Ethics Workshop: How to Recognize the Top 10 Problem Practice Areas Facing Psychologists

Speaker:  Glenn Karr, Esq., expert lawyer in private law practice that advises on regulatory insurance law, health care law, corporate, business, non-profit, and employment discrimination.

Objectives:

The course is designed to help you avoid problems in the ten main areas that Glenn Karr has found increase the risk to psychologists for licensing board and lawsuit complaints. It is essentially a risk management workshop with a strong emphasis on ethical considerations.

You will learn how to recognize the top ten problem areas, which include: dealing with supervision issues, high conflict divorce issues, determining when a person is, or is not, actually a client, properly handling records issues, responding to subpoenas, avoiding multiple and problem relationships, dealing with duty to report and protect issues, and complying with HIPAA laws and rules. If time remains, there will be vignettes to discuss specific case situations.

This is a 4-hour workshop that qualifies as Ethics credits for psychologists. You will receive a 50 page plus handout which lists all of the topics and related legal and other documents covered in the course. The handout is indexed for easy reference in the future.

Glenn Karr is an attorney in private practice who handles insurance, general business and employment matters for clients, including therapists in solo practice and groups. He frequently deals with questions involving professional licensing board issues and defends therapists when complaints are made against them to their licensing boards. Glenn has been a lawyer for fifty years. During Glenn’s years of practice, he has served as the top legal officer of the fifth largest Blue Shield plan in the country, was on the Board of Trustees of one of the first HMO’s formed in Central Ohio, fought managed care companies for many years on behalf of psychologists while working with OPA, and has taught a law school course entitled, “The Regulation of Insurance”.
