OMIC presents risk management seminars and audioconferences throughout the year to provide ophthalmologists with a working knowledge of current professional liability issues and practical risk management information. Many of these seminars provide an opportunity to earn continuing medical education (CME) credits in addition to qualifying insureds for risk management discount on their professional liability premium.

OMIC also offers online risk management courses for ophthalmologists who are otherwise unable to join us for the live seminars and audioconferences. These interactive courses will allow physicians to earn CME credits and the risk management discount at their convenience.

Frequently Asked Questions contains the questions and answers to issues of broad interest to ophthalmologists and their staff. These questions and answers are often linked to OMIC risk management articles on the website.
