DOs, this year is a big one! For the first time, Super Saturday includes Florida Laws & Rules, so DOs can earn hours toward three of their state-mandated topics in a single day: Medical Errors Avoidance (2 hours), Opioid Prescribing (2 hours), and Florida Laws & Rules / Professional and Medical Ethics (1 hour). DOs earn 3.0 AOA Category 1-A credits plus 2.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™, with accreditation through the Florida Osteopathic Medical Association.

MDs will earn their required hours in two state-mandated topics, Medical Errors Avoidance and Opioid Prescribing, plus an additional hour of general CME, for a total of 5.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.

Schedule:
8:30 – 9:00 AM | Sign-in and coffee & pastries
9:00 – 11:00 AM | Medical Errors Avoidance with Anna Uniacke and Dr. Cramer
11:00 – 11:30 AM | Lunch
11:30 AM – 1:30 PM | Opioid Prescribing with Dr. Steichen and Dr. Buchalter
1:30 – 2:30 PM | Florida Rules & Laws with Jason D. Winn

This event is FREE for ECMS members and Resident Physicians.
Non-members pay $100, which is waived if you join ECMS prior to registration.

Not ready to join today? Pay the $100 fee, and if you become a member any time before the end of 2026, we'll apply that $100 toward your first year of membership. Your CME is essentially free either way!

Please bring a colleague! We especially want to welcome DOs from across Escambia and Santa Rosa Counties, members and non-members alike. Forward this invitation to anyone who could use these hours.

ECMS 2027 Board Installation & Member Awards Dinner (Thursday, January 21, 2027)

Thu, 21 Jan 2027 23:30:00 GMT

Join Us for the 2027 Board Installation & Member Awards

Thursday, January 21, 2027
5:30 PM | Culinary Productions, 201 E Wright St, Pensacola

Please join the Escambia and Santa Rosa County Medical Society for an evening of dinner, cocktails, and celebration as we install our 2027 Board of Directors and honor our members with the Member Awards.

After a few years of casual afternoon gatherings, we're excited to return to a more traditional board installation. Think of it as an elevated business dinner rather than a ball: polished and celebratory, but relaxed. Attire is dressy casual, or come straight from work.

The evening includes

Cocktail hour with drinks by Tap the Coast
A pasta bar dinner with salad and dessert
Installation of the 2027 Board of Directors
Member Awards

Tickets

Single tickets: $75 each
Table of 8 sponsor: $950

Please RSVP by January 14, 2027

We hope to see you there!
