Clinical Forum
What is Clinical Forum?
The Clinical Forum (CF) is a bi-monthly, virtual event designed to connect physicians and advanced practice providers (APPs) across Intermountain Health’s geographic footprint. The goals of this series are:
- Share updates on clinical initiatives, programs, and best practices;
- Hear from members of Intermountain’s Enterprise Leadership Team;
- Answer caregiver questions; and
- Provide opportunities to claim Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits.
How can I participate in Clinical Forum?
The CF is hosted on the first and third Tuesday of each month from 7:30 – 8:30 a.m. Mountain Time by Intermountain’s Medical Executive Team (iMET).
