In my experience, the sponsors of CME makes valiant effort to be free of bias for its own products. I find what most CME events do lack are the perspectives on the importance of self-management education. There seems to be an implicit bias for the importance of medication over that of patient empowerment. (Even though self-management are Grade 1A. recommendations on national guidelines by CANMAT, CDA, CCS-lipid ) I think these CME events can become great opportunities for open ended discussion that promote a growing awareness on how to provide an even more balanced and effective approach to healthcare.
