Event Overview
Welcome message:

This year we have much to share about new programs, initiatives, and guidelines! Come hear Emily Godfrey, MD, MPH cover the clinical wisdom in the newly published U.S. Selected Practice Recommendations. Ward Cates, MD, MPH, will preview the changes that will be coming in the new 2014 CDC STD Treatment Guidelines. Have you heard of the new Choosing Wisely initiative sponsored by ABIM Foundation, along with Consumer Reports? It’s a national campaign to reduce unnecessary testing, and Michael Policar, MD, MPH, will call out the tests you will want to think twice about before ordering. On the last day we devote an hour to rapid-fire presentations on what’s too new to have made it onto our conference agenda, in the always dynamic Late Breakers on Innovations in Reproductive Health.

You read the big headlines last year about how the IUD is 20 times more effective than the pills, right? There's still more to learn from an update by the CHOICE Project Director Jeffrey Peipert, MD, PhD. Attend the Conference Luncheon on Thursday where Clare Coleman will key you in on practical considerations with the rolling enactment of provisions under the Affordable Care Act. And we have a new option this year—a chance to engage in small group discussions, facilitated by the authors and our expert faculty members, at the Roundtable Luncheon on Friday.

Last, but certainly not least, are the array of presentations on what you need to know to update and refine your clinical care: everything from managing unscheduled bleeding on hormonal contraception, considering post-pregnancy contraception, and supporting sexual health, to teasing out the drugs that interact with hormonal methods, looking into future developments of contraception, and breaking bad news. All this, and we haven't even begun to tap the 5 Preconferences and 25 Concurrent Sessions you can choose from to design your own personalized agenda.
