The AASM is implementing a flexible cancellation policy for Sleep Medicine Trends. All cancellation requests must be submitted in writing to the AASM national office at courses@aasm.org. Registrants who submit a cancellation request by Sunday, Jan. 19, 2026, will receive a full refund of all registration fees.

In the event that a registrant is unable to attend a course due to severe weather forcing airline cancellations or airport closures, the American Academy of Sleep Medicine will apply 50 percent of the individual’s registration fees toward another AASM course (excluding the SLEEP meeting) held within 12 months. Registrants will need to provide documentation from the airport or airline confirming the inability to travel due to severe weather within 30 days following the course.
