For Dentists, 16 hours is the total CME requirement. Wyoming also requires a set of one-time topics that count toward the 16-hour total.
“3 of those 16 hours MUST be related to the responsible prescribing of controlled substances”
“The required BLS is in addition to your 16 hour requirement. BLS hours cannot count toward your 16 hour requirement.”
Credit must come from an organization accredited by the ACCME, AMA, Wyoming Medical Association, or AAFP. ACGME residency or fellowship time accrues toward the requirement. Teaching or presenting accredited CME can satisfy a portion of required hours.
