Teleconferences about Massage Therapy

Consents and authorizations are obtained daily by health care organizations and practitioners throughout the country. However, many health care providers do not understand the complex intersections of regulatory and common law requirements for obtaining and documenting consent. Failure to properly obtain and document consent can result in regulatory sanctions as well as liability for health care providers. This teleconference will help you understand when a consent or authorization is required, who can legally provide a valid consent, and how consent should be documented. It will provide you with a practical understanding of issues related to informed consent and valid authorizations as well as best practices to implement in your own organization.
