Current Practice Issues in Neurology
The interactive Current Practice Issues in Neurology session
“Do Payer Rankings Keep You at the Top of the Class or Give You
a Failing Grade” will give neurologists a chance to hear directly
from both a CMS Medical Officer and a private payer Medical
Director to gain a better understanding of how to properly interpret
their details from the Quality and Resource Use Reports (QRUR)
and physician designation programs; how to determine if the
information is accurate; the importance of ensuring your rating
is accurate; what the steps to take are if there are discrepancies
with their information; and navigate through and utilize the CMS
Physician Compare website and other available resources.
The Academy is pleased to offer this event to continue developing a

doing, even if it only confirms that we are doing the up-to-the-date
thing. I learn some new ideas, things that have worked, things that
haven’t worked. The best part is that [the AAN has] put everything
on the web or app, which is new. Major improvement.”

Public Leadership in Neurology
Award Winner Ben Utecht
NFL star-turned-singer Ben Utecht will receive the American
Brain Foundation’s 2014 Public Leadership in Neurology
Award for his commitment to spreading the word about how
concussions and traumatic brain injury have affected his life.
After winning a Super Bowl ring in 2007, his career ended
unexpectedly after a traumatic brain injury in 2009. Many saw
this as an ending, but Ben saw an opportunity to pursue
another lifelong passion—singing.

The AANI designates this live activity for a maximum of (*) AMA
PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit
commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
*See individual program descriptions in this booklet for the maximum
number of credits per program.
CME/Participation Records
knowledge, skills, and professional performance and relationships
that a physician uses to provide services for patients, the public or
the profession. The content of CME is the body of knowledge and
skills generally recognized and accepted by the profession as within
the basic medical sciences, the discipline of clinical medicine, and the
provision of health care to the public. (HOD policy #300.988)
Certified CME is defined as:
1.Nonpromotional learning activities certified for credit prior to
the activity by an organization authorized by the credit system
owner, or
2.Nonpromotional learning activities for which the credit system
owner directly awards credit
Accredited CME providers may certify nonclinical subjects (e.g.,
office management, patient-physician communications, faculty
development) for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ as long as these
are appropriate to a physician audience and benefit the profession,
patient care, or public health.
AANI has mechanisms in place to record, and when authorized by
the participating physician, verify participation in the CME activity. To
receive CME for the Annual Meeting live program, participants must:
(1) register for the program(s); (2) attend the program(s); (3) submit
the evaluation form for the program(s). CME is given only when all
three steps are completed. AAN member CME and participation
transcripts are available approximately four to six weeks following
the close of the meeting via the AAN’s NeuroTracker AAN.com/cmeand-moc/track-and-view-transcript/ . Nonmembers’ CME credits and
participation transcripts will be sent via email.
CME activities may describe or explain complementary and
alternative health care practices. As with any CME activity, these
need to include discussion of the existing level of scientific evidence
that supports the practices. However, education that advocates
specific alternative therapies or teaches how to perform associated
procedures, without scientific evidence or general acceptance among
the profession that supports their efficacy and safety, cannot be
certified for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™.
Core Competencies
The AANI, as an ACCME accredited provider, is responsible for
validating the clinical content of CME activities that it provides.
Specifically, 1. All the recommendations involving clinical medicine in
a CME activity must be based on evidence that is accepted within the
profession of medicine as adequate justification for their indications
and contraindications in the care of patients. 2. All scientific research
referred to, reported or used in CME in support or justification of a
patient care recommendation must conform to the generally accepted
standards of experimental design, data collection and analysis.
The AANI develops its activities/educational interventions in
the context of the desirable physician attributes. Specifically, the
AANI develops its educational interventions in the contents of the
Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) Core
Competencies which include:
¡¡ Patient Care
¡¡ Practice-Based Learning
and Improvement
¡¡ Medical Knowledge
¡¡ Professionalism
¡¡ Interpersonal and
Communication Skills
¡¡ Systems-Based Practice
For more information on the definitions of the ACGME core
competencies, please consult the following webpage:
www.acgme.org
Once again, this year’s Annual Meeting CME offerings, at the program
and lecture level, are identified according to these competencies.
Through identifying individual programs by competencies, attendees
can easily identify and attend programs that meet each core
competency.
AMA CME Definition/ Educational Content of
Certified CME
The AMA HOD and the Council on Medical Education have defined
continuing medical education as follows: CME consists of educational
activities which serve to maintain, develop, or increase the

