Are there any other options for accommodation? Q. What is the temperature going to be? Q. Can my non-medical partner attend the conference for breakfast, morning, afternoon teas and lunch breaks? ANSWERS Q. Is the conference accredited for CME points? A. GPCME South 2010 will apply for endorsement by the The Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners (RNZCGP) for up to 18 hours for General Practice Education Programme Stage 2 (formerly AVE) and Maintenance of Professional Standards (MOPS) purposes. This endorsement will not include the medico-political sessions, Merck Sharp & Dohme Symposium or clinical breakfast sessions. Q. Do I need a Certificate of Attendance for CME points? A. Yes, one will be available in the back of the Conference Proceedings, available at the meeting. Q. Do I send my Certificate of Attendance to Conference Matters to earn CME points? A. No, keep the Attendance Certificate for your records, and apply for your MOPS or AVE CME points through your normal quarterly reporting to the RNZCGP. You may be asked for a copy of your Attendance Certificate by the RNZCGP or New Zealand Medical Council, so file in an appropriate place. While the conference may be approved for up to a maximum of 24 hours GPs
attending can only claim for the conference sessions they attend.
Delegates will need to complete the self-recording form (available in the
proceedings booklet). This form can be kept as the Certificate of
Attendance, so practitioners participating in GPEP 2 or MOPs have the
necessary documentation for submission to the RNZCGP when this is
requested. |
