Thank YOU for helping end conflicts of interest and bias in CME Learning objectives

ACFAS SCienTiFiC ConFerenCe |

Phoenix

| Phoenix ConVenTion CenTer | FeBrUArY 19 – 22, 2015

Physicians, medical societies, CME providers, and industry are all under increasing scrutiny by government and the media to weed out conﬂicts of interest (COI) in all aspects of medical delivery, education, and purchasing. The new CMS “Open Payments” system is just one recent example of exposing conﬂicts of interest between physicians and industry to patients and the public.

ACFAS has long had the most stringent COI policies in podiatry. Our proactive approach is what diﬀerentiates ACFAS programs from other CME providers and ensures you receive the most bias-free information possible. Two recent examples:

In 2013, ACFAS started a COI complaint and discipline system. Every CME evaluation form allows space for attendees to report any bias that occurred during the program. In addition, an online bias complaint/speaker discipline system was implemented. In 2014, ACFAS adopted a Code of Interactions with Companies that fosters high ethical standards for ACFAS leaders in their relationships with companies. See this document at ACFAS.org/conﬂicts.

These and other steps have resulted in faculty members disclosing more conﬂicts, a reduction of bias during lectures, and an increase of attendees reporting bias to the College. But there is always room for improvement. Please let us know if you have any concerns by:

If you hear a speaker mention or promote a product in their presentation, either verbally, or by wearing a logo, using industry-produced slides, or similar action, please report it on the ACFAS session evaluation form. Or you can report it at ACFAS.org/conﬂicts. If you feel any ACFAS leader (e.g., board or committee member) involved in CME programming has violated the Code of Interactions with Companies, please report it at ACFAS.org/conﬂicts.

Repeated comments, if corroborated, may result in the speaker being excluded from future ACFAS programs. No other podiatric CME provider is this proactive in weeding out conflicts and bias. If you have any other suggestions or comments regarding CME conflicts of interest or bias, please write to the Conflicts of Interest Committee at conflicts@acfas.org.
