Nearly 50 physicians and health care professionals completed 20 credits of Continuing Medical Education during LECOM's first CME conference in Hawaii. The conference ran from September 20-23, 2010.

LECOM clinical faculty members presented the latest medical information regarding health problems commonly seen in the offices of primary care physicians. The objective of the four-day seminar was to provide participating physicians with information about new medical advancements in order to increase the scope of treatment options available to primary care physicians and to enhance the physicians' existing knowledge of topics that were covered.

Now that the conference has concluded, participants should complete the LECOM 2010 Primary Care Update Outcomes Survey. This will help the LECOM CME team to evaluate the effectiveness of the conference program.
