DescMEMBERSHIP: This was another record year for AAN membership recruitment and retention. Neurologists and neuroscience professionals from around the world now make up more than 36,000 AAN members, and the Academy can claim to be home to nearly 93% percent of US neurologists. Successful year-over-year recruitment and retention of members is attributed to the AAN's ongoing commitment to grow the available resources for neurologists as well as the various members of a neurology care team no matter their practice setting, career stage, or geographic location. The AAN remains dedicated to serving the needs of our members around the globe. Members outside of the United States make up 21 percent of total membership and represent 141 countries. The AAN improved access to membership benefits in low and low-middle income countries in 2019.Neurologists prize their memberships with the AAN and the many valuable benefits of being associated with the organization, including lifelong education opportunities through the AAN Institute's Annual Meeting, Fall Conference, Sports Concussion Conference, a new Advanced Practice Providers Conference, a highly regarded portfolio of scientific journals and publications such as Neurology(R) and Continuum(R), and many multimedia programs and tools designed to help them meet their regulatory requirements, overcome challenges in practice management, and stay at the top of their skills. Many of these tools and resources are benefits of membership. The AAN applied 83 cents of every dollar to member benefits. The Advanced Practice Provider membership category saw continued record growth and interest, with more than 1,400 members in 2019. The category has grown significantly in recent years; in 2014, there were just 228 advanced practice provider members. The AAN had another strong year with 274 approved applications for new Fellow of the AAN status in 2019. Fellow status acknowledges exemplary work and achievements in the neurosciences, the clinical practice of neurology or academic administrative neurology, in the AAN, and in the community. Member engagement with the Neurology Career Center remains strong for both applications and job seeker profiles. Trackable applications are estimated to reach 5,830 in 2019, representing a 12-percent decrease over 2018 (when there were 6,670 applications). A smaller decrease was also seen in job seeker profiles. New profiles are projected to reach 845 in 2019, a slight dip from 2018 when there were 880 new job seeker profiles. In 2019, AAN.com saw an 18-percent growth in new visitors. During May 2019, we reached an all-time-high in traffic with 205,175 visitors. Mobile use of AAN.com has risen significantly in the past year to 45 percent, and Online Learning, Conferences, and Guidelines continue to be the most popular areas of the site. In 2019, the website went through several updates focused on improving the findability of content and the relevancy of personalized experiences for our members. The strength of SynapseSM Online Communities continues to grow. Wrapping up 2019, there were a total of 21,181 AAN members belonging to one or more of the 40 Synapse open or private communities. Synapse provides a platform for AAN section members to openly share special interest and subspecialty-related information and resources with colleagues. Recognizing the needs of our members in training, in June 2018, membership moved all student, intern, and junior members to an academic year membership, running July 1 through June 30. This included the launch of a new online system to seamlessly add and renew Junior members' membership, leading to a very successful first year with 83 percent of programs utilizing this new system. Following the inaugural year, the 2019-2020 academic year launched in May, sending notices to 264 programs to renew or join their interns and residents. For the 2019-2020 academic year, we had 214 programs initiate payment through the online system in 2019, compared to 217 programs for the 2018-2019 academic year.Desc

