We’re thrilled to announce a brand-new, one-day live workshop, Musculoskeletal Impairment Rating Live, scheduled for July 29th in Atlanta, GA!

The Back School, in partnership with Impairment Rating Services of Alabama, LLC, are pleased to present Musculoskeletal Impairment Rating Using the American Medical Association’s Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, Sixth Edition, a 7.5 hour clinical education course. The purpose of the course is to gain competency in medical record review, physical examination methods, and report writing for musculoskeletal and nervous system impairment rating using the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, Sixth Edition. The course is an interactive lecture format with demonstration of examination procedures, practice sessions, case studies, and a written post-test.

Upon receipt of the post-test with a passing score and completed seminar evaluation, attendees will receive a course certificate.
