SUMMARY:ATSU Continuing Education Las Vegas 2020
DESCRIPTION:Course Description\nHealth care professionals are confronting the challenge of maintaining and improving competence over the course of lengthy careers in diverse practice specialties. This course was designed to provide attendees with current and relevant updates to your daily management of commonly seen patient health concerns in primary care. This course will present a comprehensive review of new developments in medicine and the day-to-day controversies of office practice. Providers will be able to apply the most current treatment strategies provided in recent clinical guideline updates\, recognize effective interventions\, and employ relevant research in their daily patient encounters. Course Topics \nEducational Objectives\nSummarize recent updates\, clinical studies\, and new guidelines that impact practice in primary care Assess and provide patients with an accurate diagnosis and optimal care for a broad range of diseases and conditions seen in primary care Develop and implement strategies that overcome patient and clinician barriers and improve health outcomes for your patients Recognize when to refer to a specialist to provide optimal patient care Target Audience The target audience includes general practitioners\, family medicine physicians\, and other primary healthcare providers that are interested in refreshing their knowledge and improving their competence on commonly seen conditions. \nEducational Need\nThe need for more information\, knowledge and competence is evident in the busy practicing physician. Often training is out of date and a lack of time is challenging to stay current with advances in the busy physician’s practice. 45% of the total U.S. population live with a chronic condition and improving the quality of their care is a major policy priority. Many patients see a primary care physician for all of their care (Medical Economics from the CDC). Up to date review of clinical guidelines is necessary to present practicing physicians with the level of knowledge and understanding they need to improve patient care. Multimorbidity is particularly important in generalist settings\, such as primary care\, where family practitioners act as the first point of contact for people with a wide range of conditions and frequently manage patients with multiple coexisting conditions. Most patients consulting in family practice have multimorbidity\, and the number of coexisting conditions increases with age. \nProfessional Practice Gap\nA significant gap exists between research recommendations\, scientific evidence\, and clinical practice guidelines\, on the one hand and actual clinical practice\, on the other. With only 55% adherence to evidence-based care\, the significance of disparity disconcerts health care stakeholders. This gap\, the difference between what health professionals know and what they do\, challenges effective and efficient health care by undermining the benefits realized from advances in the science of medicine and the dedication of professionals delivering care. It is well-documented that interventions designed to change practice must be based on an accurate assessment of the needs and causal variables that support and impede targeted health outcomes. Lack of knowledge\, awareness\, professional skill or appraisal skills are well known barriers to optimal care. We base our courses on the concepts of quality improvement in order to achieve and maintain physician competency and performance in the areas where physicians have expressed a professional gap. \nDesired Outcomes\nThis conference is designed to provide primary care practitioners with up-to-date\, evidence-based information on commonly encountered clinician and patient wellness issues\, while suggesting pragmatic approaches to clinical management. After attending the sessions our goal is to enhance the knowledge-base and core competence of attendees.

SUMMARY:23rd Annual Midwest Regional Nursing Educators Conference
DESCRIPTION:In its 23rd year\, the primary goal of this annual event is to strengthen linkages between practice-based and academic nursing educators. Jointly developed by practicing academic faculty and seasoned hospital-based educators\, the content is both evidence-based and practically useful. \n\n\n\nThis 2 ½ day event opens on the evening of November 13 with a preconference workshop. The first full day\, November 14\, primarily targets practice-based educators. However content will be of interest to all nursing educators. The final day\, November 15\, is co-sponsored by the Missouri Association for Colleges of Nursing and offers sessions primarily related to the academic arena. However\, in order to promote meaningful dialogue between practice-based and academic educators\, the general sessions on both Nov. 14 and 15 are designed to attract both target audiences. \n\n\n\nTarget audience: Although Day One primarily targets Practice-Based Educators and Day Two Academic Educators\, this event is intentionally planned for both audiences and includes sessions of common interest each day. For this reason\, about half the participants attend both days. \n\n\n\nPoster Abstract Submission \n\n\n\nPlease read the guidelines to complete the process: 2019 Nursing Educators Poster Abstract Guidelines (opens in new window) \n\n\n\nComplete the Poster Abstract Template (opens in new window) \n\n\n\nComplete the Online Abstract Submission Form (opens in new window) \n\n\n\nRegistration to open at a later date.

Rheumatologists need to be aware of these strategies to provide their patients with the best outcomes. \n\n\n\nFor the two main forms of Large-vessel vasculitis (LVV)\, Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu Arteritis (TAK)\, non-medical management should be considered for disease that is threatening a critical organ or for significant symptoms impacting quality of life. \n\n\n\nToday’s challenging health care environment is affecting the way physicians manage their practices\, interfering with access to care and forcing them to make difficult decisions. Physicians seek to continue to provide quality care while contending with reduced Medicare reimbursement rates\, medical claims\, process errors and inefficiency\, and legislative and regulatory changes. Rheumatologists need to be aware of emerging trends in practice management\, payer reform\, and administrative simplification of impact to the success of their practices and quality of patient care. \n\n\n\nEducational Objectives\n\n\n\nAt the conclusion of the RAI 2019 5th Annual Meeting\, attendees will be able to: \n\n\n\nRecognize federal efforts to improve value in healthcare delivery and payment through programs established under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA)Distinguish and contrast pathways for Rheumatologists to be reimbursed under the Quality Payment Program (i.e.\, the Merit-Based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) and Alternative Payment Models (APMs).Evaluate the potential impact of MACRA on Rheumatology practices and estimate the significance of engagement in current and future value-driven delivery and payment models.Identify opportunities for state and national advocacy\, legislative action and our need for representation at the state national level.Identify the clinical features of ANCA-associated vasculitis.Describe the approach to diagnosis for ANCA-associated vasculitis.List the treatment options for ANCA-associated vasculitis.Describe the diseases that can be associated with large vessel vasculitis.Identify the clinical features associated with giant cell arteritis and Takayasu arteritis.Discuss the treatment approaches to giant cell arteritis and Takayasu arteritis.\n\n\n\nThe Rheumatology Association of Iowa (RAI) 5th Annual Meeting will be held during March 1 – 2\, 2019  at The Hotel at Kirkwood Center\, Cedar Rapids\, Iowa\, United States of America. All sessions will be located in Amphitheater unless otherwise noted.
