Proposed Regs Change Face of EMTALA
In May, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services released proposed changes to The Emergency Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA). Since its inception, many questions and concerns have been raised regarding EMTALA’s changing practice patters, confusion resulting from inconsistent enforcement, and variation between regulatory and case law interpretation. To clear up these inconsistencies for health care professionals, American Health Consultants offers a compact disc of EMTALA Update 2002, its successful audio conference presented by Charlotte Yeh, MD, FACEP, and Nancy Brent, RN, MS, JD, nationally recognized speakers on EMTALA. The anticipated date for the new rules to go into effect is Oct. 1. Don’t miss out on important information to bring your facility into compliance. The cost of the CD is $249, which includes 1 nursing contact hour or 1 AMA Category 1 CME credit for each member of your staff. To order this invaluable teaching tool, please call American Health Consultants’ customer service department at (800) 688-2421, or order online at www.ahcpub.com.
