EVE Webinar with Jim Wilson, DVM, JD

Understanding the "Owner of Legal Consent" Doctrine and How to Achieve It in Your Practice

December 16, 2009, 7-9pm

This course is approved for 2 hours of CE credit.

State boards and the AVMA PLIT repeatedly have declared that the absence of consent forms is a serious problem for practitioners and for them as liability insurance carriers and regulatory agencies. In 2007, the AVMA adopted a policy that eliminated the words “informed consent” and replaced them with “owner consent. This webinar explains the differences between the two and provides examples of “user friendly” language currently found in legal documents drafted for veterinarians. The goal is to teach the effective draftsmanship and implementation of written consents in today’s practices.
