online career center and a College
Benefits Partner, is hosting the
third annual ACFAS Job Fair
at the annual Conference.
Employers can take advantage
of the PodiatryCareers.org online
career center and also post their
positions on paper on a bulletin
board at the Job Fair. Those
seeking positions will have an
opportunity to post their resumes
online and at the Job Fair as well.

3. Fellowship: Pearls and Pitfalls
for Fellows and Directors
You Can Do That? Marketing Yourself
to Other Health Care Professionals
and Stakeholders: Are you constantly
educating other providers on the
procedures you perform? Does a unit
of local government not understand
your education and training? Come learn
from seasoned professionals how to best
market your foot and ankle surgeon
credentials to the less informed.
Fellowship training is still a relatively new
concept to ACFAS Members. There are
many questions about fellowship training,
start-ups, rules, guidance, development,
selection, hospital support and practice
setting issues. This HUB session will be
focusing on sharing not only the positive
pearls that contribute to a successful
fellowship, but also on the negative pitfalls
that should be avoided by both fellows
and directors.

an understanding of market trends and
compensation which will help you land
a position upon graduation.

Physicians, medical societies, CME providers,
and industry are all under increasing scrutiny by
government and the media to weed out conflicts
of interest (COI) in all aspects of medical delivery,
continuing medical education, and purchasing. The
CMS “Open Payments” system is just one recent
example of exposing conflicts of interest between
physicians and industry to patients and the public.
ACFAS has long had the most stringent COI
policies in podiatry. Our proactive approach is what
differentiates ACFAS programs from other CME
providers and ensures you receive the most biasfree information possible. For example, in 2015:
䡲
䡲
ACFAS revised its Conflict of Interest Policy
and Disclosure Form. Disclosures are now
maintained online and will soon be available
for online member inspection,
ACFAS has adopted a Code of Interactions
with Companies that includes over 64 high
ethical standards for ACFAS leaders and
program development. See this important
document at ACFAS.org/conflicts.

Thank YOU for helping end conflicts
of interest and bias in CME
56
For more information, visit ACFAS.org/conflicts
Questions/comments? [email protected]
These and other steps have resulted in faculty
members disclosing more conflicts, a reduction of
bias during lectures, and a decrease of attendees
reporting bias to the College. But there is always
room for improvement. Please let us know if you
have any concerns by:
䡲
If you hear a speaker mention or promote a
product in their presentation, either verbally, or
by wearing a logo, using industry-produced slides,
or similar action, please report it on the ACFAS
session evaluation form. Or you can report it at
ACFAS.org/conflicts.
䡲
If you feel any ACFAS leader (e.g., board or committee member) involved in CME programming has
violated the Code of Interactions with Companies,
please report it at ACFAS.org/conflicts.
Repeated comments, if corroborated, may result in the
speaker being excluded from future ACFAS programs.
No other podiatric CME provider is this proactive
in weeding out conflicts and bias. Is it perfect? No.
So, if you have any other suggestions or comments
regarding CME conflicts of interest or bias, please
write to the Conflicts of Interest Committee at
[email protected].

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Attendees of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons Annual Scientific Conference
will be able to:
Utilize evidence-based guidelines on reducing
operative complications.
Understand pathologies leading to foot and ankle
pain and deformity. The attendee will learn systematic
approaches for evaluation of foot and ankle deformity
as well as understand concomitant pathomechanics.
The selection of diagnostic imaging modalities and how
these studies influence the treatment method will be
discussed. The content experts will review the trending
research to help guide best standards of practice.
Understand best practice guidelines and accepted
practices. Based on the clinical experiences of the panel
of experts and the conclusions of the medical literature,
the attendee will become familiar with optimal
management strategies of foot and ankle conditions.
Develop and refine surgical acumen and skills
through lectures and workshops. Attendees will learn
new surgical techniques through hands-on workshops
emphasizing tissue handling, use of latest implants,
and prevention of complications guided by experts
in the field.
Establish ethical practices. The attendee will be
exposed to common ethical considerations relating
to the practice of medicine and understand the
multifaceted nature of the doctor-patient relationship.
The changing landscape of healthcare with the
influence of social media, healthcare policy, and
digitalization of medical records will be discussed.
Treat traumatic injuries of the foot and ankle. The
attendee will recognize the various traumatic injuries
and fractures that occur in the foot and ankle. The panel
of experts will review triage, diagnostic studies, surgical
planning, surgical technique, and rehabilitation practices
to manage these injuries.
Examine the role of imaging in diagnosing foot
and ankle conditions. The attendee will examine the
available imaging studies to effectively evaluate foot
and ankle abnormalities and treatment planning.
AUSTIN
Appreciate the medical conditions leading to
pathology in the foot and ankle. The attendee will
appreciate the underlying systemic diseases that
affect planning and outcomes of surgical intervention.
The attendee will identify common manifestations
of systemic diseases in the lower extremity as well as
understand how to prevent the complications related
to these systemic diseases.
Recognize pediatric deformities presenting in the
foot and ankle. The attendee will recognize common
pediatric foot and ankle deformities. Clinical diagnosis,
proper selection of surgical procedures, and timing and
techniques will be emphasized to demonstrate proper
management of pediatric foot and ankle pathologies.
Evaluate and treat. The attendee will become familiar
with the clinical criteria used to evaluate and treat
forefoot, midfoot, rearfoot, and ankle pathologies.
Conservative and surgical treatments will be based
on evidence-based literature and clinical knowledge
provided from expert panels.
Understand deformities of the foot and ankle that
cause gait abnormalities and pain. The panel of
experts will review clinical diagnosis and the surgical
management of the pediatric and the adult flatfoot and
cavus foot. Operative interventions will be discussed,
including procedure selection and description of the
