HM10 PREVIEW: Still Taking Reservations

From: The Hospitalist, March 2010

by Richard Quinn

HM10 is planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint sponsorship of Blackwell Futura Media Services (BFMS) and SHM. BFMS is accredited by ACCME to provide CME for physicians.

Regular registration is available on SHM’s Web site (www.hospitalmedicine.org) and remains available until March 28. SHM also permits walk-up registration during HM10 at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in National Harbor, Md. However, remember that last year’s meeting sold out a couple weeks ahead of time.

BFMS designates the educational activity for SHM’s annual meeting at a maximum of 20 Category 1 credits toward the AMA Physician’s Recognition Award. Each physician should claim only those hours of credit they actually spend in each educational activity. BFMS has designated a credit schedule for HM10’s pre-courses on April 8 as follows:

• ABIM MOC learning session, 6.5 credits;
• Critical Care, 7.25 credits;
• Documentation and Coding, 7.5 credits;
• Early Career Hospitalist, 7.5 credits;
• Essential Neurology, 7.25 credits;
• Essential Procedures, 3.75 credits;
• Practice Management, 7.5 credits; and
• Quality Improvement Skills, 7.75 credits.
