The course will provide fundamental information needed to build and grow a practice focused on the management of pelvic pain. The course will review the challenges related to initially establishing a pelvic pain-focused practice, pearls for the maintenance of established pelvic pain clinics in both the academic and private practice settings and navigation of billing and coding for pelvic pain-related services.
