The purpose of this session is to focus on a range of challenges and opportunities that Young and Early Career Physicians (YPS) face now and in the near future. From informatics to patient and family centered care, the breadth and depth of YPS involvement is limitless. The invited speakers are nationally renowned for their expertise in these topics and their ability to speak to the YPS audience.

Speaker(s):The purpose of this session is to take your learning to new levels - and have fun while doing so. This is a dynamic, highly interactive and fast-paced session designed for practicing radiologists, fellows and residents. Join this team-based rapid-fire 'competition' and assess your and your teams' baseline knowledge in Breast, Thoracic, Neuro, Peds, MSK, GI/GU, Non-interpretive Skills and more, across the radiology spectrum. Instant feedback, in-depth rationales and real-time scoring using audience response (ARS) are utilized. Additionally, the session will provide ample time for Q&A to discuss the most challenging questions as identified by ARS scoring.
Learning Objectives:
The purpose of this session is to focus on the role leadership can play in designing and implementing programs in hospitals and radiology practices to improve and optimize the patient experience. The perspectives and needs of leaders and patients will be explored through a series of practical cases/discussion. Specifically, the economic and social drivers for patient engagement by radiologists will be explored. Next, the basics of building a patient advisor program will be reviewed from recruitment and training to deployment in projects. Because patients are already on social media and engaged, we will explore the opportunities that exist for radiologists and radiology practices to have a social media presence and interact with patients in a social media environment. Finally, including patients in the implementation of EHR patient portals will be used as an example of how to engage patients in radiology operations. Developed in conjunction with Radiology Leadership Institute.
Learning Objectives:
The purpose of this session is to assist radiologists and other health professionals in understanding their role as advocates, the changing landscape, and how to maintain a relevant program that embraces digital advocacy.
Learning Objectives:
The purpose of this session is to focus on critical test results management (CTRM) - the reporting and communication of critical test results that could change patient management within minutes to hours. However, equally important and sometimes more challenging is the reporting of non-critical actionable findings: those that can impact the patient's health months to years later if downstream testing is not completed. While critical test results are often identified on emergency department patients or inpatients whose providers are in the hospital at the time, non-critical actionable findings are often identified in outpatients whose providers may not even belong to the same hospital or health system. In addition, determining if downstream testing has occurred months later further confounds this problem. The Imaging 3.0 initiative recommends that the radiologist be present during all three steps of an examination: before, during, and after. Taking an active role in the management of non-critical actionable findings aligns with the principles of Imaging 3.0. In this session, we identify some of the challenges associated with monitoring patients with incomplete follow-up and discuss some solutions that have been implemented in the emergency department, ambulatory setting, as well as across health systems to address this opportunity to improve the care of our patients.
Learning Objectives:
The purpose of this session will be to discuss the many changes that will affect the radiation oncology reimbursement landscape over the next few years. The session will discuss the changing payer models. MIPS/MACRA and other models, an update on quality and performance measures and changing practice patterns which will impact patient volumes and reimbursement.
