SUMMARY:EMTALA – General Considerations and Receiving Hospital Obligations
DESCRIPTION:Click HERE to Access OnDemand Recording  \nClick HERE to Access CME Evaluation  \nEMTALA – General Considerations and Receiving Hospital Obligations \nPresented By: Chris Eades\, Attorney – Hall Render Advisory Services \nLearning Objectives: \n\nAppreciate the genesis of EMTALA and understand the basic regulatory framework attendant to same;\nDistinguish the legal obligations of receiving hospitals (from transferring facilities) and understand the implications for non-compliance with these obligations; and\nConsider and apply best practices to ensure receiving hospital are in a position to evidence compliance with their EMTALA obligations.\n\n  \nChris Eades focuses his practice in the areas of virtual care and medical staff governance. With respect to the latter\, Chris regularly counsels clients on matters involving medical staff credentialing and peer review\, as well as interpretation and application of hospital and professional licensure rules\, Medicare conditions of participation\, accreditation standards\, and medical staff governing documents. He is engaged by the firm’s clients to assist with the drafting and implementation of medical staff bylaws\, credentialing policies\, rules and regulations\, peer review sharing arrangements\, FPPE/OPPE processes and other medical staff policies and procedures. Peer review confidentiality and peer review immunity are critical to effective hospital and medical staff quality review. Chris frequently represents hospitals and other health care entities in the context of medical staff quality review and corrective action processes\, fair hearings and related litigation\, assisting these clients to maximize the intended benefit of peer review confidentiality and to achieve state and federal peer review immunity. \nAs part of his virtual care practice\, Chris regularly works with health care entities and providers throughout the country\, and also in other areas of the world\, to develop and implement virtual care programs. There is wide variability among jurisdictions in their approach to telehealth and telemedicine. Chris assists the firm’s clients to navigate this variability and to understand and appropriately apply the relevant telemedicine rules and regulations\, particularly those involving the professional practice of virtual care. These matters routinely involve professional licensure requirements\, delegated credentialing agreements\, scope of practice considerations\, informed consent for telemedicine services\, related recordkeeping requirements\, telemedicine prescription requirements and other aspects of virtual care workflow. Chris enjoys speaking at conferences and events throughout the year on aspects of virtual care\, particularly as the applicable regulatory framework continues to evolve in response to the wealth of potential made possible through telemedicine technology. \n

SUMMARY:Food for Thought: Tools and Challenges in Critical Care Nutrition
DESCRIPTION:Click HERE to Access OnDemand Recording \nClick HERE to Access CME Evaluation \nFood for Thought: Tools and Challenges in Critical Care Nutrition. \nPresented By: Colin Fath\, MD \nLearning Objectives:  \n\nUnderstand the potential benefits and risks in nutritional support for the critically ill patient\nRecognize the multiple barriers between our patients and optimal nutrition in ICU\nIdentify the strategies and tools available to improve patient outcomes despite these hurdles\n\nWhile Colin T. Fath\, MD\, started his college career as a chemical engineering major\, he pivoted toward medicine as he saw many engineers moving into management roles as they progressed in their field. “In the hospital I have the opportunity to keep practicing science\, work closely with people\, and have more chances to be of service in my community\,” he says. \nThe field of medicine was also a familiar one to him with both grandfathers\, his father\, and one of his sisters in this line of work. Dr. Fath chose to focus on acute care and typically treats surgical emergencies\, such as a car accident or an inflamed appendix. “My role is to guide those who are at their very sickest back toward safety\,” he says. “Between emergencies\, I treat general surgical problems such as hernias\, lumps and gallbladder disease.” \nHe studied at the University of Notre Dame where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering. He then graduated from Wayne State School of Medicine\, Detroit\, with his Medical Degree. His residency was completed at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics\, Iowa City\, in general surgery and his fellowship in surgical critical care was at University of Kentucky\, Lexington. \nDr. Fath sees his role as advisor\, with the final decision always with the patients he was done his best to make well-informed. He educates patients on their condition\, treatment options and what to expect in the various scenarios. “The right choice depends on each individual’s specific situation and values\,” he says. \nHe believes that while people will eventually become ill\, they will be better able to tackle a setback and other challenges in life if they have first taken care of their health.
