In health care, ending a patient relationship is never a simple decision—and it is one that must be approached with empathy and a strong understanding of legal and ethical obligations. The California Medical Association and The Doctors Company recently cohosted a webinar to provide information and guidance on best practices when dismissing patients from a medical practice.

This webinar is now available for on-demand viewing, and is free to all interested parties.

The webinar covers reasons for dismissing a patient, and the importance of clear communication, documentation, and following proper protocols to protect both your practice and your patients.
