Risk Management Considerations with Supervisory and Consultative Relationships
Registration Fee Schedule:
“Risk Management Considerations with Supervisory and Consultative Relationships”
There are three primary shared treatment models for psychiatrists: consultative, supervisory, and collaborative. A psychiatrist’s understanding of the risks associated with each model depends on the specific integrated care setting they work in, their clarity about the roles and expectations within each model, and their knowledge of the legal elements involved in negligence claims.
This webinar will assist participants in addressing the risks associated with different psychiatric roles by emphasizing the
importance of understanding relevant state and federal laws regarding doctor-patient relationships, consultations, and supervisory duties. It will use case examples to illustrate various shared treatment models and highlight risk mitigation strategies to reduce liability exposure.
