Course Description: With the one-year anniversary of Emergency Remote Services (ERS) now behind us, join us as we celebrate last year’s accomplishments and discuss various challenges while navigating through this new and added component to the CBAS benefit together. During this session, CDA and CBAS providers will join forces to examine last year’s data trends, review and clarify ERS policy, reflect on lessons learned, and share ERS best practices.

After this session, attendees will be able to:
1. Understand ERS data trends over the past year
