VIRTUAL CONFERENCE

Update related to COVID (updated November 2020): We are in full motion with our all-virtual conference now. Registrations will be accepted at any point up to or during the conference. We are using Zoom Webinar to host our webinar.
PROGRAM OBJECTIVE: This program will provide participating practitioners the ability to identify frequent office maladies and inform them of the latest trends in medicine. This program is most relevant to primary care and internal medicine physicians, as well as physician’s assistants and nurse practitioners.

CME CREDIT: The NWOOA certifies credit hours in conjunction with the Ohio Osteopathic Foundation. The Ohio Osteopathic Foundation is accredited by the American Osteopathic Association to provide osteopathic continuing medical education for physicians. The Ohio Osteopathic Foundation designated this program for a maximum of
23 hours of AOA Category 1-A credits (with completion of post-program survey)
and will report CME in accordance with the extent of the physicians’ participation in this activity. No credit will be given to those physicians who fail to submit their attestation form immediately following the conference.
The Ohio Board of Nursing will accept, at face value, the number of hours awarded for an educational activity that has been approved for CE, provided it was approved by a nationally accredited system of CE approval.
