*As this pandemic continues to spread across the US and beyond, PPA has received many questions regarding this year’s annual symposium.  We know that many companies are taking actions to prevent/suppress the spread of the virus, which includes limiting business travel. Based on the unknown immediate future regarding company travel, at this time the PPA Executive Steering Committee has made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Procedure Symposium.  While this is very disappointing, we feel it’s the right thing to do for our membership. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to any member of the PPA Steering Committee. 

Thanks for your continued support and understanding as we all work through this challenging time.
