Support your trainees through the completion of their fellowship and help them prepare for board exams by giving them access to valuable ASH benefits. Enroll current and incoming fellows in the ASH Fundamentals for Hematology Fellows (FHF) program at the cost of $175 per fellow.

Program Benefits

ASH must receive full payment for enrollment before fellows can receive FHF benefits. Please allow sufficient time for processing to ensure all memberships are active when ASH annual meeting registration opens in mid-July.

Each fellow enrolled in FHF receives:

• ASH Associate membership¹, which includes subscriptions to ASH’s various publications, including Blood, The Hematologist, and Hematology, the ASH Education Program. Associate members are also eligible to apply for ASH awards and have access to other member-only services, such as Consult a Colleague. View additional member benefits.
• One complimentary ASH meeting registration² (or access to recorded sessions for one ASH meeting) per academic year.
• Online access to the ASH Self-Assessment Program (ASH-SAP), which includes nearly 300 case-based multiple-choice questions grouped into six themed tests. tests combine to offer up to 75 continuing medical education (CME) and American Board of Internal Medicine Maintenance of Certification (MOC) points.
• Discounted price for the ASH Hematology In-Service Exam.
• New: Online access to the Hematology Review Series, a webinar based learning tool designed for fellows preparing to take the internal medicine hematology certification exam or those desiring a comprehensive update of hematology standards of care.

Additionally, program directors³ of fellows enrolled in FHF receive complimentary registration for the ASH annual meeting and digital access to the ASH-SAP, including the CME/MOC tests and the Hematology Review Series.

¹Fellows enrolled in FHF are not required to apply for Associate membership separately. ASH will send enrolled fellows a welcome email as soon as their institution’s FHF enrollment is complete.
²Complimentary registrations are non-transferable and include the core meeting registration only. Eligible meetings include the ASH annual meeting, ASH Meeting on Hematologic Malignancies, and Highlights of ASH in North America.
³If the program director is an oncologist who does not wish to receive the benefits, he or she may transfer all benefits to a key clinical faculty member actively involved in the hematology education of the fellows; this designation should be made when the program registers for the FHF program.

Cost Per Fellow

At $175 per fellow, FHF offers savings of nearly $600 when compared to the cost of paying for Associate membership and purchasing similar products separately using the Associate member discount (see table below).

Eligibility and Enrollment

Each April, ASH sends instructions to program* directors and coordinators on how to enroll current (but not graduating that year) and incoming fellows in FHF. Programs are welcome to enroll at any point; however, ASH does not prorate the cost of FHF enrollment.

Access to FHF benefits begins July 1 and ends June 30 of the following year. Fellows completing the training program in June will receive FHF benefits through December of their graduating year. For fellows who are already ASH members outside of the FHF program, a refund for the six-month balance of their previously-paid membership dues will be issued and sent to the original payer.

Fellowship programs must enroll 100 percent of their fellows in FHF in order to receive the bundle benefits. Full payment must be received before FHF enrollment and ASH Associate membership are considered active.

Registration fees cannot be adjusted for programs that enroll in FHF after fellows have registered for the ASH annual meeting, so please allow sufficient time for processing to ensure all memberships are active when ASH annual meeting registration opens in mid-July.

Programs applying for the Hematology Focused Fellowship Training Program (HFFTP) are required to participate in FHF. 100 percent of fellows, including the ASH funded HFFTP fellow should be enrolled.
