Another Key Strategy to Use on 小猪视频 CARE
3. Visit management tips for success:
- Only apply for visits you can comfortably perform and document. Late documentation has consequences, including holding payment and a possible suspension from picking up more visits offered on the app.
- The visit is to be performed on the day it was scheduled. If the visit cannot be performed on the scheduled date, return the visit to the organization to allow it to be reposted for the new date.
- Go to your schedule and tap on the visit; use the 鈥淩eturn Visit鈥� button at the bottom right and complete the required fields. You can reapply for the new date.
- Communicate often with the organization. The Medicare Conditions of Participation (CoPs) require coordination of care among the disciplines involved.
- 小猪视频 CARE provides contact phone numbers and secure messaging from each visit. It is also possible from the 鈥淥rganizations鈥� tab in the three-line menu and in the patient profile under the 鈥淐are Team鈥� icon.
- Start your visit while you are with the patient. This may seem like an odd thing to say but there are many clinicians who do not start the visit on the device while with the patient.
- On 小猪视频 CARE, the 鈥淪tart Visit鈥� button enables electronic visit verification (EVV) and opens the visit note.
- Documentation at the point of care is the most accurate. 小猪视频 CARE has the 鈥淟oad Previous鈥� feature, making documentation at the point of care much easier.
- While completing your assessment, view the patient鈥檚 previous documentation and only update areas that have changed or need more detail. Compare and address the abnormal findings from previous visits鈥攈ave they improved or worsened?
- Documentation is to be submitted within 24 hours, as clinicians are to document at the point of care.
- Remember the first bullet point of this strategy. Late documentation can result in changes in your patient鈥檚 assessment, medication or treatment to be missed, which can potentially cause harm and is more detrimental than losing reimbursement. Committing to and prioritizing timely documentation will decrease your stress and increase your quality as a clinician, which boosts your value and star ratings on the app.
