TIDBIT TUESDAY! Goals of Life Care Plan and Report Writing Shelene Giles, CEO FIG Education, Inc. What do they have? This question is answered by the medical diagnoses identified when reviewing the medical records. During the life care plan or nurse life care plan assessment step, valuable information regarding the client’s case is detailed. From the review of records, we gain insight into the client’s medical diagnosis, medical treatment, and outcomes or response to that medical treatment. A common definition of diagnosis is the identification of the nature of an illness or other problem by examination of the symptoms, or an act of identifying a disease from its signs and symptoms. According to the International Association of Rehabilitation Professional’s Life Care Planning Standards of Practice, the diagnosis is deferred to qualified professionals. According to the American Association of Nurse Life Care Planners Standards of Practice, the diagnosis is the actual or potential risks to an individual's health, safety, and barriers to health. This is including but not limited to interpersonal, systematic, and environmental circumstances. Without a medical diagnosis, the Life Care Plan does not exist. The medical diagnosis is the cornerstone of the Life Care Plan. The medical diagnosis can be divided into two categories – primary and secondary. A primary diagnosis is a condition established after the initial study which is chiefly responsible for the presenting medical condition. A secondary diagnosis describes the medical condition that co-exists during the initial medical condition. This may subsequently present following the initial medical condition. Oftentimes in the life care plan and nurse life care plan process, we are focused on the secondary diagnosis in the chronic, long term setting. #nurses #ot #pt #crc #doctors #casemanagement #legalnurseconsultant

Independent physicians and small practice groups emerge as essential pillars in the healthcare space. They tailor care with precision, alleviating bureaucratic burdens to prioritize patient needs. Yet, challenges persist: regulatory complexities, dwindling reimbursement rates, and looming physician shortages. In response, the Physician Association of California (PAC) rises, advocating tirelessly to fortify the resilience of independent practitioners and ensure uninterrupted access to superior care. What are your thoughts? Are independent physicians and small practices groups essential? https://lnkd.in/gwVNSE7Y #physician #healthcare #physicianassociation #independentphysician #smallpractice

🌟 Excited to Share: Top-Flight Behavioral Healthcare for All! 🌟 We are thrilled to announce the publication of an important piece on the Innovation in Behavioral Health (IBH) pilot program. This initiative aims to provide coordinated care for mental health conditions and substance use disorders, linking Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries with community-based providers. This comprehensive approach addresses both physical and mental health, as well as social factors like food insecurity and housing instability. A huge shoutout to Dede Kennedy and the NABIP Mental Health Working Group for their incredible efforts. This article was a collaborative effort, with invaluable guidance of the NABIP Consumer Bill of Rights. Two key highlights: • Expanding Coverage: Extending IBH to those with employer-sponsored insurance could increase access and save taxpayers money. • Integrated Approach: Patients will receive health screenings, outpatient care, specialist referrals, and ongoing monitoring, ensuring holistic support. Key Recommendations: • Consistent Care: Ensuring ongoing care to prevent relapse and maintain health improvements. • Adding Dental and Vision Care: Essential for full recovery and community integration. • Employer Marketplace: Expanding the IBH model to include those with employer-sponsored coverage would ensure more people benefit from this comprehensive care approach and could help prevent relapse by maintaining access to critical coordinated care. Go NABIP team! 💪 #MentalHealth #IBHProgram #NABIP #BehavioralHealth #CMS Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Modern Healthcare
