Up to an additional 20.0 CME credits are available for viewing for the educational sessions that you did not claim already in-person.

– Recorded content will be available to registrants AFTER the meeting has concluded. Please allow up to four weeks after the meeting has concluded for the content to be available through the Mobile Meeting Guide.
