Virtual medical group goes online
NEWS IN BRIEF — Posted May 23, 2005
Texas Tech University in Lubbock, which has added a practical business course on medicine to its residents' curriculum, recently launched a Web site on the topic. The actual class is not available to off-campus learners yet, but the school intends to make it available in the future.
Called the "Virtual Medical Group," the program covers physician employment agreements, physician productivity and reimbursement issues, professional liability agreements and other business issues that physicians encounter.
Part of the Web site (link) is open to the public. This was reported in an earlier issue (AMNews, Feb. 21)
