You read that subject line correctly. The Ohio Academy of Family Physicians is providing you, its members, a unique two-part program that offers you FREE American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) credits, American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) Family Medicine Certification points, and an atmosphere of teamwork, camaraderie, and fun!
Here’s how:
The OAFP is seeking 16 practice teams to join us on Saturday, April 6, 2019, at the Embassy Suites in Dublin, OH, to take part in a quality improvement (QI) program to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening rates in their practice.
We know, we know, it’s on a Saturday – which might be a hard sell for your team. However, registration is free for everyone, we’ll have lots of food, it’ll conclude by 4 p.m., we’ll pay for your travel, and all members of the care team can claim credit for attending!
Once registered, you’ll receive important information via email from the OAFP staff about your participation at the CRC Team Training Day and more details about the second part of the program – utilizing the online data collection module (which is where the ABFM points and additional AAFP credits come into play).
Come Saturday, April 6, 2019, you and your team will attend the CRC Team Training Day, hear from expert speakers, and create an office protocol that will be implemented once you’re back in the office.
Next, you’ll implement your changes into practice for six months and watch how team morale and patient outcomes improve!
At the end of six months, you’ll enter outcomes data into the online module and your credit will be reported on your behalf to the AAFP and the ABFM respectively.
Finally, once all data is collected and credits reported, we’ll send you a $250 stipend for all your hard work. Exciting opportunity, don’t you think?
- Travel reimbursement for each team member attending the CRC Team Training Day.
- AAFP Live Prescribed CME credits for participation in the CRC Team Training Day (approximately 5 CME credits). These are transferable to all members of the care team.
- A $250 stipend for each team that completes the online module.
- ABFM Family Medicine Certification Performance Improvement Activity credit and 20 more AAFP CME credits for physicians.
Trust us, it’s a can’t miss opportunity!
Register today as spots are limited and will fill up fast.
More information on the CRC Team Training Day can be found on the OAFP website.
