Back to Top

Ten Cardiac Care Associate (CCA) members will be selected for travel expenses reimbursement for the ACC's 2009 Legislative Conference on September 13-15, 2009 at the Fairmont Hotel in Washington, D.C.

The purpose of this travel award program is to ensure that all CCA members have an opportunity to become more educated about the important work the ACC is doing in the areas of Medicare reform, health system reform, and research and prevention and to encourage them to get involved with important Advocacy issues as they often affect the entire Cardiac Care Team.

Eligibility: Eligibility is limited to Cardiac Care Associate members of the American College of Cardiology.

The Award: Reimbursement of travel expenses incurred traveling to and from the Legislative Conference up to $1,000. Awardees will be selected via a random drawing and will be reimbursed after the conference. Awardees will be expected to document their use of the funds by providing original receipts.

How to Apply: CCAs interested in attending the conference and receiving the travel award, should contact Kelli Bohannon at kbohanno@acc.org.

Application Deadline: July 10, 2009
