International Attendees International Fellows, guest physicians, and meeting attendees: Please be aware that the process of obtaining a visa to attend meetings in the U.S. takes much longer than in the past. You are strongly urged to apply for a visa as early as possible, preferably at least 60 days before the start of the meeting. You may request a letter welcoming you to the meeting from the College by contacting the International Liaison Section by e-mail at postmaster@facs.org or by fax at 312-202-5001. General Sessions The registration fee includes admittance to all general sessions. In order to assist us with planning meeting room space, please take a moment to determine which general sessions you plan to attend and indicate those selections on the registration form. The ACS policy regarding children is as follows:
This policy includes infants in strollers and arms. Accreditation The American College of Surgeons is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians. CME Credit The American College of Surgeons designates this educational activity for a maximum of 27.5 category 1 credits toward the AMA Physician's Recognition Award. Each physician should claim only those credits that he/she actually spent in the educational activity. In the back of the Spring Meeting program book you will find your official attendance verification card for reporting CME credit. This card is your personal record of attendance at the 2006 Spring Meeting. In addition, CME certificates may be obtained in the registration area of the hotel from 3:00 pm Sunday, April 23, 2006 through Wednesday, April 26, 2006.
