The Stacks are a virtual series, which provides valuable, focused educational content to bridge the times of year when live courses are not available. From the pandemic, we have learned the value and convenience of digital education. With this stack, Adding Allergy to Your Practice, we provide basic content to allow you to understand how to get started with practicing clinical allergy.

As an Otolaryngologist, allergy is a common mechanism causing diseases of the head and neck.  The Adding Allergy Stack will begin with an overview of allergies in head and neck disease, followed by basic immunology before a dedicated session on adding allergy.

The AAOA Basic and Advanced courses provide more in depth detail which will help you develop a comprehensive inhalant allergy practice.

The stack will be available for a time-limited cohort, until November 30, 2024.

Accreditation Statement

The American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

AMA Credit Designation Statement

The American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy designates this live activity for a maximum of 6 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

ABOHNS Continuing Certification Recognition Statement

Successful completion of this CME activity, which includes participation in the evaluation component, enables the participant to earn their required annual part II self-assessment credit in the American Board of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery’s Continuing Certification program (CC, formerly known as MOC). It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of recognizing participation.

In order to claim ABOHNS Continuing Certification credits, you must be fully certified by the ABOHNS. You are considered fully certified once you have taken both the written and oral exams and successfully passed both.

Non-Physician CME

Only physicians may be awarded AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™. Non-physician health professionals and other participants may not be awarded AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™; however, a transcript serves as documentation of participation to non-physicians and for self-submission to satisfy the CME credit requirement, if applicable.

For non-physicians looking to fulfill the AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ requirement and  self-submit, you can send your transcript and proof of the AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ statement on the AAOA activity page.

For more information, please contact the accrediting body for which you would be submitting CME credits to or email meetings@aaoallergy.org.
