In order to comply with the ACCMEs Criterion 2 and 3, all activities must identify the gap between the participant’s current practice and the best practice or achievable practice. Please assist us in determining the educational gaps for your presentation by completing the table below.

An example of a completed GAP is included below

Current Practice

1a) current practice: Physicians reported that they had difficulty delivering a diagnosis of dementia to patients and family members.

Best Practice

1a) best practice: Patient and family understand and accept diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease 1b) source/location of best practice: ABMC MOC communication with patients and caregivers (AAFP) Guidelines for Managing Alzheimer’s Disease, 2002 www.aafp.org/afp/20020615/2525.pdf 1c) key points: Summary of diagnostic criteria in language that patient and family will understand
