The Foundation for Medical Excellence (TFME) in cooperation with the College of Physician and Surgeons of British Columbia is pleased to announce the 38th Annual Conference in Safe Practice Management, which is now open for registration.

This unique physician training includes four one-hour self-paced presentations discussing approaches to appropriate prescribing, and a one-day virtual conference on April 10, 2026 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. PST where subject matter experts will dive into the nuances of reconciling patient requests with prescribing best practices. 

Participants can earn up to 9 CME credits. 

This year’s theme, Prescribing SMARTer (Safer Care with Minimal Medications and Appropriate and Rational Treatment), gives physicians a chance to elevate their clinical skills in managing patient requests using the SMART framework. Going beyond the basics of opiate and anxiolytic prescribing, participants will navigate the complexity of patient requests for these overvalued medications, and the multi-dimensional impact the usage of these drugs can have on a patient’s life.  

Each self-paced session can be watched on Zoom and will take 40 to 60 minutes to view, including a short quiz at the end to demonstrate mastery of these concepts (required for CME credits).

See the brochure for details.
