MIDAS+ Seeker—Continuing Medical Education and Committees
With Continuing Medical Education (CME) and Committees functionality in MIDAS+ Seeker, you have a
comprehensive package for tracking providers’ external and internal CME activities and attendance and current
committee/department membership and attendance.
CME activities help ensure that healthcare providers maintain a level of clinical competence
in their practice of medicine. Use CME in MIDAS+ Seeker to track CME activities external to
your organization as part of the credentialing process and to coordinate and provide CME
activities within your organization for accreditation from the American Council of Continuing
Medical Education (ACCME).
Committee and service or department participation is often used as an evaluator for continued
medical staff membership. Use the Committee Roster and Attendance functions in
MIDAS+ Seeker to track current committee/department roster membership, maintain a historical
archive of membership, schedule recurring meetings, and track meeting notifications,
RSVPs, and attendance, as well as stipend payments to medical staff leaders.
Features and Benefits
- Track CME items such as course title, objective, course type, date, time, location and fee information, as well as category and credit by attendee, sponsor information,
organization, and physician vs. non-physician attendees
- Use CME to manage multiple meetings on the same day
- Use Committee Roster functionality to track roster data such as committee and department name by organization, organization staff membership, membership dates, type of membership, and stipend information, including frequency of payments and dates paid
- Use Committee Attendance functionality to record meeting notification and attendance information for providers, organization staff, and guests
- Schedule recurring meetings (daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly) for CME and Committee activities
- Calendar Viewer function provides users with a daily, weekly, or monthly view of all CME
and Committee activities, and calendars can be exported to HTML for posting on an
organization’s intranet
- Use Standard Reports to easily generate summaries of CME and Committee activities for
a specific date range, view detailed attendance information for specific providers for a
specific date range, or generate a sign-in sheet for committee meetings

"University Medical Center implemented MIDAS+ Credentialing in 1988 and upgraded to the Windows version in 2000. In 2001 we worked with ACS as the alpha test site for Web Access. The implementation of this product has resulted in making a labor-intensive process almost invisible, saving hours previously required to verify medical staff membership—and it has been received with enthusiasm by healthcare organizations who can now query and receive a response at their convenience, not ours. This is the best product yet!"
