0137_PAMFG_2nd Annual CME Conference_Live

San Francisco, CA US

September 9, 2023

Course Description:

The 2nd Annual PAMF CME Conference 2023 is is designed to solve a fundamental gap recognized by the PAMF medical education team in 2018 that current CME strategies were not meeting team members' needs and as result had extremely low attendance (~20- 30 people per activity). To delve deeper and understand the problem of why the CME program was not doing too well, a Lean A3 was designed, and results showed that 73% preferred getting CME credits at a single event that delivered timely and relevant content, such as a conference, versus attending multiple 1-hour sessions throughout the year. This sparked the idea of hosting a PAMF-wide Conference to bridge this gap and the response has been overwhelming with over 200 spots filled in just 2 weeks. This educational activity is focused on presenting new and emerging evidence on key topics in Primary Care that have been carefully selected due to high disease state prevalence in our system, topics that are necessary for learning enhancements, and that are current/trending such as the opioid Epidemic, comprehensive healthcare for the transgender community, and use of digital technology. The day-long program is subdivided into 3 sections addressing preventative health for minds and bodies, population health initiatives, and new strategies in the management of chronic diseases. This conference not only serves as a forum to enhance learning on disease management/treatment but is a means to increase interaction between medical professionals, to learn from and with each other, which is especially crucial at this time. This collaborative learning environment is designed to inform each other on how to apply medical technological advances and skills learnt, thereby increasing the opportunity to improve patient care.
