slide-17
SLIDE 17

  • DOEA is closely examining files for:

 Client eligibility  Use of current forms

 The most current 701 B assessment must be used.

 Excessi ssive ve b billing  Repe Repetitive o

  • r du

dupl plicative do e docu cumentation  Billab llable v e vs. non-b non-billa illable ble actions  Reasons for face to face contact

49

OBSERVATIONS!

  • Case narratives must contain the

case manager’s observations of the client:

 What did you see in and around the home?  What did the client or caregiver say?  How did the client appear?

50

 Client satisfaction

  • Each time contact is made with the client, the case

narrative should document if the client is satisfied with their services.

51

slide-18
SLIDE 18

18

Note review:

At the end of your note, ask yourself the following: Does the note justify the time billed? Does the note justify the time billed?

 If not, why not?  What should be included or left out?  Did you record the appropriate time spent and units of services?

52

 Note review:

  • Proofread the case narrative. Check for

sp spelli elling ng and gramm grammar errors. Th ti t b l d h

  • The case narrative must be clear and have

the ability for someone else to read and understand the client’s situation.

53

Tips to keep in mind…

  • Case notes should not be repetitive or contradict

previously stated documentation. They should provide a fresh picture of the client’s current condition.

  • Keep in mind that what your write down can

potentially be seen by the client, caregiver or

  • ther providers.
  • Case narratives must justify units billed.

54

slide-19
SLIDE 19

19

AVOID “EXCESSIVE” BILLING!

  • One line case narratives are not sufficient to justify units

claimed. Example 1- Not sufficient

  • “Made monthly contact with the HCE caregiver”

E l 2 S ffi i Example 2:- Sufficient

  • “Made monthly contact with the HCE caregiver. CG states

they are satisfied with the services and no additional assistance is needed for the client/CG has remained stable. CM asked if client was able to talk. Client was sleeping when CM called. CM told CG to contact CM if any issues or concerns arise.”

cases; use correct abbreviations cases; use correct abbreviations

 Use appropriate, commonly-used acronyms

and abbreviations (as defined by your agency)

 Define the acronym or abbreviation in the

beginning of the narrative and then use acronym thereafter

67

 On Addendums to case narratives:

  • “Invalid if not within 29 days of date of

service documentation”

 When client is absent during monthly
