The Informed Consent Process
and Patients' Rights
With a better understanding of what puts your practice at risk, we can help improve defensibility in the event of a claim.
The ABSA is a brief survey that can be completed by the entire healthcare team (physicians included) in a few short minutes. Questions focus on office processes related to medical liability. This approach promotes candid answers to help us identify gaps in knowledge. Aggregated results are then reviewed so that focused educational opportunities can address the gaps.
