Evidenced-Informed Massage Therapy: The Research Supporting Massage Therapy is an Integral Component in the Affordable Care Act’s Essential Health Benefits Project funded by American Massage Therapy Association-WA Project Coordinators: Marybeth Berney, LMP, President, AMTA-WA Diana L Thompson, LMP, Past President, Massage Therapy Foundation Project Authors: Marissa Brooks, MPH, LMP Michael Hamm, LMP, CCST Benjamin Erkan, BA Diana L Thompson, LMP, Past President, Massage Therapy Foundation Kenneth Pfaff, HFWLS, HPCUHGS, Head Librarian, The Grotto Library Reviewers: Albert Moraska, PhD Tracy Walton, MS, LMT Ruth Werner, LMP 1 | Page Introduction: Massage Therapy in Health Care Massage therapy (MT) is defined as the intentional and systematic manipulation of the soft tissues of the body to enhance health and healing (Benjamin & Tappan 2004). MT is a profession with the intention of positively affecting the health and well-being of the client through a variety of touch techniques (American Massage Therapy Association Glossary of Terms). MT’s are trained in assessment, treatment planning, application of various massage techniques/modalities, communication/reporting with both patients and members of the health care team (Goldblatt 2009). MT use is widespread in the US, and is increasingly viewed as part of integrative health care. This is due to a rapidly expanding evidence base (Moyer & Dryden 2012, Moyer et al. 2009) and MT’s popularity for treating common health complaints. A 2007 National Institute of Health (NIH) survey of US adults found that MT was the the number one out-of-pocket practitioner-based expense and the second most commonly used practitioner-based CAM therapy -- nearly equalling the volume of chiropractic/osteopathic care (Barnes 2008). -

Brenneman, M.S.N., C.S., A.N.P., F.N.P. Written documentation for clinical management of patients within health care settings usually include one or more of the following components. - Problem Statement (Chief Complaint) - Subjective (History) - Objective (Physical Exam/Diagnostics) - Assessment (Diagnoses) - Plan (Orders) - Rationale (Clinical Decision Making) Expertise and quality in clinical write-ups is somewhat of an art-form which develops over time as the student/practitioner gains practice and professional experience. In general, students are encouraged to review patient charts, reading as many H/Ps, progress notes and consult reports, as possible. In so doing, one gains insight into a variety of writing styles and methods of conveying clinical information. -

Medicare Documentation by Dr
Medicare Documentation By Dr. Ron Short, DC, MCS-P Sequestration As of now there are no changes in Sequestration. The Medicare Fee Schedule will change April 1. If you are a non-par doctor, check your MAC website for the current fee schedule. Pay particular attention to the Limiting Charge. Revalidation Medicare is starting a new round of Revalidation. Anyone enrolled in Medicare before March 2011 will be revalidated. CMS expects to finish by March 2015. You have 60 days after receiving a request for revalidation to submit the required materials or you will be removed from Medicare enrollment. There may be fees involved this time. Indications are that you will be assigned a risk rating. Also, indications are that they will be looking at compliance programs this time. Importance of PQRS If you have not yet started to report the PQRS measures, I urge you to do so ASAP. The future of Medicare will be to pay for the condition, not for the services provided. The results from the PQRS measures will be used to determine the time required to resolve various conditions. What Makes Good Documentation? Your records must be legible. All entries must be dated and signed by the doctor. If notes are handwritten, they must be in black or blue ink. Entries must be written or dictated within 24 hours of the patient encounter. There must be no erasures or white-outs on the records. There must be no blank spaces. The patient’s name must be on each page or both sides of the page as applicable. -

The AOA Guide
The AOA Guide: How to Succeed in the Third-Year Clerkships Example Notes for the MSIII 2014 Preface This guide was created as a way of assisting you as you start your clinical training. For the rest of your professional life you will write various notes, and although they eventually become second nature to you, it is often challenging at first to figure out what information is pertinent to a particular specialty/rotation.This book is designed to help you through that process. In this book you will find samples of SOAP notes for each specialty and a complete History and Physical. Each of these notes represents very typical patients you will see on the rotation. Look at the way the notes are phrased and the information they contain. We have included an abbreviations page at the end of this book so that you can refer to it for the short-forms with which you are not yet familiar. Pretty soon you will be using these abbreviations without a problem! These notes can be used as a template from which you can adjust the information to apply to your patient. It is important to remember that these notes are not all inclusive, of course, and other physicians will give suggestions that you should heed. If you are having trouble, remember there is usually a fourth year medical student on the rotation somewhere, too. We are always willing to help!
