Safety Measures
AAPA’s and SHM’s utmost concern is the health and safety of our attendees and their patients, as well as our exhibitors, speakers, and staff. We are committed to making this in-person meeting as safe as possible. Here are the ways we are working to make Boot Camp 2022 a safe environment for everyone.
Please note that these safety measures are subject to change based on guidance from the CDC and local authorities at the time of the conference.
Proof of COVID-19 Vaccination Required
AAPA is requiring proof of COVID-19 vaccination, or a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours of the start of the meeting, to attend the 2022 Adult Hospital Medicine Boot Camp in Austin.
“Fully vaccinated” is defined as a person who has received one of the vaccines authorized for emergency use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or by the World Health Organization, and is:
- 2 weeks after vaccination with the second dose in a 2-dose series, such as the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, or
- 2 weeks after vaccination with a single-dose vaccine, such as the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
For those who are not vaccinated and still wish to attend in person, proof of a negative RT-PCR test or Rapid Antigen test* within 72 hours of conference check-in is required. Please email proof of negative test to AAPA staff at [email protected].
*At-home, self-administered rapid antigen tests will not be accepted. Only rapid antigen test results provided by a third party will be accepted.
- There will be a safer registration check-in experience, including the following:
- Contactless check-in: Attendees will be able to take their own badges, bags, and materials from the on-site registration desk.
- Hand sanitizer will be available for attendees to use in meeting spaces and foyer.
- Enhanced level of cleaning. Read about Hyatt’s Global Care & Cleanliness Commitment.
- Masks are optional for attendees at the conference. AAPA will not be providing masks, and if attendees choose to wear one, they will need to bring their own.
- If you have any symptoms of COVID-19, including fever, chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea, please stay home and seek medical advice.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom, before eating, and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
- Be sure to practice everyday preventive actions.
How do I show proof of COVID-19 vaccination?
All attendees, staff, vendors, exhibitors and faculty must upload a photo or copy of their vaccination card to this secure site.
PDF, JPEG and PNG are all acceptable file formats.
How do I show proof of a negative COVID-19 test?
Please email your proof of negative RT-PCR or Rapid Antigen test* to AAPA staff at [email protected]. The test must have been administered within 72 hours of conference check-in.
*At-home, self-administered rapid antigen tests will not be accepted. Only rapid antigen test results provided by a third party will be accepted.
Do I have to share personal health information on my card when I upload it?
When entering your proof of vaccination, your name and COVID-19 vaccine information must be visible. If you would prefer to cover your date of birth or other personal health information on the card, you are permitted to do so.
AAPA will keep this information stored in a secure website until the conference ends, at which time the information will be deleted from the system. AAPA will notify individuals by email on the date the information is deleted from the system. AAPA will not use the uploaded information for any purpose other than verification of vaccination status for attendance at the in-person Adult Hospital Medicine Boot Camp.
What if I do not upload my vaccine card prior to the conference date?
You will not be able to attend the in-person conference. A conference badge will not be issued to anyone who has not completed the proof of vaccination. Without a conference badge, you will not be allowed in, and we will transfer your registration to the virtual option.
Cancellation Policies
At the present time, we plan to proceed with both in-person and virtual experience options for 2022 Adult Hospital Medicine Boot Camp.
Please be assured that our utmost concern is the health and safety of our attendees and their patients, as well as exhibitors and staff. AAPA is closely monitoring the situation with COVID-19.

“The conference was amazing, and the classes were packed with info. Speakers were fabulous. I am looking forward to the next one!”
“I would highly recommend this conference to a friend or colleague. As a hospital medicine [provider], I think this course would be extremely beneficial to providers just starting their careers. The topics and speakers were great.”
“Highly recommend! The speakers are experts in their field and the information is evidence-based and current.”
“This course is a great review of common hospital medicine diagnoses and management strategies. An excellent review of general medicine for those who work in surgical practices and may not get a lot of exposure to, or have other providers that manage, typical hospital problems.”
“Excellent topics and faculty. Hospital-based topics that are relevant to practice. This is a must-go-to conference if you practice hospital-based medicine! Highly recommend!”
“It was extremely organized, and all lectures/activities started right on time. The lectures were all very useful and provided a lot of information that will affect/change the way I practice in a positive manner. Overall, well worth the money! I am already looking forward to going next year again.”
“Excellent conference, especially for those who are either transitioning into hospital medicine or new to practice. It was a great event, really enjoyed the speakers, the venue, the food, all of it was lovely! Highly recommend.”
“Plethora of knowledge by truly inspiring providers.”
