Essential Evidence CME Program

ALL DAY FRIDAY 7/17

“I love the Essential Evidence format - this is so relevant for family medicine really covering what I do every day and focused on benefits for patients.” - Past Annual Convention Attendee

The Essential Evidence program is a unique CME course that uses abstracts of recent literature as the substrate. Each 30-minute talk is a rapid fire review of recent research studies about a particular topic with time for Q&A at the end of each presentation.

The faculty will provide an engaging analysis of the most important research publications. They will present and critically appraise new research evidence and meta-analyses that will either change your practice or confirm that your current approaches are supported by solid evidence from randomized trials and other high quality studies.

The Essential Evidence agenda is being developed. Potential topics for 2026 include: 

• Top 20 POEMs of 2025
• Musculoskeletal Update
• Women’s Health
• New Drugs
• Hypertension update
• Dementia
• Screening and Prevention
• Pediatrics Update

Stay tuned for faculty details and a complete agenda.
