Charlotte Regional Education Day Wrap-up

Thank you to everyone who came out last Thursday to the Harris Conference Center for our Charlotte Regional Education Day. Attendees and exhibitors participated in essential and timely educational and networking sessions.

The day’s sessions included active shooter training provided by Jonathan Frisk of the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD), expert advice on maximizing employee engagement and performance by the Leadership Therapist Scott Carbonara, and enhanced patient recruitment strategies by Stephen Fogg of Fogg Media. According to attendee Barbara Mabe, CMA, AAMA, of A Woman’s View, “It was one of the best conferences I have been to in a long time!”

NCMGMA held our annual business meeting where we elected our 2019-20 Board of Directors and Jane Lutz, 2018-19 NCMGMA president passed the gavel to incoming president Steve Parker of Curi – a Medical Mutual Co.
