Are Continuing Education (CE) credits being offered?

Yes! We will have more information coming soon.

Who should attend the conference?

NEXUS has valuable information for all members of the practice team! There are going to be tracks that benefit both the doctor and the office staff. We will have targeted classes for all.

What topics will be discussed?

The core of the theme is that with the rollercoaster ride of up/down start trends and all the winds of change we focused on last year, this is the year practices need to get serious about making the changes to avoid falling behind. That means accepting some uncomfortable truths and also getting out of their comfort zone.

This is the year they take a hard look at their org, their technology stack, and how they are positioned. As usual, NEXUS is designed to be the ‘uncola’ meeting in that we don’t just invite leading speakers and quilt together their pet topics. We use our data and trends to define the themes and topics we think the industry needs to hear, and then ask our leading KOL partners to develop content to address that.

So the meeting, as you witnessed last year, has a very coordinated message and feel and is designed to drive real action.
