GVHD interactive provider network virtual learning series

NMDP is a GVHD Interactive Provider Network partner. The goal of the Interactive GVHD Provider Network is to connect specialists in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) with community-based providers to share expertise and discuss cases in order to improve patient care.

The network is based on the ECHO Model™ (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes), which uses proven adult learning techniques and interactive video technology to connect community providers with specialists at academic centers in real-time collaborative sessions.

CME credits are available for these sessions.

Target Audience

Physicians of all specialties, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other healthcare professionals who treat patients with chronic GVHD are welcome to attend monthly case-based virtual presentations and discussions

Program Overview

One-hour virtual sessions are designed around case-based learning and mentorship to help primary care and community practitioners gain expertise in GVHD-related topics to provide needed services. Educational objectives are individualized per activity. Each session will include:
