In Spring 2018 the ASES leadership has carefully evaluated several data management web-based systems that would allow ASES members to collect and analyze patient reported outcome data as well as promote the use and improvement of PRO’s in clinical care. After a thorough evaluation, the ASES leadership chose 2 systems:
Surgical Outcomes System™ and OBERD
.
Each data management system brings a set of valuable benefits – members are invited to select the system that best addresses their practice needs. SOS if available free of charge while OBERD is being offered at a deeply discounted price.

ABOS Launches Patient Website
|
|
The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (ABOS) has launched a new website that is geared towards patients. This website shows patients and the public why they should choose an ABOS Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon for their orthopaedic needs. You can get to this site in two ways:
The site features an animated video that chronicles the training involved in becoming an orthopaedic surgeon and the additional requirements and achievements required to become an ABOS Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon. There are also five videos of patients explaining the importance of choosing an ABOS Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon and talking about their orthopaedic care experiences. In addition, there are two videos that discuss the details of Board Certification and Maintenance of Certification (MOC). This patient-focused website will be a great resource for ABOS Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeons and their patients – the emphasis is on the value of Board Certification.

If you have any questions about the website, please call the ABOS at 919-929-7103
