CME/CE Credit

Overview

The purpose of the EP Live Austin conference is to educate cardiac electrophysiology (EP) practitioners to improve diagnosis and treatment of patients who face issues impacting the electrical system of the heart, such as heart failure, arrhythmias, etc. Through recorded and live cases as well as interaction with pioneers in the field, attendees will learn of advances in the management of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, ablation techniques, and lead extraction. An improved understanding of new technology and methods will enable providers to optimize patient outcomes in the management of arrhythmias.

Target Audience

This conference is intended for physicians, advanced practice registered nurses, and allied health professionals in the fields of electrophysiology, cardiology, family, and internal medicine.

Accreditation & Credit Designation

This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of the Academy for Continued Healthcare Learning (ACHL) and EP Live Foundation. ACHL is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

 

The Academy for Continued Healthcare Learning designates this live activity for a maximum of 14.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and nurses may participate in this educational activity and earn a certificate of completion as AAPA, AANP, and ANCC accept AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ through their reciprocity agreements.
