ACPE Milestone Program debuts at 2003 Fall Institute in Tucson - Association of Certified Physician Executives News
Expert faculty, timely and thought-provoking topics and a special segment emphasizing personal development define the Milestone Program that debuts at the Fall Institute, November 16-18, at the Westin La Paloma resort in Tucson, Ariz.
Here are some of the hot topics we'll discuss at this groundbreaking program:
Influencing Policy
Although ACPE is apolitical, our members should possess the skills to influence policies that affect their patients and their organizations. Influencing Policy and Policy Makers is a daylong seminar that will contradict almost everything your civics teacher taught you. Noted public policy consultant, Kim Ross, leads a faculty of elected officials and professional lobbyists.
The program will be both substantive and entertaining and covering topics from setting up a meeting with your legislator to the in's and out's of campaign donations and political fundraising. Get your point of view known and your opinions heard by learning to effectively convey the message.
Information Tchnology
An especially exciting segment of the Milestone Program is a discussion of how to Employ the Sweeping Advances in Information Technology. ACPE is reaming up with the IT thought leaders at Cap Gemini Ernst & Young to present a program on benefits and challenges of:
* CPOE
* Medical error reduction and patient safety
* The reality of a paperless medical office
* Bar coding for procedures, lab tests and pharmaceuticals
* Working in an e-health environment
Robert Williams, MD, and Brian Shea, PharmD, will talk about state-of-the-art medical information systems and share the best approaches for working with vendors--both before and after the sale.
Return to Profitability
Nearly every health care provider is struggling with financial viability. Lower reimbursement, higher operating costs and a very competitive environment are sapping the already depleted operating margins. In his keynote address, Brian Goodell, MD, from the Hunter Group, will tell Milestone participants how to Turn the Tide on Falling Operating Margins.
He'll examine why the transition from "business-as-usual" to financial crisis is seldom the result of a singular event or even a recent string of adverse events. Goodell will tell you the warning signs of financial peril and how to reduce the need for crisis management.
Also at the Milestone Program
Other notable sessions include:
Opportunities for Physicians in the Pharmaceutical Industry--led by Hans de Haan, MD, PhD, president of the American Academy of Pharmaceutical Physicians
A Clinical and Business Case for an Integrative Medicine Program--presented by Victoria Maizes, MD, of the Program in Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona
Career Advancement Workshops--taught by industry experts and designed to give you the edge in this competitive job market. You'll learn interviewing skills, resume writing, contract negotiation and the best approaches for working with a headhunter.