DescPUBLICATIONS: The publication of scientific, scholarly, and practice-related content is a vital part of the AAN's activities, and essential to the careers of our members. The AAN's publications also provide an opportunity to generate revenue that helps keep membership dues low. Founded in 1951, Neurology(R) is the official scientific journal of the AAN, and subscriptions are a benefit of membership. As the leading clinical neurology journal worldwide, Neurology is directed to physicians concerned with diseases and conditions of the brain and nervous system. José G. Merino, MD, MPhil, FAHA, FAAN, was selected to become editor-in-chief in April 2020. Major accomplishments this year include the launch of an infographics program with an infographic in each issue and launch of a special website "Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion." Neurology received 5,362 submissions in 2019; Resident & Fellow submissions increased from 773 in 2018 to 815 in 2019. The journal collaborated with the Center for Biomedical Research Transparency to publish a special Neurology(R) Null Hypothesis issue. Neurology(R) Podcasts moved to a new robust platform and pioneered daily newscasts for voice-activated devices. International editions of the publication include those in Argentina, Japan, and India. The full texts of all papers in Neurology(R) Clinical Practice except those under a year old are now available free in PubMed. The feature 'Practice Current-An Interactive Exchange on Controversial Topics' continues to be popular, garnering responses from more than 100 countries. The journal posts an infographic in each issue and published an interactive infographic featuring Practice Current. A special issue, Spotlight on Headache, was published in June. Neurology(R) Genetics, a free open access journal, continued to publish new papers, which are searchable in PubMed. The journal regularly publishes the abstracts for the Proceedings of the International Stroke Genetics Consortium Workshops. The journal has been accepted for inclusion in Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE) and will receive an impact factor in 2020. Neurology(R) Neuroimmunology and Neuroinflammation, a free open access journal, continued to publish new papers, which are searchable in PubMed. The journal received its first impact factor, 7.353, in June 2019. It was accepted for inclusion in MEDLINE, the National Library of Medicine indexing service, in July. MEDLINE citations are indexed with NLM Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) within a few weeks of publication. Paid member circulation for Continuum(R) grew to 7,980-an increase of 4.4 percent over 2018. The publication's presence on social media grew to 9,131 followers. Continuum received three FOLIO Ozzie Awards in the categories of Cover Design, Overall Design Excellence, and Redesign. The FOLIO Ozzie Awards "recognize excellence in gorgeous design across all sectors of the publishing industry." Neurology Today(R) launched a redesigned website, featuring article comments and easier access to articles based on topics and sections. Website visits increased 8.6 percent over 2018. Neurology Today won a Clarion Award in the category Newspaper Feature Series for a series of six articles on physician burnout. Scientific meeting highlights from the AAN Annual Meeting and eight additional subspecialty meetings were covered by the e-news service At the Meetings. The AAN's patient and caregiver book series, Neurology NowTM Books, was rebranded Brain & Life(R) Books. AANnews(R), the official monthly member magazine of the Academy, is mailed to more than 28,000 US members and is posted online in the "About the AAN" area of AAN.com for international and US members to easily access. While promoting Academy events and resources in 2019, the magazine kept members informed of regulatory changes, federal legislation and advocacy opportunities, election of the new Board of Directors, and success stories of neurology advocates and AAN Leadership Program graduates. The AAN's award-winning patient and caregiver magazine, Brain & Life(R), and its companion website, BrainandLife.org, centralize all AAN patient education content in one location. A Spanish version, Brain & Life(R) en Español, published quarterly in 2019. Brain and Life(R) won an Award of Excellence in the 2019 APEX editorial awards competition in the Feature Writing category for its June/July 2018 cover feature on actor Courtney Vance, "Supporting Role." The magazine also received a FOLIO Eddie Award for the article "The Long Reach of Grief."Desc

