Guest guest Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 - I continue to be baffled that after years of education from the insurance companies, the APTA and on local levels (cont ed, etc) many therapy companies don't want to realize that they are committing insurance fraud if they see 2 patients every 45 minutes and charge 3-4 one-on-one CPT codes for each patient. Additionally, one needs to treat 53 minutes to be able to charge 4 units. So, the many companies you're referring to are not kosher on 2 fronts. I wouldn't want to be associated with them. Now, if they charge group codes (non one-on-one) for all these treatments, they are complying with the rules, but those charges and the insurance reimbursement and the quality of care is significantly lower.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 An outpatient rehab agency in Western PA attempted to waive patient co-pays for PT and almost lost their reimbursement contract with a major health insurer. Big stink! Insurer claimed that the consumer is obligated to the contract, and this includes paying the PT the deductible. It wasn't that the insurer was looking out for the PT. Rather, insurers know that as deductibles rise, the burden will be borne by the consumer...and the consumer will opt for less treatment sessions. If there is not pushback, get ready for telerehab and one day/week sessions.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I am going to jump in very late to this discussion but productivity is an issue that has been a focus of much of my work over the past 20 years. Although there are many ways to monitor productivity, I am almost always more concerned about facilitating therapist behaviors that can safely and ethically lead to higher quality and productivity. In review of some things that are available on this subject of facilitating productive clinicians, I ran across an old article from 2002 that I think is relevant - even now. Here it is - comments are welcome. Please feel free to share as you see fit. A Manager's Perspective Getting More Productive R. Kovacek, PT, MSA Productivity – it is such a thorn in our side. We hear about it at work, online and in our publications. Our world would be so much better if we did not have to think about productivity. Of course, we'd have a lot of extra time to think about other things because, most likely, we would not have jobs or patients or reimbursement. The reality is that the concept of being productive is valid and necessary in our world. Let's define our terms first. Productivity is simply getting more work done. One of the key issues that we all need to struggle with is " More of what? " At least part of that answer will focus on getting more of the " things that pay our bills " done. It is not the total answer, many non-billable things that we do every day are very important to do, too. Assuming that at least part of the productivity equation includes treatment activities (a pretty good assumption, me thinks), here are some of the most important things to do to get more productive: *Schedule more* The single most effective way to LIMIT your productivity is to limit the effectiveness of your scheduling paradigm. In almost every clinic that I have reviewed related to productivity, therapists who struggle with productivity, also struggle with scheduling enough patients to make it work. *Schedule differently* It always amazes me that after so many years of training and education, therapists often ignore what they learn about patients in their evaluations and act as if all patients are the same. Not every patient needs the same amount of time or attention. Many patients can proceed with an excellent plan of care with less than 100% one on one therapist care. Many good therapists can juggle more than one patient in the clinic at a time – depending on the type of patients involved. After evaluating each patient, decide which ones absolutely need one on one and which ones don't. Schedule accordingly. Many therapists also feel that good care requires at least an hour or some other arbitrary time frame to provide good care. Longer therapist sessions are just that - longer. They may or may not be better. We each have the background and expertise to determine the preferred model of care rather than simply fall into a pattern of " one patient every X minutes " . *Improve attendance rates* If you schedule 20 patients for therapy, but only 10 actually get therapy, you may be working at 50% capacity. One of the most effective means to get more done is to work with your patients to remove barriers to attendance and provide incentives to attend. Let's hope that in most cases, the inherent value of the functional improvements of therapy itself will be incentive enough. But we know that that is not always true. Make sure your patients know the importance of showing up for therapy. Make sure your support staff encourages attendance at every opportunity. Talk to patients who miss a session about the importance of consistent involvement for maximal improvement. Measure and monitor your attendance rates. Make it a priority. Wouldn't you rather have to schedule 11 patients so that 10 attend versus scheduling 20 to get 10? That is the difference between a 90% and a 50% attendance rate. Besides that, what would you do if all 20 patients showed up some day? * * *Learn to code correctly* If you want to be more productive, make sure you are tracking and counting your work correctly. We track our productivity and usually get paid according to our procedural coding – usually via the CPT system. Learn it well. Make sure you understand how to code and that you are coding correctly. I use an audit tool produced by CBL-Solutions to track coding and documentation for all therapy sessions. If you are not sure you are coding correctly, find a course or other source and get up to speed as soon as possible. Correct coding is a good financial move but it also helps you make sure you are in compliance with the reimbursement and other requirements that the government and third party payers have. *Learn to document efficiently and completely* Documentation is not fun, but we all have to do it – and do it well. We also should do it efficiently, with as little pain and effort as possible. Find a course or a mentor to help you document better. Not fun but not terribly hard either. *Treat and teach your patients well* High productive therapists not only treat their patients efficiently, they also realize that there are many things that patients and their care partners can and should be doing as part of therapy and outside of therapy on their own. It often takes new therapists some time to decide what they need to do themselves and what they can show the patient. This probably depends on the patient to some degree also. Think about how much you really need to do yourself and what you can teach – I think you will be surprised. *Use supplemental materials* Handouts, educational tapes and other informational materials are often helpful. They don't replace the therapist but they really can be excellent supplements to what the therapist does in patient education or even demonstrations of various activities. As the therapist, you will still need to assess the patient's understanding and retention of the information or their skill in performing the activities. Research the supplemental materials that your clinic already has and investigate what else is available. *Develop an attitude of flexibility* I routine get requests for the perfect scheduling algorhythm or model. I'd love to give you all one, but the reality is that, like so many things in life, it depends. Even in clinical approach, we know that " what works " very much depends on the specific patient. We adjust " what works " with each patient. That is part of why all that education and training is needed. We need to do the same thing with our schedule and approach to productivity. *Maintain high standards of quality and quantity* This may seem so basic that we don't need to say it, but we can NEVER trade quality for quantity. However, we need high standards of both. *Understand the relationship between quantity and quality* Quantity is how much you do. Quality is how well you do it. They are not mutually exclusive; however, there is a point where more volume can degrade quality. You need to know that point for you. You also need to work to raise that threshold so you can provide the best care to the most patients in the most cost effective and clinically effective manner. A good place to start to analyze your own productivity behaviors is with a self-assessment called The Productivity Quiz – available for free downloading at www.PTManager.com <http://www.ptmanager.com/>. It is time for us all to get serious about getting our work done.
