Satellite Friday Afternoon Meeting
Action: MBS, Politics, the Law and other things
The MBS changes marked a significant change in the political landscape of Interventional cardiology with an emphasis on appropriate use criteria. This has occurred at a time when many other changes effecting the catheter lab are occurring.
It is the view of Action Day that the future of Interventional cardiology in Australia would be best served if the future leaders have more exposure to important non-clinical education.
On that background, Action XI is pleased to announce as the satellite Friday meeting “Action: MBS, Politics, the Law and other things”
We are very excited by the program and honoured that such an illustrious faculty would agree to join us. This meeting will be capped at approximately 50 to 60 people to allow interaction in the room and the speakers have been asked to promote discussion.
We would encourage all major labs to have representation, registration is via the link below.
