Plastic Surgery Senior Residents Conference

Program Overview

The ASPS Plastic Surgery Senior Residents Conference will provide you with information essential to building your future practice. This year's program places an emphasis on practice management that includes success tips, common practice problems, mistakes to avoid in the first years of practice, planning your financial future, legal interactions and CPT® coding sessions to gain a better understanding of coding nomenclature and the reimbursement process. In addition to these sessions, attendees will have the opportunity to deliver papers of scientific merit, and prizes will be awarded for outstanding presentations. Most importantly, this conference will provide the opportunity to network with fellow residents from training programs across the U.S.
