The Ohio Academy of Family Physicians (OAFP), in partnership with the Indiana, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin chapters of the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), is excited to announce that registration is open for the virtual Knowledge Self-Assessment (KSA) group study focused on Hypertension scheduled for Sunday, October 4, at 5:30 p.m.! This program is limited to the first 45 OAFP members to register and typically takes four hours to complete.
This innovative program will use a robust web-based system that allows family physician learners from across the country the opportunity to complete the KSA while engaging their peers and an expert content leader from a location of their choosing.
Although live KSA group studies are a popular way of completing the required Family Medicine Certification activity, this program is innovative in developing a virtual learning session and delivering it nationwide to a large group of physician learners at the same time. This cutting-edge program will bring the issues of hypertension directly to the physician’s home or office with guidance from a peer expert and the knowledge sharing that occurs when completing a KSA with fellow family physicians.
A completed KSA will provide 10 certification points and 8 live continuing medical education credits toward ABFM certification requirements.
For members, the cost to attend is $85 (ABFM fees still apply). For more information and to register, please visit the OAFP website. The deadline to register is Friday, September 18. Participation is open to the first 45 registrants. Any registrants after the first 45 will be placed on a waiting list. The overall virtual KSA attendance will not exceed 150 participants.
Please contact Director of Foundation & Strategic Programs Kaitlin McGuffie or call 800.742.7327 with questions or for more information.
Bonus! This year, we will hold a second virtual KSA group study on Sunday, November 1, focused on Care of Children. Watch for registration to open soon.
