JOIN PEDIATRIC PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS FOR A WEBINAR ON CODING WITH 2021 GUIDELINES 

2021 has brought in sweeping changes for coding.  Coding by time when treating mental health patients in the primary care setting is not necessarily the best option any longer!  Clinicians need to understand the new coding rules and how to apply them in order to be properly paid for their care and services.  Join us for a one-hour webinar given by a fellow primary care clinician explaining the new rules in plain language, including real case examples and a coding calculator.

Strengthening Community and Health Care Provider Resiliency to Adverse Childhood Experiences

Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic events in childhood that can have negative, lasting
effects on health and well-being that can be passed on to future generations.  These experiences range from physical,
emotional or sexual abuse to those concerning household instability, such as parental divorce, incarceration, substance abuse or mental illness, among others.  Panelists will discuss a guide for implementing best practices when addressing ACEs; tools to incorporate screening for ACEs, resilience and social determinants of health into primary care practice; approaches for assisting families; causes of staff burnout; and strategies for building a more resilient workforce.

Hosts:

• Howard A. Zucker, MD, JD – Commissioner, New York State Department of Health
• John M. Carrigg – President & CEO, UHS & UHS Hospitals

Presenters:
