2013 is the 14th year the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons has produced a multimedia public service campaign featuring television, radio, print and airport ads.
Each ad features an important musculoskeletal health message for the American public and all are available in this section of the newsroom. Click print, radio or television on the left-hand navigation and download any of our ads for free.
The print ads are produced as four-color posters, desktop easel-back signs and postcards that are available for just the cost of shipping upon request to state and specialty societies, and for use by Academy members in their practices or in a variety of public relations applications.
- These ads are sent to more than 9,000 print, television and radio outlets nationwide, and also are distributed to airports and outdoor advertising companies.
- Over the past 13 years, the PSA program has offered the AAOS an opportunity to develop unique partnerships with dozens of other medical associations as well as orthopaedic specialty societies.
- The Academy’s PSA Campaign has won more than 100 awards since 2000.
