Stay ahead of curve with AAO resource center offerings
Where can one preview the latest products from the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO), get answers to specific coding questions, talk to Washington insiders about reimbursement, personalize patient-education DVDs, get a first look at the academy's new Maintenance of Certification (MOC) products, and learn the ins and outs of acquiring and installing an electronic medical records system? There's only one place and it happens only once a year—the annual meeting, where all these resources and much more can be found at the academy resource center and technology pavilion.
The resource center, located in the exhibit hall (Hall A, Booth 2144), is open to all meeting registrants from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 15, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday and Monday, and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday.
