Optimizing Rural Surgical Care Through Understanding, Cooperation and Collaboration - Jill Ties, MD

Intended Audience

This activity is designed for UW Department of Surgery faculty, residents and other healthcare providers as well as all surgeons and clinicians in Wisconsin and across the country interested in clinical effectiveness and efficacy as it relates to patient care and disease processes. As defined by the American College of Surgeons, surgeons are expected to study and evaluate new procedures and to become competent and proficient with advances that are appropriate. Technical skill alone is not sufficient to qualify a surgeon to perform new procedures. Procedural skills must be acquired within the context of in‐depth knowledge about the natural course of a disease.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:

  1. Discuss rural critical access hospitals
  2. Discuss capabilities of rural surgical care
  3. Discuss limitations of rural surgical care
  4. Discuss how tertiary centers and rural centers can cooperate to optimize patient care
