Additional information
How many CE hours do Maine physicians need?
Maine physicians need 40 hours of Category 1 continuing medical education every two years. Category 1 hours must come from a program accredited by the American Medical Association, the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education, the Committee on CME of the Maine Medical Association, or the Board itself; Category 1 hours may substitute for Category 2 hours a physician happens to hold, but not the reverse ( Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine — Continuing Medical Education Information ).
Effective February 3, 2026, a physician may instead satisfy the full 40-hour requirement by holding a current American Board of Medical Specialties certification that includes maintenance of certification — a lifetime certification does not qualify — though the 3-hour opioid CME below is still required separately either way ( Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine, Spring 2026 Newsletter ).
Maine runs a birth-month cycle: every physician renews every two years, by the last day of their birth month, with the specific year determined by the parity of their birth year — physicians born in an even-numbered year renew in even-numbered years, and physicians born in an odd-numbered year renew in odd-numbered years ( 32 M.R.S. §3280-A — Biennial Renewal of Licenses ; Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine — MD License ).
Which CE topics are required for Maine physicians?
Every physician must complete 3 hours of Category 1 CME on the prescribing of opioid medication every two years, counted within — not on top of — the standard 40-hour total. The Board includes these three hours within the 40-hour total under its controlled-substance prescribing rule ( Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine — License FAQ ; Board Rule Chapter 21 — Use of Controlled Substances for Treatment of Pain ).
Physicians holding a DEA registration must also complete a one-time 8-hour DEA MATE Training on Opioid or Substance Use Disorder, per the federal MATE Act — not a Maine Board mandate ( DEA Diversion Control Division — MATE Act Training FAQ ).
Do newly licensed Maine physicians need CE for their first renewal?
Not the full amount — and it can also run higher than 40 hours. The Board prorates the requirement by how many months the license has been active before the first renewal expiration, at roughly 2 hours per month held: from 8 hours for a license held 4 months, up through the full 40 hours for a license held 20 to 24 months, and continuing to climb past 40 — up to 46 hours — for a first renewal period that runs 25 to 27 months ( Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine — Continuing Medical Education Information ).
Does the Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine audit CE records?
Yes. Board staff randomly audit 10% of renewal applications each month to verify Category 1 CME, requesting evidence of certification from the physicians selected; any CME discrepancy found is referred to the Board's Licensure Committee for review and a recommendation to the Board ( Maine Board of Licensure in Medicine — Continuing Medical Education Information ). Physicians must maintain a file of their CME activity, both current and historical, though the Board does not publish a specific retention period in years.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the answers to our most frequently asked questions related to course packages
What's the benefit of buying a package over individual courses?
So much! Firstly, you'll save a ton of money by bundling your courses together rather than purchasing them individually. Also, we take the guesswork out of it so that you don't need to scour your board's outdated website to figure out which courses you need to take this year – we've already done that for you, and now you can just focus on learning.
Do I need to take all of the courses included in a package to receive credit?
Nope! You're welcome to purchase a package and if you don't need all of them, you can pick and choose which ones you want to take. PRO TIP: if you don't need all of the courses included in the package for this renewal, you can just leave them in your account and take them next time around.
Can I try out a package?
You are more than welcome to sign up for a package to see if it's the right fit for you. If for any reason it is not, you can request to cancel at any time and are welcome to a refund. The only caveat is that you will still be charged for any courses you complete, for which you've already received credit in the form of a certificate of completion and/or reporting to at least 1 board.
If I want a package, do I have to sign up for the auto-renewing subscription
By default, our system will set up the auto-renewing function upon your sign up, however, with just a few clicks you can disable this under your user settings.

Verified reviewI really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
