This online class, using the latest neuroscience research, provides attendees with an understanding of how pain works and showcases current front-office and medical interactions that can harm patients, sometimes unknowingly. On the flip side, the presentation features various front-office strategies that can help patients along their recovery path, starting with the first phone call. Medical care starts and ends in the front-office and for too long, this important factor has been overlooked.

Course Objectives/Outcomes

Come prepared to think and practice like never before!
