CME Information
The Annual Meeting will provide continuing medical credits based on attendees’ participation in the activity. Attendees can claim credit by completing the evaluations for the sessions attended via a survey sent following the event. Completion of session and global evaluations is required, and evaluations may be submitted only once. Therefore, attendees should not begin evaluations until they have completed participation in the certified content for which they wish to claim credit.
