Third Thursday Webinars

In an effort to keep Vermont’s physicians up-to-date on clinical, regulatory, and practice management issues of importance to their practices, the Vermont Medical Society offers a monthly series of free educational webinars. The webinars take place on Zoom on the Third Thursday of every month, starting at 12:00 p.m. and ending at 1:00 p.m.

In support of improving patient care, this activity has been planned and implemented by the Robert Larner College of Medicine at the University of Vermont and the Vermont Medical Society. The University of Vermont designates this internet live activity for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Speakers: Jessa Barnard Esq., Stephanie Winters, Jill Sudhoff-Guerin

Join the Vermont Medical Society staff as they discuss important new laws and updates to Vermont legislation relating to the State’s health and practices of health care workers. A significant amount of time will be allotted for the Q&A portion following a detailed overview of what’s occurred at the Statehouse this session as it relates to medical professionals.
