In other educational news, DOs looking for an easy way to earn AOA CME online should be aware of a new webcast, “No Sugar Coating Required,” which educates physicians about incretin-based therapies.  This unique program will highlight the comparative effectiveness and safety of these agents, appropriate patient selection, timely treatment initiation, and common barriers to glycemic control through the use of a simulated patient. Faculty will interview a patient, replicating an actual office visit, and present supporting evidence to address the clinical concerns raised in the patient interview. At the conclusion of each talk, the faculty panel will discuss the case and offer clinical pearls and interviewing approaches to overcome patient-related barriers. The AOA has approved this webcast for 2.5 AOA 1-B CME credits​; it will expire on 12/30/12.
