Warning about MedCEU.com CE Provider

[HeyFraydo]

Some CE providers are claiming accreditation but they aren't when you go to confirm it. One example is http://www.medceu.com . I use to be registered with them. It was pretty convenient ...you pay a flat fee like $35 and you could do unlimited for a year. You read some material that was decent and did a post test and print a certificate. Later I and some other nurses noted that we were double billed one year and later found out that they were not certified through the ANCC or any ANCC approved certifier. They have a warning about them on the ANCC approved provider/certifier list. For some reason they are still in business. I talked with the ANCC and they said they had filed complaints with numerous regulatory agencies. I guess technically you could use them for contact hours from non accredited sources but I won't because of the double billing, false advertising and the fact that they send you email ads constantly ( I had to finally cancel an old address). They never answer emails and have no phone number.

Medscape is a good one (free, and it keeps a running tally of what you've completed, nice bonus)

Medpage also

I think the AHA has some too?
