AAMA CMA Practice Question

A medical assistant at a cardiology practice is invited by a pharmaceutical representative to attend an all-expenses-paid weekend seminar. The seminar is on a new heart medication that the company is promoting, which could potentially be prescribed to patients within the practice. What is the most appropriate action for the medical assistant to take in order to avoid a potential conflict of interest?

  • Attend the seminar and accept only the informational material from the pharmaceutical company while there.

  • Politely decline the invitation and avoid attending events that could create a conflict of interest.

  • Accept the invitation but ensure that any prescribed medications are based solely on their merits and benefits to patients.

  • Attend the seminar but only participate in the educational sessions and not the recreational activities.
