Overview

Mission

The organization's mission is to educate clinicians about pain and its management through an integrative interdisciplinary approach

What it reported doing in 2019

Annual Meeting: Each year, the academy holds an annual meeting, which is attended by several hundred clinicians. The annual meeting offers state-of-the art presentations by leaders in the field of pain management that address pain conditions, treatment options, and ethical and legal issues related to the management of pain. The meeting provides an opportunity for clinicians to earn continuing education credits. In addition, attendees learn about new products and services offered by exhibitors.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 97% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
