CHICAGO – The American Medical Association (AMA) has announced a collaboration with the University of Colorado Anschutz on a new educational video series to help physicians and medical students provide high-quality, patient-centered care for people with disabilities. The Caring for People with Disabilities Series is free and available on AMA Ed Hub, AMA’s online learning platform. “The AMA and physicians everywhere want all patients to receive the best possible care – and that includes patients with disabilities,” said AMA President Bobby Mukkamala, MD. “This new video series addresses that challenge directly, and gives physicians and medical students practical tools to better understand their patients’ needs and improve access to care.” The video series offers free opportunities to earn continuing medical education (CME) credit. Each module in the series is under 30 minutes and accompanied by searchable transcripts. The first five modules in the series are available now and include: Foundational Concepts, Foundations of Clinical Care, Medical Decision-Making, Accommodations and Accessibility in Healthcare and Effective Communication.
