Mastering Functional Reporting

Great Seminars Online

Description

Physical therapists have a chance to shape the future of reimbursement and patient care NOW, but only if we use the appropriate resources to clearly demonstrate our ability to improve outcomes and decrease health care costs. CMS and insurance providers have begun demanding greater and greater accountability from rehabilitation therapists. Functional assessment, a core skill for physical therapists, is the key to addressing this call for justification of care.
This one-hour course provides information from national experts in the form of 3 real life patient scenarios (high functioning, average functioning and low functioning). Functional assessment options for specific patient conditions are discussed and therapists are introduced to a variety of functional tools. Correct application of these tools in the new functional reporting system introduced by CMS is stressed throughout the program.
We hope you will show this to colleagues and students to expand their repertoire of tools so that they can specifically address individual patient concerns and progress. This program is free of charge and we encourage you to use it and share it.
The purpose of this DVD is to provide an assessment of a variety of functional tools that can be used with older patients. We want to encourage therapists to apply appropriate functional tools to patient care in the most effective way possible and to be able to use the results in their documentation system
Great Seminars Online has sponsored this course and is distributing it without charge in the hopes that physical therapists will use some of this information to meet the challenge of providing even better health care now and in the future.
