Best bet is to contact your nearest EM residency or General Surgery residency, as surgeons also take ATLS. When I was a wee medical student, I heard that as long as you volunteered to be a "moulage patient" you could take the course for free, but you audited it, you didn't actually become ATLS certified... whihc is still cool cause you can do all the labs and sit through all the lectures.
BTW, is anyone out there an ATLS instructor? Our program is willing ot pay for us to become instructors... was wondering about this opportunity (CV buffer as well as $$$, but its only $200 each day you teach).
Q, DO
