I belong to a number of interactive lists for physicians. None offer CME's. I do not see how one could document one's contribution to or knowledge enhancement by participation online. Besides attending conferences, physicians may receive CME credit for listening to audiotape digests of medical abstracts or reading journals such as the American Family Physician or Pediatrics in Review, but only if they enroll in a program that requires their completing and submitting multiple choice tests on the material they read. I think LactNet is professionally benefical and that to try to attach CEU or CME credit to participation may have certain negative effects, such as attracting participants whose primary interest is not engaging in the professional exhange of knowledge and support.I expect that most of the current participants and those likely to join us have abundant opportunities for accumulating CEU's/CME's.
