Provider siteWho it's best for
- Nurses topping up their CE total at zero cost
- Clinicians who already use Medscape's reference tools
Pros
- Genuinely free: no paywall on the CE itself
- Real ANCC accreditation accepted in virtually every state
- Tight integration with Medscape's clinical news flow
Cons
- Limited course depth compared to paid providers
- Less coverage of state-specific mandatory topics
- Pharma-industry sponsorship on some content; verify commercial support disclosures
Our recommendation
Always worth checking what Medscape has free before paying for it elsewhere. Treat as a top-up source rather than your primary CE library.
