This 10-hour course covers how to understand traumatic brain injury in concussion. When there is a head injury inclusive of direct trauma or coup-contrecoup type trauma the brain can sustain a myriad of injuries. The primary spine care provider must understand the signs and symptoms for early detection as this can have either pathological cognitive sequella or death at the most extreme. This course covers the clinical examination, advanced imaging and advanced neurodiagnostic testing to conclusively diagnose traumatic brain injuries and any necessary triage. Also, this program emphasizes the urgency of triage pending a clinical evaluation.

Part 1: Traumatic Brain Injury and Concussion Overview:.  This section is an in-depth overview of traumatic brain injury in concussion. It discusses that all brain injuries are traumatic and dispels the myth of a “mild traumatic brain injury.” Also, this covers triage protocols and the potential sequela of patients with traumatic brain injuries.

Part 2: Head Trauma and Traumatic Brain Injury Part 1: This section discusses gross traumatic brain injuries from trauma and significant bleeding with both epidural and subdural hematomas. There are numerous case studies reviewed inclusive of neurosurgical intervention and postsurgical outcomes.

Part 3: Head Trauma and Traumatic Brain Injury Part 2: This section continues with multiple case studies of gross traumatic brain injuries from trauma requiring neurosurgical intervention and also discusses recovery sequela based upon the significance of brain trauma. This module also concludes with concussion protocols in traumatic brain injury short of demonstrable bleeding on advanced imaging.

Part 4: Concussion And Electroencephalogram Testing: This this section covers concussion etiology and cognitive sequela where gross bleeding has not been identified on advanced imaging. It discusses the significance of electroencephalogram testing in determining brain function and pathology (if present). This module also covers the understanding of waveforms in electroencephalogram testing in both normal and abnormal scenarios.

Part 5: Concussion And Electroencephalogram Testing Pathological Results: This module covers amplitude, conduction and conduction delays as sequela to traumatic brain injury to diagnose concussion and traumatic brain injury in the absence of gross bleeding and advanced imaging. This section covers electroencephalograms and event-related potentials which measures the brain response that is a direct result of specific sensory or motor events. It is a stereotype electrophysiological response to a stimulus and provides a noninvasive means of evaluating brain function. In this module multiple case studies are discussed with ensuing triage protocols pending the results.

This 3 hour course covers how to document the entire history and findings of a trauma case and ensures that both settlements(Colossus) and verdict items are covered through thorough documentation. The entire program is centered on the current teachings in academia and focuses on creating an accurate diagnosis, prognosis and treatment plan. The carriers algorithms for "Colossus type" requirements are quite specific and when analyzed meet all of the academic requirements for thorough documentation. Those standards, inclusive of functional losses and ancillary care, support, gaps in care, etc... are all explained in detail. There are many areas where courtroom requirements conflict with carrier requirements, however if an academic standard is adhered to, both scenarios are ethically documented. 

Part 1:  Integration of "Colossus type" insurance algorithms and court documentation requirements with current academia standards. Protocols and documentation standards in ordering diagnostics and treatment regimens.                                           2 Hours

Module #1: Personal Injury 101
Triaging and reporting while maintaining ethical medical-legal relationships

This is an Audio Only Program

Course Objective: This course gives you the rationale of why some doctors have huge personal injury practices, yet others struggle and never will. It explains why marketing, advertising, dining and sporting events are failed paradigms in building the PI practice and are not substitutes for clinical excellence and admissibility. This program sets the foundation of understanding the needs of the medical-legal community and unless you speak the language of the lawyer in an ethical relationship, you will forever be on the outside looking in. We also set the foundation of the tools needed, in documentation, clinical skills and protocols required to be the best-of-the-best at what you do and the formula for getting the lawyer to come after you vs. you begging and pleading for referrals.

Module #6: Documentation and Working within Your State Laws to Ensure Compliant Paperwork and Reimbursement

Course Objective: This session is designed to show you how to use compliant documentation and various programs in securing payment and cash flow for your practice. We bring in specialists in the medical-legal-financial world that show you how compliant documentation is the key to winning in practice.
 
