Continuing Medical Education

AIDS Healthcare Foundation is fully accredited by the Accreditation Council for CME and maintains strict adherence to the Essentials and Standards for granting AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™ for physicians who attend.

In support of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation's mission to provide cutting-edge medicine and advocacy, regardless of ability to pay, the CME program provides physicians, nurses and technical support personnel who are employed or affiliated within the delivery system, the medical knowledge base for delivering that health care. Through regularly scheduled medical conferences and seminars in all states in which AHF provides services, practicing physicians, including Internists, Family Physicians, Infectious Disease specialists and their associates, are kept informed of demographic trends, diagnostic tools, current therapies and social services designed to address the health needs of HIV-infected citizens of all ages.

In response to contract mandates with federal and state agencies, physicians and case managers are educated and directed to locate and manage patients who may have limited access to private physicians, hospitals or insurance and managed care services. The expected results of this education and outreach are: firstly, the provision of immediate and long term care to an increasing number of persons living with HIV infection and, secondly, the reduction of costs associated with providing that care, as appropriate management of the disease reduces the incidence of opportunistic infections and hospital admissions. Statistics defining the outcome of these endeavors are regularly collected and reported, forming the basis for educational needs definition among the involved professionals.
