Did you know?

The Joint Standing Committee on Rural Issues (JSC) released a new process to distribute Rural Continuing Medical Education (RCME) funds to eligible physicians. Physicians will no longer be required to go through an application process and submit receipts to receive their RCME benefits. Earned RCME funds will now be directly paid to rural physicians. The health authority kindly requests your patience as we implement this substantive change in process. Any further questions about your individual funds can be made to Heather Gummow.
