ABSTRACT

The physician never stops his/her education. Continuous medical education has many tools: self-learning; electronic information, and correspondence and resident courses. Continuously education usually has been oriented toward specialist physicians, but of late has been directed toward general physicians, who provide primary care to 85% of the general population.
The National Program of Actualization for General Physicians (PRONADAMEG) of the National of Academy of Medicine is offered at 76 headquarters to more than 10,000 students, initially with 400 hours over four semesters, sufficient for certification; at present, 200 hours over four quarters, it affords sufficient points to obtain general physician recertification.
Student age is not a limitation, for physicians enrolled in PRONADAMEG as well as physicians who recently graduated. From medical school we have added at the end of every medical specialty a round table with active participation of students and a clinical for graduate medical can attend.
