Description of CME Course
This course will provide you with an overview of value in health care. We’ll start by distinguishing between cost and value, and understanding how both of these concepts relate to quality. We’ll introduce you to the growing problem of health care spending, as well as the health care practitioner’s role in managing these costs. Finally, we’ll explain how to identify and overcome barriers to providing high-value, cost-effective care.
