ACAM is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians. In addition to providing medical education, ACAM operates a referral network of physicians who provide integrative medicine therapies. ACAM also conducts an annual meeting each year, typically in November. Education formatACAM's educational format includes instruction in current standard of care, as well as alternative treatment options.[1] ACAM is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.[2] In 2010, ACAM developed an iPhone / iPad application for integrative physicians.[3] Integrative Medical ConsortiumACAM is a member of a collaborative group of integrative medicine organizations that meet to further advance the industry through collaboration, collective dialogue and critical thinking. Other members include The Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM), The International College of Integrative Medicine (ICIM), and the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM). ControversySupport for chelation therapyACAM has long been a vocal proponent for chelation therapy, the efficacy, safety, and much of the theory behind which is disputed by the medical community.[4] In 1998, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) charged that the website of the ACAM and a brochure they published had made false or unsubstantiated claims about the therapy. In December 1998, the FTC announced that it had secured a consent agreement barring ACAM from making unsubstantiated advertising claims that chelation therapy is effective against atherosclerosis or any other disease of the circulatory system.[5][6] In 2014, the ACAM became the first organization to offer online seminars to teach the basics of chelation therapy.[7] References1. ^{{cite press release | url=https://www.reuters.com/article/idUS203425+13-Aug-2010+BW20100813 |publisher=Reuters |author = Business Wire | title=Ani Phyo to Host Raw Foods "Uncooking" Demonstrations at ACAM Fall Conference | date=2010-08-13}}{{unreliable source?|date=January 2014}} {{DEFAULTSORT:American College For Advancement In Medicine}}2. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.accme.org/dir_docs/doc_upload/396c9654-cd5b-4255-b9db-020096dcda31_uploaddocument.pdf |title=ACCME- Accredited Providers |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20060301153204/http://www.accme.org/dir_docs/doc_upload/396c9654-cd5b-4255-b9db-020096dcda31_uploaddocument.pdf |archivedate=2006-03-01 |accessdate=11 August 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.mmm-online.com/apples-tablet-tempts-mobile-cme-app-makers/article/168036/ |title= Apple's tablet tempts mobile CME app makers |publisher= Medical Marketing and Media |date= 2010-04-15 |last= Iskowitz |first= Marc |work= mmm-online.com}}{{unreliable source?|date=January 2014}} 4. ^{{cite journal |vauthors =Knudtson ML, Wyse DG, Galbraith PD |title=Chelation therapy for ischemic heart disease: a randomized controlled trial |journal=JAMA |volume=287 |issue=4 |pages=481–6 |year=2002 |pmid=11798370|doi=10.1001/jama.287.4.481|display-authors=etal}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.ftc.gov/os/caselist/c3882.shtm |title=American College for Advancement in Medicine, File No. 962 3147, Docket No. C-3882|publisher=Federal Trade Commission|accessdate=11 August 2014 |archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20071015174510/http://ftc.gov/os/caselist/c3882.shtm| archivedate= 15 October 2007 | deadurl= no}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.quackwatch.org/02ConsumerProtection/ftcchelation.html |date=December 8, 1998|title=Medical Association Settles False Advertising Charges Over Promotion of 'Chelation Therapy'|publisher=Quackwatch|accessdate=11 August 2014 |archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20071013152754/http://quackwatch.org/02ConsumerProtection/ftcchelation.html| archivedate= 13 October 2007 | deadurl= no}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.acam.org/news/175570/ACAM-Offers-Worlds-First-Live-Webinars-on-Chelation-Therapy.htm|title=ACAM Offers World's First Live Webinars on Chelation Therapy|date=30 May 2014|publisher=ACAM|accessdate=30 June 2014}} 3 : Medical associations based in the United States|Alternative medicine organizations|Medical and health organizations based in Montana |
