Mandatory Medical Ethics (MME) Webinar Series
This is a five-webinar series of 1 hour each. The topics will cover the SMC requirements to meet the mandatory medical ethics for continuing medical education: (1) Professionalism; (2) Informed Consent; (3) Ethics Analysis; (4) Medical Records; and (5) Privacy and Confidentiality. Each session will include a short didactic lecture covering the salient content knowledge required for the topic and faculty will then illustrate the ethical principles using case examples to provide guidance on practical application. The session will conclude with a Q&A session to allow participants to clarify doubts and raise specific cases that have troubled them. As an example of the didactic content, the Informed Consent session will cover the components of informed consent: (1) Decision-making capacity, (2) Voluntariness, (3) Disclosure of Material Advice and (4) Authorization to proceed. Relevant legal principles from the Hii Chi Kok judgement and Section 37 of Civil Law Act will also be addressed. Special situations such as consent in persons under the age of majority, implied consent and presumed consent will be covered as well.
