For Physicians
How to navigate audits by Medicare and Medicaid
An AMA webinar at noon Eastern time Sept. 19 will explain what every physician needs to know about the growing number of physician audits conducted under the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Register today.
Hosted by a physician advocate and legislative attorney, this hourlong webinar will cover the different types of auditors employed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and will describe best practices for physicians who have received a request from one of them. The webinar also will include a forecast of emerging physician audit issues.
New online CME activity features prescribing for ED
National prescribing information for treating erectile dysfunction (ED) and evidence-based treatment guidelines are discussed in the latest AMA Therapeutic Insights—a free online newsletter featuring a different disease in each issue.
Aimed at enhancing physician knowledge and practice—and ultimately, improving the quality of patient care—AMA PRA Category 1 Credit™ is offered for each newsletter. Previous issues feature chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), tobacco dependence, hypertension, migraine and more.
The AMA is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
