Fellowship training is still a relatively new concept to ACFAS Members. There are many questions about fellowship training, start-ups, rules, guidance, development, selection, hospital support and practice setting issues. This HUB session will be focusing on sharing not only the positive pearls that contribute to a successful fellowship, but also on the negative pitfalls that should be avoided by both fellows and directors.

Do you need help seeing patients? Do you want more time available to see new patients or have time off and not having to close your office?

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, continuing medical education, and purchasing. The 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 biasfree information possible. For example, in 2015: 䡲
䡲
ACFAS revised its Conflict of Interest Policy and Disclosure Form. Disclosures are now maintained online and will soon be available for online member inspection, ACFAS has adopted a Code of Interactions with Companies that includes over 64 high ethical standards for ACFAS leaders and program development. See this important document at ACFAS.org/conflicts.

Thank YOU for helping end conflicts of interest and bias in CME
56
For more information, visit ACFAS.org/conflicts Questions/comments? conflicts@acfas.org
These and other steps have resulted in faculty members disclosing more conflicts, a reduction of bias during lectures, and a decrease of attendees reporting bias to the College. But there is always room for improvement. Please let us know if you have any concerns by: 䡲
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.
䡲
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. Is it perfect? No. So, 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.
