Excerpt

To earn CME credit, you must read the CME article and complete the quiz on the enclosed form, answering at least 70% of the quiz questions correctly. Select the best answer and place a check mark or an X mark in the corresponding space on the enclosed answer form. Do not fill in the answer box completely. Please indicate any name and address changes directly on the answer form. If your name and address do not appear on the answer form, please print that information in the blank space at the top left of the page. Make a photocopy of the completed answer form for your own files and mail the original answer form in the enclosed postage-paid business reply envelope. Your answer form must be received by Wolters Kluwer Health by July 30, 2005. At the end of each quarter, all CME participants will receive a progress report detailing their activity. This report will contain the volume and issue numbers, issue dates, credits earned, and participant answers and correct answers to quizzes submitted. In addition, all participants will receive an annual certificate in February awarding the total credits earned during the previous year. For more information, call (800) 787-8981.
