The team at ClinicAid.ca is putting on a free noon hour webinar targeted towards Psychiatrists on March 30th, 2016. Their goal is to provide practitioners with the knowledge to improve their billing experience. The participating guest speaker is Amy Waldroff, the owner of MedSecure Billing Inc. and her knowledge of billing extends to physicians of every specialty, priding herself on her extensive knowledge and ability to spot billing errors while staying within the rules of the SOMB. Amy will be providing a talk on how to maximize Psychiatrist billing while highlighting some of the most common issues they encounter.

ClinicAid was developed out of the need for a good set of web-based tools for Health Care Providers across Canada to make their practices easier to manage. Directly integrated with the province's health services plan, ClinicAid is always accessible and easy to set up making physician lives easier.
