This conference has already taken place.
Description
As health care changes, BWC intends to provide awareness and increase the health care professional’s knowledge in areas identified as practice gaps specific to the health care industry and workers’ compensation, including billing and reimbursement and medico-legal terminology, improving the patient experience, and minimizing administrative burdens or delays in patient care. Health care practitioners, especially those practicing Occupational and Environmental Medicine, are instrumental in assisting individuals across the continuum of care, providing opportunities to effectively manage cases to improve outcomes through effective treatment planning, remain at work and return-to-work strategies, and education in preventing injuries. Ultimately, this continuing medical education activity will focus on the delivery of medically appropriate and necessary health care services at the right time and setting, while promoting high-value, safe, quality, cost-effective care in either private or public health care delivery systems, including workers’ compensation, as well as exploring innovative diagnostic tools.
