Chronic disease is now responsible for 70 to 80% of all health care expenditure, yet most health professionals treat chronic disease the same way they treat communicable disease: with pills and injections. While this might temporarily relieve acute symptoms, it does not address the underlying cause of the chronic disease.
All 2021 exams will take place during "exam week" (November 27th to December 11th 2021), on a day of your choice, at a Prometric testing center in your area. Some country LM organisations might choose to run the exams as a "live" event. Registrations are made via LM country societies that partner with IBLM!
