For several years now in many jurisdictions doctors can’t renew their licenses unless they take mandatory hours of continuing education in such things as treating homos, treating minorities and multiculturalism. You must take those hours or you will not have your license renewed. The government has the docs by the balls.
“For several years now in many jurisdictions doctors can’t renew their licenses unless they take mandatory hours of continuing education”
This is a trend in all licensed professions. I have to do the same as a Professional Engineer. Now as to specific requirements for specific continuing education, I can’t speak to that.
If anything, medical licensing will have to be eased and the responsibilities of doctors will be diluted- because many doctors will simply retire or choose something else rather than put up with these requirements - and not enough doctors are in the pipeline to make up the difference.
So again, you will be left to your own devices to make sure someone is actually qualified - not that you would have recourse if they weren’t.
