DESCRIPTION
This lecture can be applied toward the 8 C.E. credits required for the NCMIC 5% discount.

This focused 6-hour course, led by Dr. Kevin Sharp, provides essential strategies for compliant and effective clinical documentation. Learn about governing authorities (national, state, carriers), legal and best practice quality standards, and core documentation requirements for chief complaints, consent, visits, medical necessity, treatment plans, and radiology. Gain practical skills in setting goals, using outcome assessments, and constructing comprehensive treatment plans. The course also covers critical coding requirements for various services (initial exams, consultations, re-exams, subsequent visits, CMT, therapy, radiology), how to document medical necessity, and the nuances of maintenance care (ACA definition, MMI, outcome assessments). Finally, we address common coding issues, including time-based codes, pitfalls, modifiers, and frequently overlooked procedures.
