NPA Fall Conference – Ethics and Risk Management in the Age of The Affordable Care Act: Everything You Didn’t Want to Know and Were Afraid to Ask

***Change in Presenter***

Eric A. Harris, Ed.D., J.D. is replacing Dr. Daniel Taube as presenter at the NPA Fall Conference, and we are excited to welcome Dr. Harris to Nebraska before his formal retirement this fall!

NPA Fall Conference - Ethics and Risk Management in the Age of The Affordable Care Act: Everything You Didn’t Want to Know and Were Afraid to Ask

Presented by Eric A. harris, Ed.D., J.D., Workshop Sequence VI diverges from our typical approach to risk management training. Rather than focusing primarily on specific risk issues in psychological practice and strategies that minimize them, this workshop will focus on ethical and risk management issues as they relate to the broader changes in psychological practice that we and other observers believe are and will be generated by the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

This workshop will provide what we hope will be a beginning conversation about a process that will be with us for a number of years–changes which present dangers and opportunities for the profession of psychology.
