CMA Health Summit 2025 Virtual Fee Waiver

[Chris Johnston]

Following @Donna-Rubenstein's post about CMA's in-person sponsorship offer for the CMA Health Summit on March 27-28, I had inquired about virtual attendance.

After some correspondence, CMA have now committed to waive the fee for virtual attendance for PWLE.

Email from Audrey Grandmaison, Senior Advisor for Public & Patient Engagement:

I wanted to follow up with you. Registration went live today - CMA Health Summit 2025. The final pricing is $195 for in-person attendance and $50 for virtual. However, we are offering comped registration for the PWLE virtual category. The process is not the most obvious (something to work on for next year), but the program is available.

From the website registration instructions:

CMA is offering a program to offset potential barriers to attendance. PWLE in financial hardship may have the registration fee waived. Email yourquestions@cma.ca with your request (there is no burden of proof) and we will follow up with you. This is only available for the PWLE virtual attendance category.
