Practice Intel:
Suggested Templates
Our AI technology reads each sentence in the documentation and attempts to identify whether or not the key components of a compliant note are present. In order to assist you in understanding how to ensure all of the components are present in your documentation, we have included a template for the subjective and assessment section of each note below. This template will help you or your clinicians understand the types of information that our technology is looking for in your documentation.
These are designed to prompt the therapist to place the proper information in the note. If the templates are not filled with the proper compliant content based on the specific patient, the Note Audit Score will still be scored low.
The bolded information is required. The non-bolded information is not absolutely required but is best practice.
