Obamacare
promises to make changes that will hopefully help the masses, but
clearly there are a number of challenges that physicians will face as
a result. However, medical practices can thrive by adding
'non-insurance based services' to their portfolio, such as dermal
fillers, botox injections, anti-aging treatments, non-invasive body
sculpting, and medically supervised weight management. To assist
physicians in profitably adding these procedures and programs to
their practices, the IAPAM has announced the next dates for its
respected Aesthetic Medicine Symposium: April 5-6, 2014 in
Scottsdale, AZ.
Las
Vegas, Nevada, USA (February 20, 2014) -- There has been
much talk in the media and physician community regarding the
Affordable Care Act, well known as 'Obamacare' or the 'Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act' (PPACA). Many physicians members
are concerned about how this new program will impact the health of
their patients and the health of their medical practices.
However,
there is evidence that by adding non-invasive treatments to a
practice, such as botox, dermal fillers,
microdermabrasion/microchanneling, chemical peels, body contouring
technologies (e.g. skin tightening, fat reduction), lasers for skin
rejuvenation/tattoo removal/hair removal, and medically supervised
weight management programs (e.g. hCG Diet), would increase the income
a practice is able to make as payments will have to be made directly
and immediately to undergo these procedures.
To
support physicians seeking both clinical and business training in
adding these aesthetic modalities, the International Association for
Physicians in Aesthetic Medicine (IAPAM) designed its Aesthetic
Medicine Symposium to give physicians all the
information, forms, DVDs, hands-on training, etc. they need to begin
offering aesthetics when they finish the conference.
The
IAPAM is the only complete program that offers:
-
An Accelerated program; physicians and their staff can be certified
over a weekend;
-
Clinical training DVDs to take back to one's practice;
-
Board Certified Dermatologists as instructors;
-
Internationally Recognized Certification;
-
CME (Continuing Medical Education) credits;
-
1 Year of Practice Support (which continues as long as one is a
member);
-
And much, much, more!
"The
IAPAM has noticed a sharp increase in the registrations for its
cosmetic procedures hands-on CME training programs like
botox/fillers, lasers, medical microdermabrasion, and non-invasive
body shaping; along with its medically supervised weight loss
program, all of which are not insurance covered and affect a majority
of their existing patients," says Jeff Russell, Executive
Director of the IAPAM (http://www.iapam.com).
"Patients may not get the long term benefits of a face lift, but
with a combination treatment of botox, dermal fillers, weight loss,
etc. they can get a great result at a fraction of the price."
