analgesic agents and multimodal analgesic protocols into perioperative and
acute pain medicine.

variables that are improved by effective regional anesthesia and pain medicine.
- Identify key aspects of the Affordable Care Act
relevant to the practice of regional anesthesia and pain medicine services and
describe their challenges and opportunities

Target audience
The ASRA CME program provides educational activities to physicians, residents, fellows, and scientists. ASRA supports a multi-disciplinary and inter-professional approach to continuing education and patient care by also providing relevant education for other healthcare professionals not directly engaging in interventional regional anesthesia and/or pain medicine procedures. ASRA offers learning opportunities to the national and international healthcare community.
