CONFLICT-OF-INTEREST POLICY FOR THE ASH ANNUAL MEETING
ASH is committed to providing quality, objective, balanced, and scientifically rigorous continuing medical education activities that are free from commercial and non-commercial bias. In accordance with the rules of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME), ASH policy requires that all meeting session chairs, speakers, and moderators disclose in writing prior to the meeting any financial relationships they may hold with companies in the healthcare and biotechnology industries. Poster presenters are likewise required to disclose in writing any financial relationships they may have prior to the meeting and display their disclosures as a part of their poster presentation. If bias, actual or perceived, occurs during the presentations, session attendees are encouraged to address such bias during the question-and-answer periods following the presentations.

All ASH annual meeting presenters (including invited chairs and speakers, and abstract presenters and moderators) are asked to disclose any relationships of the following types: Employment, Consultancy, Stock Ownership, Research Funding, Honoraria, Patents & Royalties, Speakers Bureau, Membership on an entity’s Board of Directors or advisory committee, and any other financial relationship including Travel Support.

Any questions about this policy or concerns regarding disclosures should be directed to [email protected].

NON-CME SESSIONS
ASH is committed to continuously re-evaluating our policies and processes to ensure that they align with the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education’s (AACME) increasingly stringent standards. The ACCME defines Ineligible Companies (IC), also known as commercial interests, as those whose primary business is producing, marketing, selling, re-selling, or distributing healthcare products used by or on patients. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, including biomedical startups and diagnostic laboratories with proprietary products, are classified as ineligible companies and, per ACCME, any presentation given by employees of industry is considered to be promotional in nature and therefore ineligible to be accredited.

There are a number of programs and sessions in the program that are not accredited for CME. Please note that oral and poster abstracts are no longer included in the accredited programming.

The final list of non-CME sessions is subject to change. Accredited sessions will be labeled on the virtual platform and an up-to-date list of sessions will also be available.

Disclosure Policy

In accordance with the ACCME Standards for Commercial Support, the American Society of Hematology (ASH) requires that individuals in a position to control the content of an educational activity disclose all relevant financial relationships with any commercial interest. ASH resolves all conflicts of interest to ensure independence, objectivity, balance, and scientific rigor in all educational programs. Furthermore, ASH seeks to verify that all scientific research referred to, reported, or used in a CME/CE activity conforms to the generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection, and analysis. ASH is committed to providing learners with high-quality CME/CE activities that promote improvements in health care and not those of commercial interest. ASH staff who control content have no relevant financial relationships to disclose.

ACCREDITATION AND CREDIT DESIGNATION
The American Society of Hematology (ASH) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians. ASH designates this enduring material for a maximum of 40 AMA PRA Category 1 CreditsTM. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. Physicians who participate in this CME activity but are not licensed in the United States are also eligible for AMA PRA Category 1 CreditTM. To earn these credits, readers must pass two online tests (malignant and classical) based on articles from Hematology 2023.

ABIM MOC
Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn up to 40 MOC points in the ABIM’s MOC program. It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credit.

CLAIMING CME CREDITS AND ABIM POINTS
The estimated time to complete this educational activity is 40 hours. To claim CME credit, users must complete an evaluation of the product and a test of medical knowledge, both of which are accessed through ASH Academy on Demand (academy.hematology.org). There is a one-time processing fee for claiming CME/MOC credit. Users with scores of 80% or better on these self-assessment modules are eligible to claim credit for the activity.

To facilitate claiming of credit, the test for this product is divided into two subtests, one of which focuses on malignant hematology content with the other focusing on classical content. Successful completion of each test earns the user 20 AMA Category 1 PRA CreditsTM. Users claim CME and/or ABIM MOC credit for each test individually. You can take one or both tests, depending on your CME and MOC needs.

The malignant and classical hematology tests consist of 20 questions each. The questions in each test can be answered in one sitting, or a user can save their progress and return to complete the test at a later time.
