation for the ACCME and/or IMQ/CMA

Increase the value of your CME by certifying it for ABIM or ABP Maintenance of Certification (MOC) credits. We can help you determine the best way to do so. Vivacity Consulting can also provide an online learning platform for a very low cost to our clients (click here to view a 15 minute sample course.)
