LIVE BLOG: 2012 ASCRS/ASOA Meeting in Chicago
UPDATE: A BIG thank you to the 200 attendees at OMIC’s risk management seminar Professional Liability Risks Associated with Premium IOL Implants yesterday! OMIC insureds earned an average of more than $1,100 in discounts for attending.
If you missed the event, there are still plenty of ways to earn your discount. See below for links to OMIC’s risk management seminar schedule and list of cooperative venture opportunities, and online and recorded courses.
We were delighted to see OMIC’s patient consent templates and other risk management resources referenced in the Ophthalmology Management article Avoiding 10 Common Malpractice Claims

If you are attending the ASCRS-ASOA annual meeting at the McCormick Place, please plan to visit the OMIC Insurance Center at booth number 1423.
OMIC Risk Management Seminar:
Saturday, April 21, 2012 (Completed)
- Professional Liability Risks Associated with Premium IOL Implants- Effective Management of Presbyopia-Correcting Patients
- American Society of Cataract & Refractive Surgery 2012 (ASCRS)
- McCormick Place West Convention Ceter, Chicago, IL
- Time: 1:00-2:00 pm
- Register with ASCRS at (800) 748-5064 or go to www.ascrs.org
This seminar qualifies for a risk management discount equal to either 5% (standard) or 10% (approved cooperative venture event*) of the insured physician’s premium.
*Insureds who are members of a cooperative venture society earn a 10% discount (a credit worth up to $3,000) by participating in an approved OMIC risk management activity, which may be either a live seminar or an online or recorded course.
For more information on OMIC’s educational alliances with ophthalmic societies offered through the Cooperative Venture Network go here. If your state or subspecialty society has the words “LIVE EVENT REQUIRED” then you must attend the OMIC seminar conducted at that organization’s annual meeting (or other approved event) in order to earn the discount. For any organization that has an OMIC CV but does not have those words, any OMIC risk management event qualifies and your attendance at the ASCRS event above will earn the 10% CV discount.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call Linda Nakamura at (800) 562-6642, ext. 652, or lnakamura@omic.com.
