Wolters Kluwer UpToDate Expert AI now awards Continuing Medical Education (CME) Credits

Clinicians earn CME credits when asking questions in the AI workflow

Wolters Kluwer Health announced today that clinicians using UpToDate Expert AI can now earn Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit directly within their clinical workflow. When users ask clinical questions or engage in dialogue with UpToDate Expert AI, eligible activity can be captured for CME, enabling clinicians to earn and track credit as part of routine point-of-care decision-making.

By integrating CME credit into the AI experience, Wolters Kluwer aims to reduce the administrative burden of professional development as well as support continuous learning in real-world clinical settings. Clinicians can engage with emerging evidence and evolving standards of care while using both UpToDate and UpToDate Expert AI as trusted clinical resources. UpToDate Expert AI delivers generative AI responses grounded exclusively in the evidence-based, physician-authored content of UpToDate.

CME credit earned through UpToDate Expert AI can be shared electronically, with a clinician’s permission, to support relicensure and recertification, allowing clinicians to focus more on learning and less on administrative tasks.

“This milestone reflects our commitment to making continuing education more accessible, relevant, and integrated into clinical practice,” said Peter Bonis, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Wolters Kluwer Health. “As AI becomes part of everyday care delivery, it is essential that these tools support not only clinical decision-making, but also the ongoing professional development of healthcare professionals.”

Using AI responsibly in clinical care means grounding it in trusted medical content. Equally important is ensuring that each healthcare professional’s learning pathway is as practice-relevant as possible, so clinicians can continue to develop the skills they need to practice at their best.
Graham McMahon, MD, MMSc, President and CEO of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME®)

UpToDate is Accredited with Commendation by the ACCME as a provider of continuing medical education for physicians. Accreditation in the ACCME System seeks to assure the medical community and the public that accredited education is relevant to clinicians’ needs, evidence-based, evaluated for its effectiveness, and independent of commercial influence.
