PROGRAM PURPOSE

Over the past fifteen years there has been an international flurry of new knowledge generated from quality clinical trials and pharmaceutical research and development in all aspects of women’s health. For many healthcare providers, the realization of the need to stay closely informed came abruptly with concerns over our management of the symptomatic menopausal woman.

Even those of us in academia responsible for disseminating this new evidence to future physicians and specialists found it difficult to keep pace with the recent discoveries leading to better comprehension in the pathophysiology of certain female disorders. This would lead, for example, to new guidelines that were generated in cervical cancer screening and HPV-associated cancer prevention.

Topics:
  1. PCOS
    • Risk modification may influence long term management so it is necessary to diagnose and treat. Further, treatment options are dependent on patient desired outcome and should be considered.
  2. Cystic Fibrosis
    • New long term treatment modalities and medications can be considered and may be newer options for consideration of primary care management.
  3. Abnormal Skin Lesions
    • Recognition of abnormal skin lesions remains and management remains a key perspective of primary care management. Specific to melanoma, treatment has transitioned and guidelines related to cancer screening, surveillance, and treatment have additional considerations.
  4. Depression
    • Depression and behavioral integration into patient centered medical home consideration and federally qualified health centers continue to be a priority.
    • Recognition of mental illness as a Comorbidity of chronic health care conditions along with screening, diagnosis,and treatment are cornerstones of management.
  5. Medical, ethical, and end of life care decisions
    • Medical, ethical and end-of-life care decisions impact the care of patients and often have providers questioning personal beliefs while Integrating medical knowledge and evidence based practice, keeping an eye on cost effective care.
    • Integration of case studies will be utilized to demonstrate application of medical knowledge base with practical ideas.
  6. Amenorrhea
    • Describe the most common etiologies of primary amenorrhea and secondary amenorrhea.
    • Be able to perform an appropriate diagnostic approach to the patient presenting with amenorrhea.
    • Minimize long term risk factors associated with abnormal or irregular menstrual cycles.
  7. Dysmenorrhea
    • Know the differences between primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea .
    • Discuss the signs, symptoms, and differential diagnosis for dysmenorrhea.
  8. THE FUTURE OF CERVICAL CANCER: The Legacy of Screening and the Prophecy Of Eradication
    • The healthcare provider will recognize the development of modern day cervical cancer screening, the role of high risk HPV in male and female lower genital tract, oropharyngeal, anal carcinogenesis, and the importance of promoting HPV vaccination
  9. FLASH!!! To Treat or Not To Treat with Estrogen
    • The clinician will address the concerns of perimenopausal women including their complaints of mood disturbance, vasomotor symptoms, insomnia, diminished sexual desire, vaginal atrophy. He/She will offer patients a variety of behavioral, hormonal, nonhormonal therapeutic modalities during this perimenopausal window
  10. CONTEMPORARY UNDERSTANDING OF THE ORIGIN OF OVARIAN CANCER, RISK REDUCTION, AND THE EVALUATION OF THE ADNEXAL MASS
    • The provider will describe the new model of ovarian carcinogenesis and the obstacles encountered in trying to develop ovarian cancer screening.
    • The participant will assess the malignant potential of a palpable mass in a woman using present day imaging and ovarian tumor markers and direct appropriate conservative, medical, or surgical intervention.
  11. THE PCOS LOOK-ALIKES
    • Participants will generate a differential diagnosis for females of various reproductive ages presenting with signs of hyperandrogenism and order appropriate laboratory, radiologic imaging and timely referral to an endocrinologist, gynecologic oncologist, or general surgeon.
  12. PUTTING OUT “THE BURNING VULVA”
    • The participant will give examples of the variety of infectious, inflammatory, neoplastic, and neurologic disorders that cause vulvar burning/ pruritus, and make timely decisions on proper treatment and need for biopsy.
  13. THAT PESKY VAGINAL DISCHARGE
    • The participant will draw from historical and physical exam findings, culture and new quantitative PCR based assays to properly detect and treat a variety of recurrent infectious and non-infectious causes of vaginal irritative symptoms.
  14. ADDRESSING FEMALE DIMINISHED LIBIDO WITHOUT FEAR
    • The attendee will openly discuss problems of a sexual nature with his/her patients, define the type of sexual dysfunction and offer behavioral, pharmacologic therapy or referral to sex therapist

PORTS OF CALL

Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii

Combine the languid allure of the tropics with big-city sophistication, then add the spirit of aloha, and you've got Honolulu. This Pacific crossroads offers a profound day of discovery, perfectly balancing historical reflection with natural splendor. A visit to Pearl Harbor is an essential, moving experience, offering a solemn look into a pivotal moment in world history at the USS Arizona Memorial and the Battleship Missouri.

