    Rush Fees

    You have the option to rush your CME credit application and receive a review decision faster than the standard 15 business days. The Credit System reserves the right to determine whether the application qualifies for the rush option. A request for a rush may be denied if the reviewer has determined that additional information is required in order to finalize the review.

    The AAFP reserves the right to deny a rush request for any reason at any time. Rush review fees are in addition to the regular review fee.

    • Standard Rush: Standard rush reviews will be completed in 3-5 business days. The rush fee is $695.
    • Same-Day Rush: Same-day rush service is available for $1,995 and is subject to availability.
       

    Re-review of Applications

    A $125 re-review fee will be charged for all applications that are revised after the official AAFP CME credit determination letter has been sent to the CME provider.

    Re-review fee will be applied if:

    • The program content changes
    • The CME provider seeks to change the number of approved CME credits
       

    A re-review fee does not apply in the event of:

    • A change to the start or end date of the activity
    • Speaker or faculty changes
       

    You can request a rush at the time of application submission on the Final Submission page. If you have already paid for your application and would like to request a rush, please email us at cmecredit@aafp.org. For re-reviews, please email the Credit System at cmecredit@aafp.org
