Earn Category 1A CME Credits - POMA Clinical Assembly Outcomes Survey
The POMA is conducting a short outcomes survey for the POMA 105th Annual Clinical Assembly. The survey is derived from questions the speakers asked during their lectures and were selected based on attendee responses during the clinical assembly.  Your participation in this survey helps us measure learning to plan for future CME programs. 

Physicians who attended the convention and complete the survey in its entirety can earn 3 Category 1A AOA CME credits (survey credits are dependent on the number of credits earned at the clinical assembly). These credits are applicable to the current Pennsylvania licensure cycle
 
To complete the survey online, please visit http://www.poma.org/survey/TakeSurvey.asp?SurveyID=30J5p30Jml9M1.

You can also download the survey and return it to the POMA Central Office, 1330 Eisenhower Boulevard, Harrisburg, PA 17111-2395, or fax (717) 939-7255.  If you are faxing the survey, remember to fax both sides!
