“I have attended many seminars, in the past two years, on the Guides 5th edition.
I must say that the Guides IQ is the most complete and most enjoyable. It has been said that if you want to go to sleep,
open and read the 5th edition. If you want to learn in an easy and relaxing manner, listen to Guides IQ. It is made for beginner and veteran alike.
It is the best program I have ever used.”

GuidesIQ TM
is the solution you have been looking for to master
the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, Fifth
Edition.
The AMA Guides are challenging to use. Most ratings are
inaccurate. The average difference between a correct and incorrect
rating for a single case is thousands of dollars. Physicians want to
provide accurate ratings, and attorneys and claims professionals
need to assure that reports and ratings are reliable. Learn how to
assess impairment correctly, increasing your success and that of
your organization. GuidesIQTM
training is always available. No travel
time, no travel costs, no lost productivity, and no hassle.
"On demand, high quality,
streaming Video presentations and resources on the Guides."

"You have developed a wonderful
and exciting learning tool for the AMA Guides!
I find your program to be a unique, time saving, user friendly,
cost efficient instrument for learning the appropriate use of
the AMA Guides. My concern for you is that for those that
subscribe to Guides IQ, they won't have to attend your seminars
anymore! Having attended your AMA Guides seminars in the past, I
can unequivocally state that Guides IQ is as informative and
instructive as attending one of your seminars!
For busy practicing physicians, the information presented is
straightforward, practical and allows one to implement the
lessons into a busy practice immediately!
We all lead extremely busy professional careers and personal
lives and I enjoy the fact that I can study, read and reflect on
the presented material in the privacy of my own home and at my
own pace. The cost of the program is minimal when considering
time spent away from my practice, and the cost of travel and
lodging when attending a "live" seminar.
For those who spend even a modicum of time performing medical
legal evaluations and impairment ratings and do not yet have it,
I would say "get it today!"

In the past, to learn how to use the Guides
you would need to travel to seminars, giving up endless hours of
your very precious time - and then weeks later you encounter a
rating issue and do not clearly recall what to do. Or you would need
to struggle on your own to interpret the Guides - often incorrectly
- since content may not be clearly defined. For over twenty years I
have performed and reviewed several thousands of impairment
evaluations, taught the AMA Guides to thousands throughout the
world, and have developed computer-based technologies. Now I have
merged these skills to provide you with the most unique resource
available to learn the Guides - an Internet based training program.
A unique resource you can access today.
Imagine the benefits of gaining access to over 60 educational
modules on the AMA Guides and the knowledge, skill and expertise to
be gained from the world’s leading expert on the Guides. These
numerous modules were designed for the specific learning needs of
physicians, attorneys, claims professionals and fact finders (judges
and hearing officers). After participating in GuidesIQTM you will
dramatically increase your ability to perform, review and manage
impairment ratings. You can return to these presentations again and
again during the coming year to revisit topics based on specific
case needs.
This resource is essential for your success and that of
your organization.
Start Receiving Those Benefits Today The training is equivalent to days of participation in seminars,
yet the fee is not. Nor is
there lost productivity or any travel costs. You do not have to give
up valued work days or treasured weekends to receive training.
Choose meetings where your primary focus is networking; this is the
most effective way to receive didactic training.
You will be very
pleased with this unique, superb approach to AMA Guides training -
training you need. All that is required is willingness to receive
high quality training, and a computer with high speed Internet
access and sound - resources that you most likely use every
day.

"GuidesIQ
makes sense to me for several reasons, the top one being
practicality. With GuidesIQ, I can complete my training
when it is convenient for me and where it is convenient for me.
As a member of a small practice with my spouse and father of
three, the flexibility this arrangement offers is greatly
appreciated. The continuing medical education for GuidesIQ is
jointly sponsored by the American College of Occupational and
Environmental Medicine (ACOEM) and this is great. The fees
are less expensive than an out of town conference which is also
appreciated. For me, other venues for this kind of training
don’t really make much sense anymore."

Low cost - high value -
The annual membership fee is modest, particularly in
terms of the number of hours of training you receive. In addition
you do not lose productive work time, nor do you incur any travel
costs. Consider what it costs you both financially and otherwise
to be away from your office for two to three days. Add to that
travel costs (transportation, lodging and meals) and seminar fees.
GuidesIQTM is a fraction of that cost.
-
Musculoskeletal and pain focus -
Focuses on the most important and challenging rating
issues. Musculoskeletal injuries of the spine, upper extremities,
and lower extremities represent 98% of all ratings. The
presentations provide you with a solid foundation in the use of
the Guides, a step by step approach to the chapters, and a practical
orientation based on presenting problems - such as low back pain,
shoulder injury, knee injury, etc. In addition, we continue to add
modules and case exercises.
-
Learning objectives achieved -
As a result of these presentations you will be able to
demonstrate the ability to accurately rate musculoskeletal
injuries and pain. You will be able to explain the appropriate use
of the Guides, rate impairment, and review ratings to determine if
they are accurate.