For a change of pace and perspective, consider the rewarding hike up Diamond Head (Lēʻahi). The panoramic views of the coastline and the turquoise ocean from the summit are an unforgettable reward for your efforts. Of course, no visit is complete without experiencing fabled Waikiki Beach. Beyond the sunbathers, you can try a beginner's surf lesson on its gentle waves or simply stroll along the shore as pink sunsets begin to cast their magical glow. For a deeper dive into Hawaiian heritage, explore the meticulously restored Iolani Palace, the only official royal residence in the United States, which offers a unique glimpse into the island's sovereign past. Between these iconic sites, immerse yourself in the local culture by savoring a fresh poke bowl or a classic plate lunch from a neighborhood eatery. In Honolulu, the air, blanketed in the heady fragrance of gardenias and jasmine, invites you to relax, reflect, and recharge.

Kahului, Maui, Hawaii

Kahului serves as the practical gateway to the legendary landscapes of Maui. While the port itself is industrial, it is the starting point for some of Hawaii's most profound natural experiences. Your day here is a matter of choosing a direction, as the island’s diverse regions offer distinctly different adventures.

For a truly immersive, full-day commitment, two iconic journeys beckon. The Road to Hana is a winding, 64-mile drive through a lush rainforest, past cascading waterfalls and dramatic coastal cliffs—an experience more about the journey than the destination. Alternatively, ascend to the summit of Haleakalā, the "House of the Sun." This dormant volcano offers an otherworldly, cloud-level perspective of a vast crater, a stark and beautiful landscape unlike any other. Due to their length and complexity, pre-arranged tours are the most efficient way to experience these wonders from a cruise ship.

For a less demanding but equally rewarding day, explore the Iao Valley State Monument, a sacred and verdant valley featuring the iconic Kīpuka Puaulu (Iao Needle). Nearby, the bohemian surf town of Paia offers unique shops and a relaxed vibe, while further upcountry, Makawao provides a glimpse into Maui's paniolo (cowboy) heritage with its charming boutiques and galleries. The North Shore's Ho'okipa Beach is a fantastic spot to watch world-class windsurfers and spot green sea turtles resting on the sand.

Please be mindful that West Maui, including the historic town of Lahaina, is in a long-term recovery phase following the 2023 wildfires. Visitors are encouraged to explore the many other beautiful and welcoming areas of the island.

Hilo, Hawaii Island

Hilo offers a glimpse into the untamed, elemental side of Hawaii, a world away from manicured resorts. As the island's lush, rain-fed capital, it serves as the primary gateway to the geological marvel of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. A visit here is the undisputed main event, but requires commitment: it's a 45- to 60-minute drive each way. Once there, you can walk through the otherworldly Thurston Lava Tube, witness steam billowing from volcanic vents, and gaze into the immense Kīlauea caldera. It is essential to set expectations: visible lava flows are rare and unpredictable, but the raw power of the landscape is always palpable. For those seeking a less time-intensive day, Hilo’s immediate surroundings are rich with natural beauty. Just minutes from the port, Rainbow Falls offers a lovely and accessible viewpoint. For a more dramatic experience, a short drive north leads to ʻAkaka Falls State Park, where a towering waterfall plunges into a gorge. The region is also home to world-class botanical gardens, such as the Hawaii Tropical Bioreserve & Garden, which showcases the area's incredible biodiversity. Downtown Hilo itself is not a polished tourist hub but an authentic, historic town with a celebrated farmers market and the serene Liliʻuokalani Gardens. A day in Hilo is best spent choosing one key adventure: the epic journey to the volcano or a deeper exploration of the waterfalls and gardens closer to port.

Kona, Hawaii Island

Kona offers a genuine taste of old Hawaii, distinct from the state's more modern resort centers. As a tender port, you arrive directly into the heart of the walkable seaside town of Kailua-Kona. While the town itself has its charms, including the historic Huliheʻe Palace and Mokuʻaikaua Church, Kona’s most profound experiences lie along its sun-drenched coast and in the cool uplands.

The region is, of course, synonymous with coffee. A short drive or tour into the hills of Holualoa reveals the Kona Coffee Belt, where numerous small, family-run farms welcome visitors. Here, you can walk through the coffee groves, learn about the bean-to-cup process, and sample some of the world's most prized coffee at its source. This is an authentic agricultural and culinary experience.

For a deep dive into Hawaiian culture, nothing compares to Puʻuhonua o Hōnaunau National Historical Park, about a 45-minute drive south. This beautifully restored royal compound and sacred place of refuge offers a powerful, tangible connection to the island’s past. It is a quiet, spiritual place that rewards thoughtful exploration.

