Most professional risk comes down to two lines: the boundary line and the error line. Complaints, audits, and claims overwhelmingly trace to one or the other — a doctor-patient relationship that drifted, or an error the practice's systems didn't catch. This category holds one focused hour on each: Professional Boundaries, the principles and high-risk scenarios of the relationship side, and Medical Error Management, the systems side — how errors arise in workflow and how a practice contains them.

The 1-hour format is the point. Where the ethics and medical errors categories carry the 2-hour deep dives, these are precision hours — built for renewals that name a small number of risk or boundaries hours, and for finishing an order at exactly the right total. Taught by Monte Horne, DC (boundaries) and John Riggs III, MBA, DC, DIANM (error management) — the founder's reviewer-chair perspective on one side, the malpractice-law instructor's systems view on the other.

Two Lines of Defense — One Hour Each

The courses stand alone — choose by exposure, or take both for the full 2-hour block.

The Boundary Line — Risk Management 201

Professional Boundaries, taught by Monte Horne, DC: the principles that hold the doctor-patient relationship in professional shape, the high-risk scenarios where lines blur, and the communication habits that prevent the misunderstanding before it starts.

The Error Line — Risk Management 202

Medical Error Management, taught by John Riggs III, MBA, DC, DIANM: how errors arise in clinical and administrative workflow, and the office systems, policies, and documentation that manage them — the systems view from the instructor who also teaches the law of what happens when they aren't.

New risk management courses are added as faculty release them — the course grid below always shows the current catalog.

What You'll Learn

• The risk factors that most commonly lead to complaints, audits, or claims — and which line they cross.

• Professional boundary principles and the high-risk scenarios where good intentions drift.

• How errors arise in practice workflow, and the office systems and policies that contain them.

• Communication and documentation habits that reduce misunderstandings and keep defensibility routine.

The Risk-Management Requirement — Where These Hours Count

Many state boards name ethics, professional boundaries, or risk management explicitly in renewal requirements — a set number of hours that must come from this subject area — and these 1-hour formats are built to answer small named requirements exactly, without paying for hours the checklist doesn't ask for.

Requirements differ by jurisdiction in hours, wording, and online-format allowances. Confirm exactly what your board requires in your state's guide in the full state directory before building your renewal plan.

The Hours That Finish the Order

At $20 each, these 1-hour courses are the catalog's precision pieces: top a 5-hour basket to the 10% threshold, or complete a 10-hour basket for 20% off. Build the full risk wing in one order — this pair, the ethics courses, and medical errors prevention total 8 hours at 10% off, and adding any 2-hour course clears 20%.

Risk Management & Professional Boundaries CE — Frequently Asked Questions

What are chiropractic risk management and professional boundaries CE courses?

Online continuing education in the two disciplines that most reduce professional liability: boundary awareness — the principles and high-risk scenarios of the doctor-patient relationship — and error management, the systems view of how errors arise and how a practice contains them. Both courses run 1 CE hour each, on-demand, with an assessment and instant certificate.

How is this category different from Ethics or Medical Errors?

Format. The ethics and medical errors categories carry 2-hour deep dives; these are focused 1-hour courses covering the same territory at precision length — built for renewals that name a small number of risk-management or boundaries hours, and for completing an order exactly. Doctors wanting depth take both: the 1-hour course frames the discipline, the 2-hour course fills it in.

Which course should I take first?

They stand alone — choose by exposure. Professional Boundaries (201) covers the relationship side: the principles and scenarios where the doctor-patient line blurs. Medical Error Management (202) covers the systems side: how errors arise in practice workflow and how to manage them. Both together total 2 hours and pair naturally with the ethics and documentation categories.

Do risk management hours count for my state?

Many state boards name ethics, professional boundaries, or risk management explicitly within renewal requirements — a set number of hours that must come from this subject area — and these 1-hour formats are built to answer small named requirements exactly. Requirements differ by jurisdiction in hours and wording, so check your state's guide in the CCEDseminars state directory to confirm what your board requires and whether online hours satisfy it.

How do discounts and certificates work?

Courses are $20 per credit hour — $20 each here — and discounts apply automatically in a single order: 10% off at 6–9 hours, 20% off at 10 or more. These 1-hour courses are ideal order-finishers: they top a 5-hour basket to the 10% threshold or complete a 10-hour basket for 20%. Each completion generates an instant PDF certificate with a permanent copy in your account dashboard. No promo codes.

State Approval and Licensing Reminder
CE requirements — including subject-area mandates, online-format allowances, and any in-person minimums — vary by jurisdiction. Review the online chiropractic CE guidelines page and contact CCEDseminars with questions about your specific licensing requirements before registering.
