Thank you - 2023 Summer Forum Attendees
Thank you to both in-person and virtual attendees of the 2023 Family Medicine Summer Forum.

We hope that the learning experience was as enjoyable and worthwhile for you as it was for the FAFP leadership and staff.

As a reminder, if you have not done so already, please claim your CME credits by completing and submitting your evaluation no later than September 2, 2023. CME credits earned from the meeting will be reported to AAFP and CE Broker within 30 days, provided you have completed and successfully submitted the evaluation. Please do not report your credits to AAFP/CEBroker as this delays the process in proper reporting to the state. 

We look forward to seeing you again soon!

DEA Required Training Deadline
Drug Enforcement Agency explained on a card held by a hand
This is a friendly reminder that beginning June 27, 2023, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will now require one-time attestation of eight hours of CME accredited training on management of substance use disorders (SUDs) prior to renewal of a DEA registration.

The FAFP responded by quickly developing education courses that satisfy the requirement addressing the treatment and management of opioid and other substance use disorders. The best part is, it is provided at NO COST to FAFP members.

In fact, all FAFP enduring educational programs provided in the FAFP Online Library are offered complimentary to FAFP members and can be completed at your own convenience.

This is yet another example of how the FAFP provides value-based programs and services to support our members. Click here for FAFP SUD topics, learning objectives, and SAMHSA core curriculum elements.
