Your commitment to yourself becomes the benchmark for both the care your patients receive today and the future of pain medicine and healthcare overall.
Self study - 3-4 hours/week (30 minutes early/late each day OR 2 hours/weekend day)
Coaching calls - 6-8 live calls, arranged to accommodate your schedules, and recordings are available.
Community - No additional time. Most people spend time on social media in some capacity and this is your personal community support through connection with other colleagues sharing questions, ideas, challenges and successes, providing useful skills, articles and discussions. Your inbuilt, ever accessible community support!
This is a small investment of time for MASSIVE gains that will eventually help you SAVE time in your busy schedules you won't be spending researching answers to common pediatric pain challenges, or finding/creating guidelines or policies etc.
You access the lessons & Resource Library at your convenience ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, in between patients or even during your commute. Alternatively, you can set aside a little time on the weekends before you jump into your day with your family. As stated earlier, it takes as little as 30 mins per day or ~ 2 hours/weekend day to get your online modules done.
This sure beats the time, money and resources needed for a year long training program at some other institution, losing your ability to earn a practicing physician salary, giving up/delaying independent practice. It's a small price for the gains you make as a confident, skilled and versatile physician with enhanced professional satisfaction and job security.
Yes you could, BUT the wait times to get an appointment with the limited number of pediatric experts could be months to years. They are your established patients, they will come to you and/or call you first and with expectations that you'll help them to some extent. How you handle their pain issues will determine their satisfaction and engagement. Moreover, if pain is not properly addressed early, it becomes refractory and harder to treat, may spread to multiple sites and results in persistent mental health issues like depression and anxiety. Your productivity, reimbursement, your reputation are tied to patient family satisfaction scores which are driven heavily by their pain care(or lack there of). Some institutions seek accreditation or ranking status based on the quality of care provided, again pain care forms a significant determinant there. Effective navigation of these core issues is part of this curriculum along with the skills and knowledge you need to successfully assess and treat pediatric pain.
Yes. However, it depends on your institution. You will need to check with them if they allow use of your CME/educational/meeting funds for this purpose or have professional development funds they utilize to support your training. If they do, and wish to be billed directly, you can have them contact us at [email protected]
Alternatively, we can provide you a receipt and supportive documentation about the Physicians Academy you may file for reimbursement from your institution.
Our CME application is in process and available for only the live weekend workshop hours. Every attempt will be made to ensure this is approved, however, we do not guarantee that unless the approval has been granted.
Technically there is no specific board certification in pediatric pain medicine, however there are two Boards that offer certifications in Pain Medicine; the American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) and the American Board of Pain Medicine (ABPM). You may become eligible for the ABPM board certification, as long as you can also demonstrate a certain amount of clinical exposure to pain patients AND your department/division chief provides a letter of support to appear in the board exam. Just to be clear, today there are more board certified pain physicians through the ABPM than there are through the ABA, which only offers board eligibility to candidates who have completed an ACGME accredited pain fellowship training.
Yes, there's a dedicated module offering at least 2 hours of relevant opioid training. However, each state has different requirements and you should check with your state medical board to see their requirements and determine if this will offer you all the required hours or should you supplement this.
