Re: Amazing Charts ACUC this June- worth going?

I'm going and I'm on the planning committee too, so some bias (though not paid bias)I think if you ONLY want to learn about PMthen just call and set up web ex with support when it comes out.other than that lots of other great sessions like how to use health maintenance, how to use meaningful use wizards and add ons and tips from other rabidly enthused AC users, of which there are many, and development inputBut I wouldn't think it worth it for just PMOf course, RI is beauteous that time of year.

Curious if other AC users have been in years past. Considering going to see/ learn about new PM module but large expense to go. Anyone with an opinion about worth the money or not? WeaklandBallard Neighborhood Doctors

Now with regard to PF, patient data is HIPAA protected but how comfortable are you with having your information sold to the pharmaceutical companies or whomever they wish? That’s seems to be the cost of free!

There've been a couple of recent blogs on this subject as a result of the Walgreens suit.

See http://onhealthtech.blogspot.com/2011/03/unjust-enrichment.html Basically docs input the data at a significant cost to themselves .. but someone else benefits. Not fair.

Yes,

But it will almost certainly come with about a dozen credits of CME for the cost as well if I'm not mistaken. Jon's applied so if that is important and worthwhile that's another good reason to attend. And I REALLY NEED to meet Dr Bert in person finally and we ALL have to by him a round or take him out for dinner because there probably isn't an AC user who in one way or another hasn't benefit from all of his Help... He is just so good at it and all too generous with his time and assistance... We all owe Bert probably almost as much as we owe Jon but at least we pay Jon something for his efforts...Also we have to Convince Bert Into finally getting his friend "Ed" to do a software development kit with AC, Jon to make FAP, File Assist Pro and real and offered to all program add on. just loves it and so would most of you...

I'm not sure if I have the cash as money is extra tight but at least we can drive, like Camp in land this fall too... And then with camp there is hockey season to contend with too... We'll see...

BTW, is the fee for ACUC per practice or doctor or per attendee because that will make a huge difference for us as well.... If I can attend on the same entrance fee as that cuts the cost of like 395 of what have you somewhat down to size for us... Then there's all the other thing like room and board to deal with as well... But I really, really want to go to both if we can... It would be awesome...

I think the fee is per attendee. :-(Lynn
