Upcoming Audio-Conference
"Therapy Documentation: The Roadmap to Reasonable and Necessary"

Presenter: Cindy Krafft, PT, MS, COS-C
Tuesday, September 23, 2008
1:00 – 2:30 pm EASTERN

Course Description:
Criteria for determining the provision of appropriate therapy in Home Care have been a challenge to establish. Those who audit our services rely on "reasonable and necessary" but these guidelines lack objective standards. Although each patient is unique and should have an individualized plan of treatment, there are core areas of therapy assessment and intervention that should be addressed in all patient encounters. These items should be clear in the documentation of each visit as it is the primary way our “need” to be in the home is determined. This session will explore these core items and how expectations for therapy documentation can be set.
