Dear Colleague,
I invite you to join me and your colleagues in
internal medicine at the next scientific meeting
of the Colorado Chapter of the American College
of Physicians, being held February 5–7, 2015, at

This meeting is not just for ACP members. I
particularly want to invite nonmembers to join
us for this important clinical update and to
learn about the benefits of membership at the
same time.
In addition to earning 9.25 CME credits, by
attending this meeting you will:
• Gain insight into recent medical advances.
• Discuss local and national issues affecting the
practice and teaching of internal medicine.
• Greet old friends, meet new friends, and
develop a network of colleagues in your area.
• Take some time for yourself or with your
family to relax and enjoy the sights around
Colorado Springs.
Between scientific sessions, please visit the
College table. You will find information on new
ACP programs, products, and services. There’s
always something new at the College table—
stop by and see for yourself.
This educational activity
has been designated for
9.25 CME credits.
To ensure your place at this invaluable meeting,
register now by visiting www.acponline.org/
about_acp/chapters/co/news_meet.htm and

Chapter Excellence Award
Winner
We are pleased to
announce that
our Chapter is
the recipient of a
2014 Chapter Excellence Award. The
Chapter Excellence Award recognizes
those chapters that excel in reaching
the standards for managing a chapter,
such as communicating to members,
instituting Medical Students’ and
Resident/Fellow Members’ activities,
and advancing and recruiting members.
A Chapter Excellence certificate will
be awarded at the meeting.
Who Should Attend
• General internists
• Subspecialty internists
• Family practitioners
• Hospitalists
Evergreen Award
The Evergreen Program was created
in 1993 by the College to recognize
and reward outstanding chapter efforts.
The Evergreen Program provides visibility to those chapters that have been
successful in implementing programs
that increase member communication
and involvement.
Each year all chapters are invited to
nominate their own programs, and
to provide details on the goals of the
program, how it was implemented,
and what the results were. The Chapter
Subcommittee has the difficult task
of selecting a small group of chapters,
which are recognized nationally and
locally for their achievements.
We are excited to announce the 2014
Evergreen Award was presented to our
chapter for the Do No Harm Project
at IM 2014 in Orlando.
