Program Overview

Patients with IBD are at an increased risk of potentially preventable infections and comorbid conditions, many of which are treatable. While the exact drivers of these conditions are uncertain, uptake of strategies to potentially negate these ill effects are lagging. Since patients with IBD often identify their GI as their PCP, GIs need to specifically define and help coordinate the unique needs of these patients with other HCPs. The importance of routine healthcare maintenance (HCM) and prevention has emerged as a crucial objective in the overall delivery of care.

Therefore, this CME-certified series is designed to provide clinicians with expert guidance on HCM guidelines and consensus statements for IBD patients and navigate how to implement these strategies for optimal clinical outcomes with particular focus on vulnerable populations.
