New Course Release! Partnering for Success is an 8-hour online video course that was recorded live at ABQAURPโ€™s 48th Annual Conference. The course explores today's complex health care delivery as it continues to evolve into a high-quality, value-based care system; improving patient outcomes, reducing costs, and increasing value for all stakeholders. As regulatory changes unfold, the interprofessional health care team continues to seek strategies to coordinate patient needs, reduce burdens on providers, and ensure reimbursement is maximized without fear of penalty.

Adopting technology and fully utilizing available resources is paramount to continuously improving quality.
