AMA Section Council Requests House of Delegate Attendee Names


Officials from the Society’s Section Council on Anesthesiology of the American Medical Association (AMA) would like to know the names of the ASA members planning to attend the AMA’s House of Delegates on December 1-5, 2001, in San Francisco, California.

The Section Council is open to all anesthesiologists who attend the AMA House of Delegates meeting. The Section Council meets to discuss resolutions and other issues of importance to anesthesiologists. Meetings usually take place on Saturday and Monday of the AMA House of Delegates meeting. If you are attending the House of Delegates meeting, the Society would welcome your participation.

To be placed on the mailing list to receive information on the Society’s AMA Section Council meetings, please send your name, address, telephone number, fax number and reason for attendance to Ronald A. Bruns, ASA Executive Office, 520 N. Northwest Highway, Park Ridge, IL 60068-2573; fax (847) 825-1692; e-mail <R.Bruns@ASAhq.org>.

‘Calendars for Meetings’ on the Web

Locating anesthesia-related education courses and meetings has never been easier. New features on the ASA Web site allow members to search for relevant events and meetings by date, location, keyword, 25 different subject categories or by simply choosing to show all events on the site.

Submission of courses, events and meetings in anesthesiology has also been simplified. One simply clicks the “Submit An Event” button on the Meeting Calendar Web page, fills out the necessary information electronically and clicks “Add New Event” to add it to the hundreds of other anesthesiology events already listed.

Due to the efficiency and easy access of the Web version of “Calendars for Meetings,” the printed version is set to be phased out after the July 2002 edition. For those who wish to submit information for the January 2002 booklet version, information must be received no later than December 1, 2001. As usual, no telephone submissions will be accepted, and entries are limited to anesthesia-related, physicians’ continuing education and meetings.

Submissions to the Web version can be sent any time and will be posted to the Web within three days after submission.

For further information, contact the ASA Communications Department, 520 N. Northwest Highway, Park Ridge, IL 60068-2573; telephone (847) 825-5586; e-mail K.Yetsky@ASAhq.org. Web submissions can be sent by accessing <http://events.ASAhq.org>.
