Accreditation
The American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians. Only physicians may be awarded AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™. Non-physician health professionals and other participants may not be awarded AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™; however, the transcript serves as documentation of participation to non-physicians.

Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn their required annual part II self-assessment credit in the American Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery’s Continuing Certification program (formerly known as MOC). It is the CME activity provider's responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of recognizing participation.


Credits
AMA PRA Category 1™ (19.50 hours), ABOHNS CC Part II (19.50 hours), Non-Physician Attendance (19.50 hours)
