LEARNING GAP There is clearly a gap in dermatologic diagnostic and therapeutic skills when considering the primary care physician population as a whole. It is recognized that many important dermatologic topics are inadequately taught during both medical school and postgraduate education. Repeated studies of skills assessments demonstrate an unequivocal lack of core cognitive and surgical dermatological skills among those delivering primary care. Physicians must also be prepared as the timeline for implementation of ICD-10-CM is approaching, and be aware of the ICD-10-CM requirements for documentation and the general principles of medical record documentation and why it is important. This conference will review diagnostic and therapeutic information relating to skin disease in a didactic manner, accomplished by a series of medically-oriented talks followed by a series of surgically-oriented talks, revolving around high volume/high risk subjects. The program will include hands on diagnostic training involving dermatoscopy, a relatively easy technique which greatly enhances diagnostic skills for skin tumors, now reaching epidemic proportions in the U.S. As an added bonus, the conference content will include information to assist the practitioner in understanding practice goals for ICD-10-CM implementation, as well as the importance of medical record documentation as it applies to coding. TARGET AUDIENCE This activity is designed for healthcare professionals including physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners specializing in Internal Medicine, Family or General Medicine, Geriatric Medicine, Emergency Medicine, and Pediatrics/Adolescent Medicine. Other healthcare professionals practicing in a primary care environment or needing additional information for primary treatment in a specialty environment may find this activity beneficial to their patient s outcomes.
