On June 10, 2009, the Tennessee Justice Center will be presenting a CLE on handling TennCare appeals at the law offices of Hodges, Doughty & Carson, 617 Main Street, Knoxville.
The training will begin at 1:00 p.m. with sign in from 12:30 to 1:00 p.m. You will earn 3.5 hours of free dual credit CLE, and the only thing that you will be asked in return is to handle one TennCare appeal on a pro bono basis. In other words, you will receive free CLE and have the opportunity to serve the less fortunate-you just cannot beat it! Hope to see you there.
