Palabras clave: educación médica continua, congresos médicos, modelos híbridos, accesibilidad formativa, diseño educativo

Resumen

En el contexto actual de transformación digital, resulta pertinente revisar el modelo tradicional de congresos médicos exclusivamente presenciales. Esta reflexión analiza el coste real (económico, laboral y personal) de dicho formato, así como la evidencia disponible sobre la eficacia de modelos online e híbridos en educación médica continua. Se discute además la influencia de los modelos de financiación en el diseño de los eventos formativos. Finalmente, se propone la adopción de formatos híbridos diseñados de forma deliberada, centrados en el impacto educativo y en una mayor accesibilidad para los profesionales sanitarios.
