Education Council

 

Quarterly Report

Shannon Young, CPC, CPPM

 

Questions for Discussion:

 

 

  •  Is there anything that the Board of Directors would like the Education Council to be working on that is not currently on our radar?  

  • Credentialing or certification as a result of the webinars. (might encourage people to send their staff as well as themselves to spend the time to attend)

  • Revisit the O-AMCPE.  

    A coding conference directed to AAOE members and their staff. 1.5 day conference. Not September, AAPC (4/1/2025) does theirs in the beginning of the year. So maybe Q4 (could incorporate the changes that are made in October) or Q2 (End of Q2 or beginning of Q4) would be the right timeframe.

      • What do you appreciate about the IRAB? 

      • What did you learn about the IRAB, once you joined the board, that you were excited to learn, or felt was an important component of the work the IRAB does?
