There will be a lot to learn at this year's Empowering Physicians' Conference including a session on conflict resolution and a healthcare workforce issues panel discussion. The conference will take place on September 21 at The Marquette Hotel in downtown Minneapolis.
The conference will include a session on how to resolve conflict with co-workers, patients and their families. Also, experts will discuss the many ways that healthcare is evolving from a business point of view, and what this means for physicians and the practice of medicine. The panel will discuss trends and factors revolving around 1) collective bargaining; 2) private equity investments; and 3) independent/physician-owned practices.
The event, which runs from 1 to 8 p.m., will also feature best-selling author, champion of the patient-physician and relationship, and a prominent voice in medicine, Abraham Verghese, MD, MACP, and an opening session with Minnesota Health Commissioner Brooke Cunningham, MD, PhD.
CME is available.
The Minnesota Medical Association (MMA) is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
