Why Neurologists Choose AAOPM for NCV/EMG Training

As a neurologist, you already understand the clinical significance of electrodiagnostic findings. This course focuses on the practical skills you need to bring NCV/EMG testing in-house, improving patient convenience and practice efficiency.

  • Hands-On Equipment Training: Master the practical operation of NCV/EMG equipment, electrode placement, and troubleshooting techniques often not covered in residency.
  • In-Office Integration: Learn to efficiently integrate electrodiagnostic testing into your neurology practice workflow for same-day results and treatment planning.
  • AAOPM Certification: Receive your certificate of completion documenting hands-on training competency for credentialing purposes.
  • Retain Patient Revenue: Stop referring electrodiagnostic studies out. Capture this revenue while providing more convenient care for your patients.
  • Practical Focus: Designed for physicians who know the neurology but need the practical hands-on training to perform testing efficiently and confidently.

FAQ

NCV/EMG Training FAQ for Neurologists

Common questions about NCV/EMG training for neurologists.

While neurologists have extensive clinical knowledge of neurological conditions and understand electrodiagnostic findings, many residency programs provide limited hands-on equipment training. This course focuses on the practical aspects: efficient equipment operation, electrode placement techniques, signal optimization, workflow integration, and billing protocols. The goal is to help you bring NCV/EMG testing in-house rather than referring patients to outside facilities, improving both patient care and practice revenue.
Our NCV & EMG Training Course is completed in 2 days. You'll receive your AAOPM Certificate of Completion immediately after successfully finishing the hands-on training and didactic components. Given your neurology background, you'll be well-prepared to begin performing in-office studies upon returning to your practice.
This course awards an AAOPM Certificate of Completion rather than CME credits. The certificate documents your hands-on training competency in electrodiagnostic procedures and can be used for insurance credentialing and hospital privileges documentation.
NCV/EMG testing typically generates $300-800+ per study depending on the complexity and number of nerves tested. By performing testing in-office rather than referring out, you retain this revenue while providing more convenient care. With proper scheduling, many neurologists perform multiple studies daily, significantly increasing practice revenue while improving diagnostic efficiency.
You'll need an NCV/EMG machine, surface electrodes, needle electrodes, and related supplies. During the course, we provide guidance on equipment selection, vendor relationships, and financing options. We also discuss space requirements and exam room setup for efficient electrodiagnostic testing.
Yes. As a physician, you can train and supervise technicians to perform NCV studies under your direction. This allows you to focus on EMG needle examinations and interpretation while scaling your diagnostic services. The course covers supervision protocols and how to structure your electrodiagnostic workflow for maximum efficiency.
AAOPM provides ongoing support including access to our physician community with 100,000+ members, clinical resources, equipment vendor contacts, and faculty consultations. We also offer preceptorship training at your practice if you want additional hands-on guidance when setting up your electrodiagnostic services.
