Thank you for everyone who attended our Mid-Year Conference!
More than 80 professionals joined us for our Mid-Year Conference to hone their skills through practical applications, case studies and the latest techniques presented in 15 sessions. We also assisted many practitioners who are new to Independent Medical Evaluations.
It was fun to connect through a networking hour- but just a start to prepare us for our IN PERSON Las Vegas Annual meeting coming January 26-28!
Even if you missed the event, you can still get access to all the recorded sessions including the presentation slides. This course is eligible for up to 15 hours of CME Credits.
Save the Date!
Also don’t forget that our Las Vegas Annual Event is coming up in just a few short months! It’s currently scheduled for January 26-28! We’ll publish all the registration details for you soon including the event agenda so stay tuned!.
