Academy members who could not attend this year's Scientific Assembly can still reap CME benefit from the sessions. Access complete versions of 19 lectures presented during the Assembly at http://www.aafp.org/2004lectures.xml. Among the highlights of the online offerings: four Annual Clinical Focus sessions, including the keynote lecture "Genomics and the Family Physician: Realizing the Potential" by Francis Collins, M.D., Ph.D., director of NIH's National Human Genome Research Institute.
Other topics include "Asthma in Children," "Hypertension Update," "End-of-Life Issues" and "Perspectives in Pain Management."
The online taped lectures are accompanied by speakers' biographies, handouts and slide presentations. Each is acceptable for up to 1.5 Prescribed CME credits for a possible total of 28.5 credits that are free to AAFP members. Completed credits will be quickly processed electronically.
A word of caution: Members who attended and obtained CME credit for the lectures in Orlando, Fla., cannot apply for additional credit for the same course online.
