Branson offers laid-back setting for big-time educational sessions.
Technology can be credited for providing half of this year's subject matter for the Arkansas Medical Society Educational Program and Expo, while Pay for Performance and a "Perfect Storm" filled out the roster during the four-pony parade at The Medicine Show on May 7 in Branson, Mo. While earning continuing education credits, physicians in attendance learned more about the benefits of electronic health records and electronic prescribing while also getting an update on the pay-for-performance initiative and how tobacco use and physical inactivity affect public and fiscal health. The programs, which were part of the AMS' 129th Annual Session, were held at Chateau on the Lake atop a picturesque mountain overlooking Table Rock Lake. For those of you who weren't in attendance, here are some of the highlights.
