This bill allows physicians to earn one credit of continuing medical education (CME) specifically focused on menopause as part of their license renewal process. The State Board of Medical Examiners is tasked with incorporating this optional credit into the required CME credits for physicians, which is a condition of their biennial registration. The bill outlines that the menopause education will cover various topics, including the physiological and psychological aspects of menopause, available treatments, associated health risks, best practices for management, and effective patient communication strategies.

Additionally, physicians who complete the menopause education modules will receive CME credits that contribute to their total requirement of 100 hours for license renewal. They will also have access to financial assistance for training costs, public recognition for completing the modules, and specialized CME tracks for relevant specialties. The Department of Health is responsible for promoting these educational programs and ensuring they remain current with the latest research, while an advisory committee will monitor the effectiveness of the training initiatives.
