Most physicians don’t have the opportunity to learn the business side of medicine. The "What Docs Don’t Get Taught: Physician Business Training" course, developed by MGMA in collaboration with administrators from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, provides in-depth business training for physicians.
This on-demand course offers practical insights that drive both personal and organizational success, and participants can earn 8 hours of CME credit.
