March 6, 2015 Meeting Conference
Ethics/Risk Management
Professional Practice Gaps:
Using feedback from NEOS members and discussion by the Program Committee, current concepts in approaches to minimizing medical errors, as well as medical and legal approaches to managing them when they occur, wereidentified as significant professional practice gaps that merit a dedicated program.
Program Objectives:
The content and format of this educational activity has been specifically designed to fill the identified practice gaps in our membership's current and potential scope of professional activities in a way that focuses on education, while managing commercial support and maintaining independence from promotional activities and commercial proprietary interests. This program seeks to:
1) Increase the competence of the audience in the areas of patient safety, informed consent, patient communication about adverse outcomes, and navigating the complexities of malpractice litigation should it arise.
2) Improve the performance of the audience in patient communication concerning the above, and other aspects of effective risk management.
3) Improve outcomes in the areas of patient safety, and patient satisfaction through better physician - patient communication.
