APRIL 2023 SPRING CONFERENCE
FM ESSENTIALS SUMMIT + RESEARCH DAY + ANNUAL BUSINESS MEETING
The PAFP's bi-annual Family Medicine Essential Summits offer your state-mandated child abuse and opioid/pain management CME in one place. That's right! Both the spring and fall FM Essentials Summits — every year! — will include mandated CME — Act 31 Child Protection and Act 124 Opioid education — to meet the full licensure requirement for those credits. New for 2023, we've added even more patient safety CME to the day!
Choose from three registration options:
- Option #1 is a four-hour CME track that covers Act 31 Child Abuse Recognition & Reporting and Opioid/Pain Management mandated CME only.
- Option #2 is a full-day CME schedule that includes your choice of state-mandated CME or a variety of additional patient safety sessions to keep you up-to-date on critical topics, plus lunch! (PAFP members can earn even more patient safety credits FREE online by accessing PAFP's CME webcast library with your member log-in credentials. Non-PAFP members are charged a nominal fee.)
- Option #3 is the PAFP's Annual Research Day, which includes oral presentations, poster presentations, the Annual Business Meeting luncheon and an awards ceremony and reception. Learn more about Research Day.
