Just what does the average AADEP doc expect from the 22nd Annual Scientific Session? Everyday I try to read 1,000 minds, hear what disability evaluating physicians are saying they need, and listening to the myriad external stakeholders who all have needs of their own.
AADEP Officers and Directors have the same challenges whether in their own environs or when they travel on AADEP business. What is the pressing need for those who dispense medical advice to the injured worker, render treatment or negotiate with other providers within the “invisible injury” (To coin a phrase from Doctor David Randolph) industry.
After all this information gathering, someone or a group of leaders must synthesize information, design the relevant objectives, and forecast your educational outcomes. Perhaps we can do better. Why don’t you tell us?
Just what do YOU expect in coming to the annual meeting—besides education in the sunshine in the middle of a hard Midwestern winter? While we cannot get much better than the line-up of speakers our Annual Meeting Chairs have arranged, we can always make some adjustments; AADEP faculty is schooled to address many levels of need. You know a CME audience is never equally experienced. If you like the balance we have achieved, tell us. If you think we should shift to the right or the left and you identify those poles, tell us how.
How will your performance improve when you return to your office? What is your expectation for change in your practice pattern?
As you know, blogs are meant to be interactive—the more the better. Now it is your turn. You will hear from our leaders, both current and past, our experienced Fellows, and those who are joining us for the first time.
Watch this site! It is under construction.
