Third party payers such as CMS and private insurers believe that documentation is a tool that can drive good patient care. Therapists typically see documentation as a necessary evil that takes time away from patient care, but allows them to get paid.
In truth, both are correct.
Documentation has improved over the years, but capturing the essence of skilled patient assessment and treatment quickly and succinctly is an ongoing challenge. We are doctors now, thus more is expected of our profession than ever before.
How do we do it in a way that doesn’t take excessive amounts of time from patient care? That is the point of this course.
This 5hour video course presents real patient examples, hilarious interactive vignettes, shortcuts and skilled terminology handouts and flow sheets to help clinicians become more efficient and effective documenters.
