MLMIC and HANYS Present “Talk Amongst Yourselves: Effective Coordination of Care”

Addressing a patient’s needs can be a complex endeavor. Finding the right providers, performing appropriate tests, evaluating the results to make a diagnosis and developing the best care plan requires effective coordination across the care continuum. Failure at any step can lead to patient harm and, potentially, a malpractice claim.

They will also offer strategies to improve care coordination and reduce the risk of professional liability claims against providers.

  • Understand the importance of effective communication in care coordination and discharge planning.
