Diagnostic Testing and Training for Electromyography and
NCVS Studies for Physicians and Mid-Level Providers.
NVC / EMG Training - Testimonials

There are many features that distinguish our NCV EMG (Electromyography) training. For one, and unlike another leading EMG NCV learning institution, we do not use this professional, medical workshop as a hidden strategy to sell equipment or other NCV EMG (Electromyography) services. The training you will receive with Empire is hands-on, comprehensive, and instructed by Physician specialists. You will receive unbiased, non-commercial medical information and the latest standard of care procedures for NCV EMG studies including the latest protocols. Included with your workshop will be education videos showing detailed demonstrations of the most common EMG and NCVS services you will be providing.

This NCV-EMG workshop will prepare the physician to integrate the technical, and business requirements to set up a full nerve conduction studies practice in their primary care office.

The NCV EMG courses begin with didactic material covering the specific principles of nerve conduction studies followed by hands-on training to gain proficiency in the various procedures. You will learn specifically how to perform upper and lower extremity nerve conduction studies in the Median, Ulnar, Radial, Superficial Peroneal, Sural, Peroneal, and Posterior Tibial nerves. Special H-Reflex and F-Wave techniques will be taught and demonstrated.

UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
DATES & LOCATIONS

During the Hands-On portion of the training, physicians will perform each technique taught in the EMG training workshop using state-of-the-art EMG (Electromyography) equipment with guidance and supervision from faculty and staff.

The EMG conference and NCV workshops incorporate advanced training in the medical, technical, and business applications of a full nerve conduction practice. This Workshop is an intensive program that provides comprehensive didactic sessions and hands-on training by experts with over 30 years of experience in the field. Ample time will be available for discussions and question and answer sessions.

Your instruction will only be conducted with small groups of physicians to help facilitate the learning process. During the small group sessions, physicians will learn basic and advanced nerve conduction studies techniques on volunteers; understand their clinical indications.

After completion of the program you will be prepared to set up full nerve conduction and EMG practice in your office, and integrate nerve conduction studies as a sub-specialty into your practice.

You will learn to access your local medical review policy to learn the specific regulations for your demographic area. In addition, you will gain a thorough understanding of the billing, coding, and insurance guidelines for reimbursement. In addition to CME Credits, a Certificate Of Achievement is presented upon successful completion and demonstration of the various nerve conduction studies procedures.


Although these procedures are generously reimbursed by most insurance companies, it is of the utmost importance that physicians adhere to strict medical necessity in order to prevent incorrect coding and overutilization. In addition to the added value, a nerve conduction study brings to a primary care practice, there is a significant increase in reimbursement as well.

Who should attend?

  • Physicians who are interested in acquiring the medical and technical skills needed to perform nerve conduction studies in their practice.
  • Physicians who want to increase their practice revenue by adding a reimbursable service separately. Those who require learning proper methods to ensure consistent and appropriate reimbursement.
  • Physicians who often refer their EMG cases to other specialists and believe they can offer patients a valuable medical service in their practice instead.

NCV / EMG TRAINING

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES

Hands-On

Training

Unlike some seminars, our programs are not demonstration only. Attendees are expected and required to perform procedures under the direct supervision of a qualified physician instructor in order to receive their certification. The afternoon session is reserved for intensive hands-on training, where our instructors will be carefully monitoring your technique and style of injecting to help improve your skills.
