Dr. Michael Baumann, incoming President, will be inaugurated

The ACCP and its nearly 19,000 members exist to help you provide the best patient care possible by delivering superb clinical education in pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine. Let us help you help your patients. How? Get involved! The College offers many doors toward engagement. Just open one!

If you aren’t sure how to start, we have a superb staff and excellent leadership more than willing to answer your questions. Also, our doors are open to nonmember health-care provider engagement. Remember, health-care delivery is a team sport, and we welcome all team members to become involved. As a member of a health-care team and the ACCP team, I welcome your ideas and concerns.

Finally, I end with warm congratulations to our new Fellows to be inducted at CHEST 2013-—a job well done!
