Disclosure Policy

As a provider accredited by the ACCME, AMIA requires that everyone in a position to control the content of an educational activity disclose all relevant financial relationships with any ineligible company for 24 months prior to the educational activity.

Faculty and planners who refuse to disclose relevant financial relationships will be disqualified from participating in the CE activity. For an individual with no relevant financial relationship(s), the participants must be informed that no conflicts of interest or financial relationship(s) exist.

AMIA uses a number of methods to resolve potential conflicts of interest, including: Planning Committee review of disclosures using a Conflict of Interest (COI) resolution rating scale; limiting content of the presentation to that which has been reviewed by one or more peer reviewers; ensuring that all scientific research referred to conforms to generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection, and analysis; undertaking review of the educational activity by a content reviewer to evaluate for potential bias, balance in presentation, evidence-based content or other indicators of integrity, and absence of bias; monitoring the educational activity to evaluate for bias in the presentation; and/or reviewing participant feedback to evaluate for bias during the activity.

AMIA has reviewed all disclosures for this activity and mitigated the potential for bias due to planners’ financial relationships with ACCME/ANCC-defined ineligible companies or its agents.

All AMIA staff involved with content development of the AMIA 2024 Annual Symposium have disclosed no relationships with ACCME- defined ineligible companies.
