Register Now for Next Weekends' Salt Lake City PAINWeekEnd: Pain Management CME for the Main Street Practitioner
Montclair, NJ (PRWEB) October 02, 2015 -- Convening Saturday, October 10, PAINWeekEnd Salt Lake City is constructed to meet the needs of busy clinicians and allied healthcare practitioners, delivering a full day of relevant, practical instruction in the management of chronic pain, together with the opportunity for stimulating interaction and exchange with faculty and fellow attendees. The conference will take place at the Salt Lake Marriott Downtown at City Creek, 75 South West Temple.
PAINWeekEnd Regional Conferences offer an educational solution to the challenge facing healthcare providers in hospital and office-based practice settings nationwide: how to meet the growing demand for chronic pain care in an increasingly stringent regulatory environment for prescribers.
Utah requires all physicians to obtain 40 hours of CME every 2 years. By attending PAINWeekEnd Salt Lake City, participants can receive 7.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ as they enhance their skills in medication risk evaluation and mitigation, in pain assessment and diagnosis, and in the delivery of individualized multimodal treatment.
Now in their 5th year, PAINWeekEnd Regional Conferences are produced by PAINWeek®— the leading pain education resource for frontline practitioners. Chronic pain is a major public health issue and a concern that primary care clinicians face every day as they absorb the burden of care for an aging population. Summing up the challenge, senior PAINWeek faculty member Kevin L. Zacharoff, MD, FACIP, FACPE, FAAP, remarked, “Chronic pain patients are on the doorstep of every healthcare provider on Main Street USA!”
Course topics: medical marijuana in the treatment of central nervous systems; 2015 practice changes and patient education: overview of critical pain management practice issues; small fiber neuropathies; risk assessment: how to do it, how to use it; creating a treatment plan for higher risk patients: a case based approach; and get your specimens in order: the impact of changes to the clinical laboratory fee schedule and payor policies on medical record documentation.
The PAINWeekEnd curriculum will be presented by a multidisciplinary faculty and is intended for frontline clinicians including physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and pharmacists. In addition, there will be commercially supported activities addressing a range of product, disease state, and medical information topics.
The online registration fee for PAINWeekEnd Conferences is $99.
