Information for Bring Your Own Patient Session Moderators and Speakers
What is a Bring Your Own Patient Session?
Delegates will have the opportunity to submit cases from their own practices for discussion. The session leaders will collect all the submitted cases and select three to five cases for discussion. It is hoped that this format will personalize the meeting for the delegates.
As moderator, you are responsible for…
Working with confirmed speakers to develop specific session content. Once they are all confirmed, you will be notified via e-mail. You should contact the speakers well before the meeting to ensure that their presentations fit the learning objectives. You will also be responsible for reviewing the submitted cases and selecting three to five cases for discussion. You are also responsible for verifying that the session content is free of commercial bias. Your staff liaison can organize a conference call for the session participants if you would like.
Assisting the staff liaison assigned to your session with the collection of necessary materials from your speakers. The timely collection of disclosure statements, handouts, and audio-visual presentations is essential to the overall success of your session and your assistance in this area will greatly increase their likelihood.
On-site management of your session. It will be your job to make introductory announcements, to introduce your speakers, and to ensure that they and your session begin and end on time.

Development of a presentation appropriate to the specific topic identified.
