In June, Dr. Daniel Choi, founding spine surgeon at Spine Medicine & Surgery of Long Island, was invited to speak at two national medical conferences: the AMA (American Medical Association) Annual Meeting and at the Becker’s Healthcare Spine, Ortho & ASC Conference. As a leading American spine surgeon, Dr. Choi is both a nationally recognized expert at the forefront of minimally invasive spine surgery techniques and an advocate for the viability of private practice.
Presenting Tools & Strategies For Private Practice Marketing
At the AMA Annual Meeting June 8-12, in Chicago, Dr. Choi had the privilege of sharing his expertise and experience in effective private practice marketing in his presentation, “Innovative Ways to Market Your Private Practice.” In contrast to major healthcare systems buying out private practices, Dr. Choi advocates for viable private practices that provide more patient-first care and physician support. He has represented the Private Practice Physicians Section within the AMA House of Delegates and has served on an AMA Reference Committee to shape policy.
“I’ve had the honor of serving as the voice of private practice within the AMA
for the past 4 years and Annual 24 was another great meeting to shape health policy that will promote competition in healthcare and ultimately, improve improve patient access to care,” he shares.
Diving Into Technological Advancements in Spinal Surgery
June also included the opportunity for Dr. Choi to participate in three events at Becker’s Healthcare Spine, Ortho & ASC Conference. The first as a panel member on the topic, “Endoscopic Spine Surgery, Augmented Reality, and Biologics” alongside Drs. Ying (Ken) Chen and Vinayak Belamkar. The second, speaking on the Federal IDR (Independent Dispute Resolution) Process to optimize practice revenues, and lastly, on a panel discussing “Transformative Tech in Spine, Ortho.”
Dr. Choi thanks Dr. Scott Becker and Jessica Cole for this Becker’s Healthcare event that brought healthcare entrepreneurs and independent physicians together.
