Accreditation: The American Geriatrics Society is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Continuing Education Hours: The American Geriatrics Society designates this live educational activity for a maximum of 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ (7.5 credits for May 2; 4.5 credits for May 3). Physicians should claim only credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Disclosure of Financial Interests
As an accredited provider of Continuing Medical Education, the American Geriatrics Society continuously strives to ensure that the education activities planned and conducted by our faculty meet generally accepted ethical standards as codified by the ACCME, the Food and Drug Administration, and the American Medical Association’s Guide for Gifts to Physicians. To this end, we have implemented a process wherein everyone who is in a position to control the content of an education activity has disclosed to us all relevant financial relationships with any commercial interests within the past 12 months as related to the content of their presentations and under which we work to resolve any real or apparent conflicts of interest.
Faculty conflicts of interest in this particular CME activity have been resolved by having thepresentation content independently peer reviewedbymembers of the Annual Meeting Program Committeeand, in some instances, an additional content expert. The existence of commercial or financial interests of speakers related to the subject matter of their presentations should not be construed as implying bias or decreasing the value of their presentations. However, disclosure should help participants form their own judgments.
All speakers were independently selected by the organizing committee. Those speakers who disclosed affiliations or financial interests with commercial interests involved with the products or services to which they may refer are listed below.
The following faculty have returned disclosure forms indicating that they (and/or their spouses/partners) have no affiliation with, or financial interest in, any commercial interest that may have direct interest in the subject matter of their presentation(s):
