In collaboration with the ABA, and informed by feedback from board-certified anesthesiologists, the ASA supports a streamlined, efficient process for reporting AMA PRA Category 1 Credits ™ earned through MOCA Minute participation.  \nCME credits for MOCA Minute are reported on a quarterly schedule, and payment for non-ASA members is collected at the same interval. This approach ensures that MOCA Minute CME credits are recorded in the year they are completed and helps anesthesiologists stay on track with their annual MOCA requirements in a clear, organized and timely manner.  \nHow do I get started?  \nTo begin claiming AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for answering MOCA Minute questions, simply opt in during your annual MOCA registration. We recommend registering before the end of the first quarter to maximize the number of credits you may earn in a year.  \nHow do I earn credits? How many credits can I claim in a year?  \nMOCA Minute questions are designed to be answered over time (e.g. 30 questions per quarter) . Thus, after opting in, you will earn CME credits for answering 30 MOCA Minute questions in the quarter they were intended, for a total of 120 questions per year. You will still get CME credit if you do not answer questions correctly. You may earn up to 10 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ in a year, or 2.5 for each quarter in which you answer the assigned 30 MOCA Minute questions, as illustrated in the chart below.  \n\n| Q1 – MOCA\u003Cbr>Jan. 1 – March 31\u003Cbr>Questions Answered | Q2 – MOCA\u003Cbr>April 1 – June 30\u003Cbr>Questions Answered | Q3 – MOCA\u003Cbr>July 1 – Sept. 30\u003Cbr>Questions Answered | Q4 – MOCA\u003Cbr>Oct 1.– Dec. 31\u003Cbr>Questions Answered | CME Credits Earned |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 30 | 30 | 30 | 30 | 10 |\n| 0 | 60 | 30 | 30 | 7.5 |\n| 0 | 0 | 90 | 30 | 5 |\n| 0 | 0 | 0 | 120 | 2.5 |\n\nWhat happens if I answer all 120 MOCA Minute questions in the last quarter of the year?  \nWe recommend answering MOCA Minute questions over time, rather than all at once to promote continuous learning and knowledge retention (you will also earn more CME credits if you answer MOCA Minute questions on a quarterly basis) . You will only earn AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ for answering 30 MOCA Minute questions in the quarter they are intended. For example, if you answered all 120 MOCA Minute questions in the final quarter of the year, you would earn 2.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ .  \nIs the ABA providing CME credit?  \nNo, the ABA is not a CME provider and will not financially benefit from your participation in this opportunity. The ASA has accredited this program. Each quarter, we will provide the ASA with areport of everyone who has opted in and completed all 30 quarterly MOCA Minute questions. The ASA then uploads 2.5 credits to your ASA transcript and ABA GO portal within 30 days of receipt.  \nHow much does it cost to participate?  \nParticipation is free for ASA members. Non-ASA members will pay a $40 quarterly processing feeto the ASA for each quarter in which they answer all 30 MOCA Minute questions. This processing fee is paid directly to the ASA and is separate from the annual MOCA program fee. Non-ASA members must pay the $40 quarterly processing fee in their ASA Education Center account within 60 days of notification in order to claim that quarter's credit, as illustrated below.  \n• Quarter 1 (Jan. 1-March 31) credits – Non-member must purchase by June 1  \n• Quarter 2 (April 1-June 30) credits – Non-members must purchase by Sept. 1  \n• Quarter 3 (July 1-Sept. 30) credits – Non-members must purchase by Dec. 1  \n• Quarter 4 (Oct. 1-Dec. 31) credits – Non-members must purchase by April 1  \nIs my annual MOCA program fee waived if I partic","cbCaijk33OYMgKZV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijk33OYMgKZV","pdf",420287,"English","# MOCA Minute CME overview\n## Who provides the CME credit\n## How to get started\n## How credits are earned and calculated\n## What if you answer all questions in the last quarter\n## Cost to participate (ASA vs non-ASA)\n## Is the annual MOCA program fee waived\n## Is participation required\n## Can you start earning credits any point in the year\n## Can you opt in later in the year\n## When credits are reported to ABA GO portal","[{\"question\":\"How do I opt in to earn AMA PRA Category 1 Credits for MOCA Minute?\",\"answer\":\"Opt in during your annual MOCA registration.