Water activities are centered around Kealakekua Bay, a protected marine life conservation district with exceptional snorkeling and diving. The bay is also the historic site where Captain James Cook was killed. Accessing the best snorkeling spots typically requires a boat tour, which is well worth the effort for the clarity of the water and abundance of marine life. Kona provides a compelling blend of significant history, world-class agriculture, and natural beauty, best accessed with a pre-arranged tour or rental car.

Nawiliwili, Kauai, Hawaii

Kauai is Hawaii’s oldest and most dramatic island, a landscape defined by staggering natural beauty rather than sprawling resorts. The port at Nawiliwili is the gateway to this 'Garden Isle,' though its greatest treasures require a journey inland or along its famed coastline.

Two experiences define Kauai's epic scale. The first is Waimea Canyon, a massive, 14-mile-long chasm often called the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific.' Its deep, crimson-rock gorges striated with lush green foliage create a spectacle of color and depth that is truly breathtaking from its numerous roadside lookouts. The second is the legendary Na Pali Coast, a sacred and inaccessible stretch of coastline where sheer, emerald-green cliffs, fluted by time and waterfalls, drop thousands of feet to the ocean. As it is unreachable by car, the only ways to witness its majesty are via a dramatic helicopter flight or a rugged boat tour along its base.

For those seeking more accessible beauty, the Wailua River Valley offers gentle kayaking excursions to the Fern Grotto and easy access to the impressive Wailua and Opaekaa Falls. On the island's sunnier south side, Poipu Beach provides a classic Hawaiian beach day, with golden sands, calm waters for snorkeling, and frequent sightings of resting green sea turtles.

A pre-booked rental car or a well-chosen tour is essential. The island’s wonders are spread out, and planning ahead is the key to experiencing the profound beauty of Kauai.

What Can Travel Insurance Help Protect?

Allianz Travel Insurance plans can protect you before and during your trip—keeping you, your loved ones, and your travel budget safer. Benefits vary by plan, and these are brief descriptions. Please read your plan documents for details.

TRIP CANCELLATION

Reimburses your prepaid, non-refundable travel expenses if you need to cancel your trip due to a covered reason, such as you, a family member, or traveling companion experiencing a covered illness or injury. Examples include:

  • A doctor says you or a traveling companion is too sick to fly
  • Your parent or child requires hospitalization
  • You need to attend the birth of a family member’s child
  • You have a traffic accident (not breakdown) on the way to the airport
  • A storm shuts down your airport for 24 hours or more

TRIP INTERRUPTION

Reimburses your unused, non-refundable travel expenses and increased transportation costs during your trip if you have to return home early due to a covered reason, for instance when a family member has a qualifying medical emergency and needs your care. Examples include:

  • You have a covered illness or injury and a doctor says you must return home
  • A family member has a qualifying injury and needs your care
  • A covered emergency, like a fire or flood, makes your home uninhabitable

TRAVEL DELAY

If you have a covered delay while traveling, travel insurance can reimburse you for meals, accommodations, and transportation expenses when your trip is delayed for a minimum number of consecutive hours for a covered reason. Minimum number of hours varies by plan.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL AND DENTAL CARE

Reimburses your expenses related to covered medical and dental emergencies* that might occur on your trip. This benefit can be especially helpful if you have a covered emergency outside the United States, as most health insurance policies won’t cover you outside the country. Examples include:

  • You slip and break your ankle while sightseeing
  • You get food poisoning while sampling the local cuisine
  • You lose a filling and need immediate dental treatment*

*A sublimit and maximum apply for this benefit. Check your plan documents for details.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION

Arranges and pays for medically necessary transportation following a covered injury or illness to the nearest appropriate medical facility to receive care and get you home after treatment.

BAGGAGE LOSS, DAMAGE, or THEFT

Reimburses the replacement of your lost, damaged, or stolen luggage and personal items while traveling.

BAGGAGE DELAY

Reimburses essential items purchased during your trip if your baggage is delayed for a minimum number of hours (varies by plan).

CHANGE FEE

Reimburses fees if you need to change your flight itinerary due to a covered reason.

24-HOUR ASSISTANCE

Provides around-the-clock support during your trip. Allianz Global Assistance’s staff of multilingual problem solvers can help you with medical, legal, and travel-related emergencies whenever they happen. Medical assistance may include, but is not limited to:

  • Medical triage with referrals to local prescreened medical providers
  • Ongoing medical monitoring
  • Payment guarantee

Additional services for travel-related emergencies can help with:

  • Missed connecting flights
