Back Health Resource Advisory Board
As part of the multi-faceted collaboration, CSS and HealthPlexus will work on a comprehensive continuing education program aimed at healthcare professionals that will be delivered via HealthPlexus.NET and the Journal of Current Clinical Care.
"Our mandate is broad. We look at spinal issues from many different aspects; a better understanding of the natural history, the true value of treatment modalities, the place for surgery and emerging innovations, just to name a few. Our goal is to give the front line practitioners a picture of back care that is comprehensible, practical and based on the best available evidence. We will address any spine related topic, support correct practice and expose worthless or fraudulent techniques. Our Board has a wide range of expertise and experience, which allows us to speak with authority on a number of subjects. We have the opportunity to become a trusted source of information for the family doctor."
