September 16 – 18, 2026 – The Kahler Grand Hotel – Rochester, Minnesota
This annual interdisciplinary course provides participants with an overview of current topics in internal medicine, featuring interactive case studies that utilize an automated audience response system. Interdisciplinary speakers present diverse clinical topics chosen for applicability to NP/PA and primary care physician practice settings. As complex patients transition care to the outpatient arena, current guideline-based medicine, typically initiated in the hospital setting, remains important as patients transition out of the acute care setting.
Target Audience
This conference emphasizes clinical care issues confronting busy clinicians, including current pharmacology content. The program is designed for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and primary care physicians.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:
- Summarize the latest updates on vaccine recommendations.
- Describe evidence-based management strategies for pulmonary diseases.
- Discuss pharmacological therapies for the treatment of diabetes.
- Identify the role of resilience and well-being for medical professionals.
- Evaluate emerging and updated treatment strategies for cardiovascular disease.
- Apply recent advancements in gynecologic care to improve patient management.
