FLCA Cardiology Updates - Clifton Springs, Canandaigua, Penn Yan, Seneca Falls
October 2010 - September 2011 Series
PCPs in these regional areas have repeatedly asked for CME opportunities closer to home. And as we improve our care of their patients thorugh the use of technology and medications, develop new testing modalities, or modify criteria for use of existing technology and medications, we rely on them to manage the patients between visits. They are uncomfortable doing so without background understanding and guidelines. Without this new knowledge, patients suffer unnecessary hospitalizations or inappropriate care.
