CE Credits:

These continuing education activities for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians have been developed through a joint providership of ProCE, LLC and 340B Health. ProCE is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education as a provider of continuing pharmacy education (CPE). Participants attending the Pre-Conference Workshops and the 2021 340B Coalition Virtual Summer Conference CPE activities may earn a maximum of 15.35 contact hours of live CPE credit (1.535 CEUs). Note: some of the CPE sessions are being held concurrently. The sessions offering ACPE credit are designated with a UAN (Universal Activity Number) and hours of CPE credit. The release date for these CPE activities is July 20-28, 2021. Conference registration fees cover the cost of CPE credit. Statements of completion will be issued at http://www.ProCE.com upon successful completion of the online CPE activity evaluations. All evaluations for the live activities must be completed no later than September 10, 2021. No partial credit will be given for any individual session. CE Credits will be automatically uploaded to NABP/CPE Monitor upon completion of each session evaluation. NOTE: participants must “claim credit” in the CE Center for CE credits to be reported to CPE Monitor. Conflict of interest disclosures are required of all faculty and shall be provided to all participants at the conference.

NOTE: Many of the virtual/live CE sessions at the 2021 340B Coalition Virtual Summer Conference will also be available as on-demand sessions beginning in late July. Pharmacy CE credit (for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians) will be offered for the virtual/live sessions and the on-demand sessions. For each individual session offered, participants may claim CE credit for either the virtual/live session or the on-demand session, but not both. The process for claiming CE credit for the virtual/live sessions is separate from the process for claiming CE credit for the on-demand sessions. For the on-demand sessions, to claim CE credit, please follow the unique hyperlink for each individual session that will be made available after you have viewed the on-demand session. Please contact ProCE at info@ProCE.com with any questions or issues regarding the CE credit process.

A CE booklet for ACPE credits with additional information and space to record codes is provided on the home and FAQ pages of the conference platform. CE booklets to track attendance for ACHE and other types of credits are also available.

Please Support the Coalition Winter Conference Charity:

Each conference we select a local charity to receive the proceeds from our fun walk/run. With the summer conference traditionally being our east coast conference, we have chosen to support the MobileMed, a non-profit that reaches thousands of low-income, uninsured, and Medicaid enrolled residents of Montgomery County, MD through a network of 7 primary care and 2 specialty care clinics located throughout the county. With a mission to improve the health of low-income people who face the greatest barriers to care access we hope you’ll take a moment to contribute if you didn’t during the conference registration process. If you didn’t contribute with your registration we hope you will visit their website and make a contribution today.
