Copic Insights – A Half-Day Symposium
Tuesday, September 10th, 2024
Kimpton Cottonwood || Omaha, NE
Meeting Room: Schimmel Ballroom

Copic is proud to be coming to Omaha for a half-day symposium that will dive into a variety of risk management topics. Our physician risk managers, patient safety risk managers, and other Copic team members will lead an interactive discussion on common and emerging high-risk scenarios and present illustrative cases based on actual medical liability lawsuits from Copic's files.

Whether you're a practitioner or a practice manager, our goal is to keep you informed of critical risk areas, and reduce your chance of being named in a lawsuit. We offer insight to enhance patient safety, and create a forum for providers to discuss challenges they are facing.

For more information and to register, please email Stephanie Heronema.