DescTOOLS AND TRAINING: The AAN produced six practice management webinars, including a free webinar in December to prepare members for changes coming to E/M and EEG coding and other reimbursement issues in 2020. The AAN held its 17th annual Neurology on the Hill on February 26 in Washington, DC. Representing 48 states, 214 members participated in nearly 300 congressional visits. Advocates focused on FY20 research funding and Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) reauthorization, reforms to step therapy, and the importance of maintaining access to neurologists. More than 3 million social media impressions were generated on Twitter using #NOH19. Neurology off the Hill takes place over the August recess. This year, nearly 40 members participated in local events including clinic tours, district meetings, and fundraisers. Advocates discussed drug pricing challenges in neurology, research funding including the NIH and BRAIN Initiative, PCORI reauthorization, and the Safe Step Act, a bill to establish common-sense exceptions to step therapy in group health plans. The AAN's 17th annual Palatucci Advocacy Leadership Forum provided an intensive weekend of advocacy to a selected cadre of members. On September 24, 33 AAN members visited Capitol Hill as part of the inaugural AAN Legislative Summit. This new event is an additional opportunity for the Academy to influence members of Congress on current issues important to neurology, strengthening relationships that have been built at other advocacy events throughout the year. AAN members discussed the We PAID (Protect American Investment in Drugs) Act of 2019, a bipartisan bill to prohibit pharmaceutical companies from charging unreasonable prices for drugs when companies develop prescription drugs using federally funded research, such as NIH or CDC grants. They also urged their representatives to sign a congressional letter led by Reps. Blumenauer (D-OR), McMorris Rodgers (R-WA), Sewell (D-AL), and Wenstrup (R-OH) expressing concerns over the CMS proposal on reduced values of the new long-term video EEG monitoring codes. The final letter was sent to CMS with 68 signatures-including 18 as a direct result of AAN member congressional visits. The AAN had a strong year advancing its legislative priorities in Washington, DC. Some accomplishments include: In response to the proposed 2020 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, the AAN submitted comments to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The comments strongly opposed proposed payment cuts for long-term EEG monitoring services, supported substantial positive changes to evaluation and management (E/M) coding, and provided feedback on a number of proposals that would significantly impact the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) program. The AAN's 41-page comment letter is one of the longest it has ever sent to CMS and it received coverage in national media outlets. This letter complemented the AAN's direct efforts with CMS, which included a September meeting at CMS headquarters to discuss the proposed rule's impact on neurologists and their patients. On November 1, CMS issued a final rule for the 2020 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. The AAN, along with the National Association of Epilepsy Centers, American Clinical Neurophysiology Society, and American Epilepsy Society, spent several months actively advocating to maintain maximum reimbursement for these critical services. We pursued all means of objecting directly to CMS and to members of Congress, in person and through comment letters, regarding payment reductions to long-term EEG monitoring services. Our advocacy worked: CMS recognized its original proposal devalued the services and increased the rates for several of the professional component (physician work) codes. While pleased that we were able to slightly offset the cuts, we still are disappointed with the overall decreased reimbursement. These payment rates will be finalized for 2020, and the AAN is transitioning from fighting the cuts to ensuring members are educated on the coding changes and understand the financial impact for accurate budgeting. In a major victory for neurology, CMS will not collapse the payment levels for evaluation and management (E/M) visits and will instead implement revised office E/M documentation guidelines in 2021, as recommended by the AMA CPT Editorial Panel. The AAN estimates that the combined impact of the changes will result in an increase of approximately $150 million annually in Medicare payments to neurologists for E/M services starting in 2021, as compared to what was proposed in the 2019 Physician Fee Schedule. The revised guidelines maintain the existing five levels of coding for established patients and reduce the number of levels for new patients to four, by eliminating 99201. The AAN received a national award in recognition of the highly coordinated advocacy efforts that resulted in this significant win to preserve access to neurologic care. The AAN has a robust, year-round, regulatory advocacy program. The AAN's 2019 regulatory advocacy efforts focused on improving cognitive reimbursement, lowering the high cost of neurologic drugs, addressing administrative burdens including step therapy and prior authorization, improving electronic health record interoperability, and protecting access to neurologic care. The AAN met with CMS and other relevant agencies, submitted neurology-specific comment letters, and collaborated with stakeholders across the health care landscape on numerous sign-on letters to ensure that neurologists have a seat at the table throughout the rulemaking process. Additional 2019 accomplishments include FY 2020 appropriations and drug pricing.Desc

DescBrainPAC: Advocating for the profession of neurology and preserving access to care by patients is a core activity of the Academy. The Academy's political action committee, BrainPAC, is an effective tool to advance this mission by enabling access to get our message to lawmakers. It also helps level the playing field with other physician specialties that have PACs and compete for attention. Voluntary contributions by US members and staff are key to a successful PAC.Desc

Members and applicants must demonstrate ethical and professional conduct. Please see www.aan.com for details on each membership class.

Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11bThe CFO performed extensive review of the draft 990 as initially prepared by the Associate Director of Finance. The draft was reviewed by the Academy's exempt organization's tax professional. The form was then presented to the Audit Committee by the CFO and other members of the management team for the Committee's comments. The finalized 990 is brought to the Board of Directors for discussion during a regularly scheduled meeting. At that time, a complete overview of the final 990 form is to be provided by the CFO and General Counsel. The form 990 is filed after this process.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12cThe Academy operates with a conflict of interest policy that covers individuals serving as officers, directors, committee members, teachers, authors, consultants as well as any other capacity with leadership responsibility as an "official" of the organization. Covered individuals are required to complete a relationship disclosure statement annually, or more frequently if changes in personal circumstances occur. The statements are reviewed and actions determined in line with the organization's heirarchy based on the individual's position and with the recommendation of General Counsel. Conflicts are handled on an individual basis.
