Rockpointe, American Kidney Fund team up for Kidney Summit 2019

Registration is open for Kidney Summit 2019, a collaboration between Rockpointe and the American Kidney Fund that is designed to update clinicians about the latest treatments, guidelines, and quality measures regarding chronic kidney disease (CKD) care. This free continuing medical education (CME) activity, intended for nephrologists and nurse practitioners who diagnose and manage patients with or at risk of CKD, will be held Sunday, October 27, at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth, TX; Friday, November 15, at Georgia State University in Atlanta, GA; and Sunday, December 8, at the University of Illinois in Chicago, IL. Each summit features three sessions offering a total of 4.5 hours of CME, ANCC, and MIPS credits, and is eligible for American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) Maintenance of Certification (MOC) points.
As a strategic partner, the American Kidney Fund – the nation’s leading nonprofit working on behalf of the 30 million Americans with kidney disease – will ensure that the “patient voice” is represented throughout the activities, in line with an Institute of Medicine report that recommends shared decision-making between patients and clinicians. The sessions will provide participants with tools and resources to improve clinician-patient communication, and the Atlanta summit will conclude with a Patient Forum at Georgia State University.--> READ MORE
