| Topic: | Work Disability Prevention Rounds: "Patient Advocate or Patsy?" | |
| Explore what patient advocacy really means in the context of the stay-at-work, return-to-work and start-back-to-work process. How can the doctor respond to patient requests for excessive time off, disability certification, benefits? How about pressure from employers, insurers? What can you do when you feel they are trying to use you. Attendees will walk away with practical methods for dealing effectively with pressure from patients, employers, and insurers -- and good ways to say it! | ||
