44 hour QME course

CME certification courses are very rare. Once in a while one pops up.

Los Angeles has one beginning March 21st 2009 http://scuhs.edu/PageInfo.aspx?id=100

The dirty little secret of poor treatment to QMEs if finally making it to the mainstream. In a recent meeting, Medical Unit Manager Suzanne Honor, told the audience of adjusters "Pay the QMEs on time. This really irritates the snot out of me," Honor said. "Pay the med-legal bills for God's sake. What is wrong with you? A lot of time it's your own doctor who hasn't been paid."

Up until now the response following complaint about QME abuse was "That is what the WCAB is for".
