2020 ANNUAL REPORT

The pandemic tested and confirmed the strength of the AANA Membership, Governance and Staff. We not only adapted and survived, but also evolved and innovated. With the launch of the Fellowship Education Series, Webinar Wednesdays and DocMatter, the global reach of AANA continued to expand.

2020: A YEAR OF INNOVATION2020 was a challenging year. In spite of the obstacles posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, AANA demonstrated its continued ability to support our members with critical resources. The Practice Service Organization, a group of AANA volunteers, focused on delivering our members’ needs to the forefront and identified new opportunities to provide practice support and efficiencies to our membership.

New initiatives include:

• A partnership with Your Practice Online, a reputation management service created to assist members with website development, social media presence, branding and much more – all at discounted rates.

• A collaboration between the Hawkins Foundation and Sharecare designed to help AANA members respond to value-based reimbursement reporting requirements.

• A new Fellowship Education Series to assist fellowship programs by providing education on ACGME-required curriculum topics offered in a subscription series of webinars covering a variety of topics.

As we look ahead to what we can achieve together in the coming year, we are optimistic about the future. AANA is truly an exceptional group of professionals, and we are confident we will accomplish our highest objectives in 2021.

THE IMPACT OF COVID-19

The pandemic impacted all facets of our lives and in so many different ways. AANA worked hard to continue supporting members through education in the safest ways possible.

Hybrid courses were a retooled version of AANA’s classic lab courses. The new structure reduced travel and included pre-course online learning, synchronous webinars, focused lab time and post-course online activity with pre- and post-test for learning validation.

AANA Safe Strides™ initiative was developed to support AANA lab courses. By eliminating Friday coursework and social gatherings, rethinking lunches, lab gowning and conducting the registration process in a staged schedule, AANA was able to bolster safety precautions allowing attendees to participate safely.

The Novel Coronavirus webinar produced, marketed and conducted in 72 hours with 392 registrants.

The first online Specialty Day product was produced, including the inaugural AANA Innovations Lecture by Stephen S. Burkhart, MD entitled, The Basis of Innovation: Depth, Breadth and Tenacity.

The AANA20 Highlights webinar was held which included presentations from winners of the O’Connor, Resident/Fellow, Burkhart and Patellofemoral Research awards to feature content for which they were being awarded.

The inaugural synchronous streamed demonstrations on hip arthroscopy using cadaveric specimens.

Collectively, we reduced expenses and reforecasted the education revenue to ensure fiscal success for education initiatives.

EDUCATION

EXPANDING PROGRAMS

This year, AANA launched a variety of new programs to continue training and educating our members. The following are just a sampling of what we accomplished together.

We continued to provide comprehensive, skills course programs that included increased involvement of the Associate faculty to provide more lectures and alternative perspectives.

The Fellowship Education Subscription launched to ease the burden of ACGME requirements on fellowship programs. This 20-webinar series exceeded expectations and exceeded goals!

The Webinar Wednesday series launched with a 12-month schedule, which highlights expert faculty and utilizes related society collaboration.

A Skills Testing Task Force was launched to explore a staged development of an initiative that would allow for skills testing and receipt of certificate of completion for residents, fellows and physicians in practice.

An E-learning Work Group was formed to focus on new product development for 2020 and beyond. The goal is to develop new products that will generate revenue, offer CME, serve as reinforcement education and attract attendees to AANA face-to-face CME activities.

We retooled Probe, AANA’s push-learning initiative to deliver CME right to members’ inboxes with a full-year subscription.

AANA executed its first contract with ISAKOS for a knee /shoulder course at the Miami Anatomic Research Center, planned for 2021.

AANA was awarded government funds for the arthroscopic education of military Orthopaedic Surgeons.

RESEARCH AND SURVEYS

To better understand and serve our member base, we surveyed our members and their needs. We are very grateful for all participation and look forward to continue tailoring our offerings to continue to advance for more.

SURVEYS CONDUCTED IN 2020:

In response to members’ needs, AANA launched a partnership with the Hawkins Foundation and Sharecare for a QCDR product which included special pricing for AANA members.

In an effort to keep our finger on the pulse of our members, a Membership Engagement Dashboard was developed.

The AANA Survey Portal was launched for member-conducted surveys to assist members with gaining responses and advancing their research.

Throughout the crisis, AANA Leadership and Staff were open to ideas and actively listened. The result hit the mark by creating content that was relevant. AANA was able to respond with useful and helpful information, and did an effective job at communicating that through various outlets. And, all the regular and usual activities of our robust and ever-growing organization still took place, albeit not in person.

AANA ADVOCACY IN ACTIONAANA is driven by a mission to not only advance the art and science of arthroscopy through education and skills assessment but also maintain an influential presence in advocacy. It is through the AANA Advocacy Committee’s constant involvement and action that the organization remains a leader by advocating for members and their patients.

AANA 2020 ADVOCACY WINS:• Fought to maintain value of arthroscopic

shoulder debridement codes (29823, 29822), which the ROC resurveyed and revalued in 2020.

• Updated AAOS GSD definition of removal of loose body to more accurately capture interoperative work by surgeons.

• Participated in AAOS update of OAK CPG to ensure arthroscopic meniscectomy is recognized as an appropriate option in select patient populations.

• Responded with AAOS to steak holders on government policy issues, including surprise billing, physician-owned hospitals, Evaluation & Management (E&M) changes and COVID-19 relief.

• Educated members during the COVID-19 pandemic on practice management, regulatory and compliance issues.

• Educated members through publications in AAOS Now on current coding and reimbursement issues.

WEB STATSAs would be expected, COVID-19 had an impact on web traffic. Though the number of web sessions went down in 2020, the number of users increased, and the number of pages these users visited increased.

Individuals who visited the website in 2020 browsed more webpages and spent more time on the website by a marginal amount compared to 2019. The international presence decreased in 2020, but this was impacted by the absence of international events and the annual meeting. Further, the limited number of in-person courses impacted the spikes we see during course weekends. The important factors we see is that the AANA web traffic footprint is growing from year-to-year and people are interacting with the AANA website at a deeper level, exploring it more.

PODCASTSExperience Arthroscopy in a new way. Podcasts present a detailed discussion of an article published in Arthroscopy via author interviews conducted by AANA members. These engaging podcasts are designed to expand the listener’s understanding through discussion of unpublished results; examination of interesting or unexpected findings; or exploration of related content.

ARTHROSCOPY TECHNIQUESArthroscopy Techniques, a companion to Arthroscopy, is an online-only, video-based journal designed to introduce peer-reviewed surgical modifications and techniques in an interactive format. We evaluate submissions of Technical Notes – including precise text, clear figures and detailed videos – in an average of 30 days or less.

ARTHROSCOPY – THE JOURNAL OF ARTHROSCOPIC AND RELATED SURGERY

Nowhere is minimally invasive surgery explained better than in Arthroscopy, the leading peer-reviewed journal in the field. Every issue enables you to put into perspective the usefulness of the various emerging arthroscopic techniques. The advantages and disadvantages of these methods – along with their applications in various situations – are discussed in relation to their efficiency, efficacy and cost-benefit. This year we saw huge growth and are excited to continue expanding the journal’s reach.
