Provider symposium transitions to virtual format

The 2020 provider symposium, A Prescription for Success, is transitioning to a virtual format due to current social distancing recommendations. We have notified everyone who registered for the original sessions and closed the registration links that were in the April Record article.

We’ve scheduled virtual sessions throughout the months of June and July, as follows, for physician office staff and coders. Keep in mind that you can register for more than one session.

Sessions for physician office staff responsible for closing gaps in care related to quality measures and creating a positive patient experience:
