Watch Webinar Here ➡️ (REGISTRATION REQUIRED)
I had the pleasure to participate as a speaker for the inaugural ASRA Webinar on recommendations for restarting clinical practice in a post-COVID era. You do have to register to watch the video but it is available at the link above through ASRA’s webpage.
Overview
The global pandemic of COVID-19 has touched our lives in so many ways. It has significant impact on clinical practice. The exact timing for reopening elective surgery is unknown however practitioners and practices need to prepare now for when the first wave of this pandemic is behind us. This webinar unpacks the answers to these key questions.
What are the criteria that will be used to do elective cases as the restriction on elective surgery is lifted?
How will the clinical environment look at that time in the chronic pain practice and ambulatory surgery centers?
What is the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on practitioners and practices and how should they deal with the impact?
Physician and practice readiness will be imperative to enable the resumption of care for patients with chronic and acute pain when restrictions are lifted.
This recording of the webinar with expert faculty will help physicians improve clinical outcomes by being prepared to meet patients' pent-up demand to resume their elective surgeries as the COVID-19 surge wanes.