Content Validation
Disclaimers/Disclosures
AAN/AANI Education/Scientific Disclaimer
The primary purpose of the Annual Meeting is to meet the
educational needs of its members and address practice gaps by
providing practice-oriented and scientifically based educational
activities that will maintain and advance competence and
performance in the field of neurology.
A diversity of opinions exists in the medical field and the views of the
Annual Meeting faculty do not represent those of the AAN/AANI or
constitute endorsement by the AAN/AANI. The AAN/AANI disclaims
any and all liability for the claims that may result from the use or nonuse of information, publications, therapies, and/or services discussed
at the Annual Meeting.
2O14 Scientific Abstract Listing and Annual Meeting Information
Relationship Disclosure and
Conflict of Interest Resolution
Internet Kiosks
According to AANI and ACCME policies, everyone who is in a
position to control the content of an education activity must disclose
financial relationships with any commercial interest to the provider.
An individual who refuses to disclose relevant financial relationships
is disqualified from being a planning committee member, a teacher,
or an author of CME, and cannot have control of, or responsibility for,
the development, management, presentation or evaluation of the
CME activity. In addition, the AANI must implement a mechanism
to identify and resolve all conflicts of interest prior to the education
activity being delivered to learners. The resolution of conflict is
handled by the Education and Science Committees. Disclosures for
everyone in the position to control Annual Meeting content can be
found on the AAN Annual Meeting website. In addition, education
and science faculty disclosures can also be found in the syllabi, slides,
handouts, and/or is done verbally from the podium.
Unlabeled Use Disclosure
The AANI requires all Annual Meeting presenters to disclose if a
therapy/product is not labeled for the use being discussed or if the
therapy/product is still investigational. Unlabeled use disclosures can
be found in the program materials.
Education Grants
Some Annual Meeting education and scientific programs
are supported in part by educational grants from commercial
entities. Disclosure of the educational grant is done through
acknowledgement statements on the program materials, signs
outside of the room, and verbally from the podium. Although
educational grants are received, all programs are developed and
implemented solely by the Education Committee and Science
Committee. The terms, conditions, and purposes of the commercial
support are documented in a written agreement between the AANI
and commercial supporter. The AAN uses grant funds to support and
enhance existing, as well as new, education programs.
The internet kiosks provide attendees with computer workstations
and Internet access. Check email, search the AAN website, or
complete online evaluations to obtain CME Credit.

Hotel Reservations
Why Book a Hotel Room Through the AAN?
Booking your room through the official AAN housing company assures you are getting a room at the hotel that best fits your
needs. You are also helping the AAN maintain consistent and competitive registration fees. The reason is simple. When a city is
selected as the site for the AAN Annual Meeting, contracts are signed with several hotels reserving a specific number of rooms
to be available for meeting attendees. If these rooms are not sold, the AAN is liable financially. Penalties incurred affect the
overall costs of the Annual Meeting and what the AAN charges for registration, exhibit space, and other services.
Save on Hotel Reservations
Take advantage of the AAN’s special hotel rates to make your trip
more affordable. Annual Meeting hotel reservations are processed
by Convention Management Resources (CMR).

Travel Tips
Travel Documents/Passports and
Entry Requirements
Non-US visitors must have valid travel documents/passports to
enter Philadelphia to provide proof of their citizenship. Document
requirements vary depending on your country of origin, citizenship,
the reason for your visit, and the length of your stay, and may include
passport or a birth certificate, photo ID, and/or a visa.
For more information, or to request a Letter of Announcement for the
2014 Annual Meeting, visit AAN.com/view/AMinfo.

Cash machines/ATMs are available in most banks, hotels, and
shopping centers. For denominations under one dollar, the
currency is coins.
Customs and Immigration
From an international point of arrival, upon arriving in Philadelphia,
you will be required to go through a US Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) inspection. Before you land, your flight crew will
distribute an Immigration and Customs Declaration Form for you to
complete; forms are also available at the airport upon your arrival.
You will need to present this form, along with your passport, visa (if
any), and return tickets to the CBP officer.

Measurements
Philadelphia uses the United States customary system for weights
and measurements. If you choose to drive in Philadelphia, be aware
the speed limits are posted in miles per hour.
Medication
If you are entering Philadelphia with prescription drugs and syringes:
keep the medication in its original, labeled container; include medical
certificate with syringes showing they are for medical use and have
them declared to US Customs officials; bring an extra prescription
in case your medication is lost and/or to attest to your need to
take such prescriptions; and carry the generic name of
prescription medicines.

Philadelphia is in the Eastern Standard Time Zone. In April it will be
the same time as New York, one hour ahead of Chicago, three hours

whole new phase of life. It’s called a Life Reimagined.
