As there are preventions and cures for disease, there are communication remedies and techniques that support a healthy physician-patient relationship, preserve patient safety, and ultimately protect physicians from liability. 1.25 CME credits available.

At the completion of this activity, the learner will be able to: 

• Know how the communication process works 

• Recognize communication practices that strengthen the physician-patient relationship, impact patient outcome and satisfaction, and potentially reduce a physician’s liability risk
