With a full program offering the most continuing medical education (CME) credit hours ever offered at an HFSA Annual Scientific Meeting, HFSA2020 will bring attendees a virtual array with the best of science, research and practical management ideal for all members of the interdisciplinary heart failure care team.
To make the virtual meeting more accessible to attendees within the United States and beyond, HFSA has reduced registration fees and timed the most critical sessions during convenient evening and weekend hours. HFSA members can attend the meeting for less than $100. Non-members can attend for $200 or less.
"A virtual meeting uniquely provides greater flexibility and accessibility for attendees. To carry those benefits forward, we have reduced our registration rates, focused our content on the most critical topics and scheduled program sessions around the important work of our attendees," said Biykem Bozkurt, MD, FHFSA, and President of the Heart Failure Society of America. "Session content will be available OnDemand immediately following live presentations, and stays available for up to 90-days. Ultimately, HFSA2020 attendees can access all the latest science and CME credits at times that work best for their schedules."
