Playin' catch-up
Been very busy the past few weeks. Went to the HSS sports medicine symposium where I got to hear some of the top shoulder surgeons in the world speak fairly candidly about their ortho thoughts. Work has been going real well, I still am not a fan of the documentation aspect. On the train about to go underground... happy mothers day! more to come soon

BoDPT,
Physical therapy documentation was a drag for me too for many years - I was so terrible at one point one of my partners said to me...
"Tim, our documentation would never pass a Medicare audit!"I guess that was pretty shocking to me because I began a three-year oddessy to figure out how to quickly and accurately write down data and decisions.
In my opinion, physical therapists have a lot to contribute that can be communicated through good documentation.
I also believe that good documentation can drive clinical decision-making.
I am finishing a book on this subject that links PT clinical decisions with Federal payment policy.
The book will be called Bulletproof PT.
You can see some posts with my ideas at www.PhysicalTherapyDiagnosis.com .
