The COVID-19 pandemic forced us all to stop, reflect, and assess how to design GI operations today for tomorrow. Reinforced was the depth of the interdependence we have across the GI Team from the managing partner to the nurse manager to the biller. Recognizing the limited capacity practices and units have to support up-to-date education for the entire GI Team, ASGE has redesigned, repackaged, and repriced its practice operations offerings, GI Outlook and Trifecta, with an eye to restoring 20/20 vision for GI Practice Operations. ASGE wants to ensure that now and during the upcoming months you are focused on being successful and understand how the ASGE Fall courses play a role in helping you prepare and maintain your unit’s success.
