The Conference was founded in 1982 by the Chinese Hospital Medical Staff in San Francisco. The Conference brought together a number of Chinese American and Chinese Canadian medical societies, as well as many North American and international physicians interested in health problems of the Chinese in North America. A steering committee was formed to oversee the continued development of conferences on a biennial basis. In 1994, the Federation of Chinese American and Chinese Canadian Medical Societies (FCMS) was founded. Subsequently, the Conference has been the activity of FCMS.
The 17th Biennial Conference will be held in Los Angeles in 2014!!!
