Dear colleagues,<br />
The <strong>2013</strong> COA/C-Bones Annual Meeting, to be held April 18—21, <strong>2013</strong> at the<br />
beautiful Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, will offer members many<br />
opportunities to educate themselves on the provisions of PPACA and to begin to<br />
prepare themselves for health reform. With a theme of "Preparing for Value-<br />
Based Health Care," the meeting features national and regional experts as part<br />
of a full-day program on many topics related to health care reform.<br />
Kevin J. Bozic, M.D., MBA<br />
President<br />
We will hear from Peter Lee, Executive Director of the <strong>California</strong> Health<br />
Exchange, who will explain how health exchanges will affect the provision of<br />
healthcare services in <strong>California</strong>. Mark Smith, President of the <strong>California</strong> Health<br />
Care Foundation, will also deliver the keynote address, challenging us to become<br />
actively engaged in the changes that will shape the future of healthcare delivery<br />
and payment in <strong>California</strong>.<br />
Facilitated, small-group mentoring sessions allow direct interaction with<br />
faculty, focusing on specific challenges facing solo/small group surgeons,<br />
practice productivity, employed physicians, and Worker’s Compensation practices.<br />
Diverse clinical topics will also be covered, but with an emphasis on<br />
evidence-based medicine as it applies to daily practice.<br />
In addition to CME hours, by opting to take the pre- and post-meeting test,<br />
participants can earn up to 10 hours of Maintenance of Certification (MOC)<br />
"Self-Assessment Exam" credit, designed to meet the American Board of<br />
<strong>Orthopaedic</strong> Surgeons (ABOS) requirement for MOC/MOL. The QME Program<br />
has been consolidated on Thursday to provide 6 hours of QME CME with topics<br />
including PRP and CRPS. Experts will explore implications of the 2012 Work<br />
Comp legislation for treating physicians and QMEs/AMEs.<br />
Alexandra Page, M.D.<br />
<strong>2013</strong> Program Chair<br />
All of this will take place at the beautiful oceanfront Terranea Resort in Rancho<br />
Palos Verdes, less than 30 minutes from the LAX airport. Social events include<br />
the Taste of Terranea Gala Dinner which will feature different stations of flavors<br />
from the diverse chefs at the resort. Feel like golfing on the edge of the Pacific<br />
Ocean Join the COA Golf Tournament at the world renown Trump National<br />
Golf Course. Sign up early as the tournament is limited to 28 players!<br />
In addition to the intrinsic natural beauty, on-site and nearby golf courses, the<br />
resort offers fine dining, a spa, family activities, and easy access to Los Angeles<br />
attractions. We hope you will be able to join us for what promises to be another<br />
spectacular COA Annual Meeting.<br />