The course will also cover how to use the laws in your state to secure payment in a timely fashion. It uncovers the “secrets” of what the insurance industry does not want you to know, the laws in every state in the country that force them to pay your claim in a timely fashion. The insurance industry has a finite date to pay your claim by law, in most states. If they don't, they have to pay you interest and can be fined in many states for improper delays. Knowing the laws and how to implement them has taken offices from 50-60% collections to 95-100% collections in a short amount of time. It all centers around accurate documentation and implementation of that paperwork.

The Spinal Biomechanical Engineering course is engineered to help you understand the biomechanics, pathobiomechanics and bio-neuro-biomechanics of the spine. Simply stated, how the spine should function normally and what happens when aberrant forces are translated to the spine and the negative sequella pathologically. These pathological changes can be quantified, once understood and then part of a conclusive demonstrative diagnosis (visualized and verified in a reproducible posture), prognosis and treatment plan.

In addition, this course will help you analyze the vector of forces involved in trauma cases and the neurological component as a result. Each instructor has focused a good portion of their career in researching, teaching and practicing spinal biomechanics. This course is also credentialed by the State University of New York at Buffalo Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical sceinces, Texas Chiropractic College and is PACE  recognized by the Federation of Chiropractic Licensign Boards.

7 CE Credits

*CE Credits are issued for Doctors of Chiropractic only.

*Please note this course is not approved in the state of FL.

*Please note this course is only approved for 5 CE credits in the state of NH.

The neurology of ligament pathology is an inclusive course covering ligaments and spinal disc (also ligaments). As discs are integral in spinal biomechanics, we discuss the role that a herniated or bulged disc plays in aberrant biomechanics and when the patient can undergo corrective care vs. management of care. The course also explains why long-termed chiropractic care is clinically indicated. 

This course details the roles of mechanoreceptors, proprioceptors and nociceptors in a pathological spine and one that is undergoing compensation as sequellae to trauma and tissue pathology. This course prepares you to be expert on spinal pathology and the mechanisms of compensation in addition to the why a patient “might” need lifetime care, no different than the diabetic, who needs lifetime care. In addition, this course will prepare you for patients who have “shifting pain” as a natural course of compensation.

The Stroke Anatomy & Evaluation course is engineered to help you understand the vessels of the brain from both a structural and functional perspective. The course has an extensive review of the anatomy and physiology of brain hemodynamics along with detailing the variations of stroke etiology, types and complications. It covers in detail what to include and how to perform an extensive "stroke risk" history and neurological examination that allows the practitioner to be "time efficient," yet thorough. 

This course for the first time, gives the chiropractor/manual medicine provider risk factors and evaluation tools that can be performed in any clinical setting, to be able to assess and manage risk prior to delivering care. In addition, this course offers a "Clinical Protocol" to triage your patient based upon examination findings and has a section on Clinical Grand Rounds to give further insight in creating an accurate diagnosis, prognosis and treatment plan.

Testifying, Documentation & Ethical Medical-Legal Relationships

20 CE Credits

*CE Credits are issued for Doctors of Chiropractic only.

*Please note this course is not approved in the state of FL.

*Please note this course was only approved for 10 CE credits in the state of Texas.

The Testifying course covers how to set up the "4-corners" of your patient documentation for a medical-legal setting based upon an accurate history and physical examination and then how to ensure it is documented accurately. It then goes to the next step in showing you how to articulate and if necessary, defend your records in direct-examination, cross-examination and re-direct examinations. This program covers every aspect of the legal process in becoming an expert, inclusive of what is required to be considered an expert at this level. 

Although doctors have to follow the tenents of our licenses, we are also compelled by the legal system to function according to the rules of the courts, which are not inherent within the training of doctors and this course will prepare you to succeed in that system. In addition, the course will prepare you to triage your patients based upon clinical necessity and secure the documentation from other providers to conclude and accurate diagnosis, prognosis and treatment plan.
