Case Studies in Condition Management and Documentation

Annually all diagnoses impacting the patient's care and treatment need to be evaluated with a plan of care, added as a visit diagnosis, and submitted on the claim.  To ensure this success, this course will give clinicians an understanding of what risk adjustment is, go over documentation requirements, and review case studies.  Accurate documentation and coding help create a more complete picture of the complexity of a patient population, improves the value of the problem list, and enables better management of a patient’s chronic diseases.

Target Audience

This course is intended for Family Practice, Internal Medicine, and Geriatric Physicians and other interested health professionals.

  1. Recognize best practice documentation guidelines
