We are the Leading Provider in Joint Injection Training Courses

This program is intended to compliment our Advanced Pain Management Training Program/ The Pain Show.

During the advanced program, there is a strong emphasis on Spinal Injections such as Facet Joint/ Epidural injections using Fluoroscopic guidance for needle localization.

The Joint/ Extremity Injection, Pain Management Training course will provide instruction on many other common modalities/procedures that you can offer patients in your office.

Generally, these procedures are simple to perform and learn, have a lower risk threshold and are financially rewarding as well. Your patients will also be pleased that you can treat them rather than referring.

This comprehensive Pain Management training program will provide training in a variety of daily office procedures you can immediately integrate into your practice.

We are pleased to announce that Dr. Roman will continue to provide instruction for this program. He is a favorite instructor for Empire Medical Training and is well liked by our attendees. In addition to his credentials, he has extensive experience in training other physicians in Pain Management techniques.

The Pain Management Training workshop will begin with didactic presentations covering the different medical conditions and treatment procedures that can be provided. You will learn specifically about the different Pain Management injection techniques used, the protocols, supplies and solutions, medications, side effects, precautions as well as patient selection criteria. Considerable time will be used to review diagnostic evaluation including physical exam, lab, and/or xray or imaging analysis.

Prior to lunch, there will be a 1 hour lecture in business and marketing so that you can learn how to promote Pain Management services in your practice. Empire provides extensive education in this area as most physicians intend to create additional revenue streams for their practices.

After lunch, you will learn the coding and billing parameters necessary for Medicare and other insurance carriers. Although these procedures are generously reimbursed, it is important to follow correct medical necessity and coding guidelines.

 

Extremity and Non-Spinal Injections Training and More

Prior to the Hands- On portion of the training, there will be an extensive Question and Answer session not only covering the topics presented, but also to discuss additional topics requested by the physician audience. This interactive experience is an integral part of the program. Our instructors will go over case studies and various academic problems for the group to solve.

 

The majority of the afternoon will be spent actually performing the various injection techniques. In addition to volunteers, physicians will train on custom training models specifically designed to perform injection techniques and surgical procedures.
