Clinical Documentation IOP Introduction Clinical documentation is the process by which a patient’s medical or therapy process is noted down in terms of the diagnosis as well as the medication and healing process. At The PAX Campus, Intensive Out Patient, I have realized that clinical documentation has the following responsibilities like daily detailed group notes, based on my interactions: The prompt is: "What are your various documentation responsibilities at your site?" What are some of the various documents you complete at your site? group notes, Group summary by Therapist (trainee), Emails etc. First is that it enables the center to prepare in advance, whenever a patient is to be registered for an Outpatient program, I have realized that there is the need for the facility to understand whether they can handle the case successfully or efficiently. This, therefore, means that the referral source must send the information to assigned staff and hence they will review and give a feedback within a period of seven days. This procedure is referred to as Prior Authorization. What are your documentation responsibilities at your site in reference to Prior Authorizations? None,I am still in training. What do you have to document? Group Notes How do you get the information? By taking notes, shadowing Group Therapist. From whom? How is it to be written? Professionally Hence this type of documentation enables.

Unit 2 DB Responses 1. I enjoyed reading your post and I completely agree with your points. I would like to comment on one of your points regarding controlling the quality of care by using independent contractors. There are benefits to this initiatives, but there could be disadvantages too. The benefit of using teams of experts that you did not hire saves the organization costs associated with keeping full time employees, and patients are seen in a timely manner (In some cases). Many years ago, some departsments in a HMO that I work for had access problem such as patients having to wait 3-4 weeks when they need to see a specialist within the organization. No patient with ear infection or difficulty swallowing wants to wait for 3 three weeks to be seen. We were sending patients outside for urgent MRIs, CT scans, as well as to different specialists even though the company has capabilities to perform some of these functions in house. Apart from the rising costs this created, the level of patients dissatisfaction went through the roof as some patients get to their appointments and were told that referrals that were to be autofaxed to the outside vendors were never received. Some patients were sent away (no referral, no service). Our Utilization Management department was bombarded with approving these external referrals. We have improved, regrouped, and expanded. State of the art facilities were built and still continue to be built, More physicians, nurses, and support staff were hired, and our patient satifaction rate has grown greatly. For example, we used to send our deaf patients to John's Hopkins Hospital for cochlear implants which cost way over hundred thousand dollars, but that's done in house now 2. Quality of care is a very sensitive subject for every party involved in the healthcare system. They all have different perspectives, each looking at healthcare from a different lens. Patients see quality of care in the results of their treatment and whether their treatment was effective immediately. It can also be measured by how the provider thinks, If a provider were to say that a patient would heal in 2 weeks, the patient would check for the dulling of pain around 2 weeks after the visit. Providers, on the other hand, see quality of care as the credentials that they need to get in order to renew and keep their license to practice. Quality has its place in the healthcare system, with its positives and negatives. The positives are that it creates an air of steady improvement within competing facilities, and that it encompasses the entire scope of the patient's feelings and their care, such as the friendliness of staff to the patient, and number of services provided. The negatives are that the rating system could list quality as bad for a number of reasons that culminate in the spirit of customer service, and that constant high quality for providers means that their licenses are constantly being improved with items that fit the demanding.

Student discussion must be 200 original words and supported by academic, peer-reviewed references (at least 1). Whenever possible, please try to relate the course content to real-world applications from your work experience. I expect your message to reflect critical thought and an integration of the key themes and concepts from the readings. Baker, J. J., & Baker, R. W. (2014). Health care finance: Basic tools for nonfinancial managers (4th ed.). Sudbury, MA: Jones & Bartlett Publishers. 1. Introduction Financial statements are accounting reports prepared by the health care organization that represent a historical record of finances over a specified time period. These reports are used by investors as the basis for investment. The statements are prepared internally and checked by the company's auditors, the outside accountants used by the organization. What is a balance sheet? Pretend that you go to the bank asking to borrow money; the loan officer insists that you provide a list of your current finances. You write down everything of value, such as your checking and savings accounts, investments, house, and cars. You also write down your current debt, such as mortgage, car payments, and student loans. Next, subtract everything you owe from what you own. Now you have a figure called net worth. At the end of this process, you have created a balance sheet. Health care entities do the same thing to evaluate their credit worthiness. Companies typically create a balance sheet for a specific time period at the end of a year. The balance sheet shows the value of the items the company owns, the amount of debt, how much inventory is on hand, and how much money the company has to work with on a short-term basis. The income statement is a financial summary that shows the operating results of a company over a specified period of time, usually one year. The statement shows a company’s revenues, costs and expenses, and profits, which are obtained by subtracting all costs, expenses, and taxes from revenues. The statement of cash flow details the exchange of cash between an organization and the outside world. The cash flow statement has to reconcile the net effect of these flows with the difference in its cash holdings at the beginning and end dates of the reporting period. In health care, most revenue is earned from services rendered to patients. The organization receives payment after services are delivered. The payments come from various sources, including governmental sources such as Medicare and Medicaid or managed care sources. In managing a health care organization’s finances, the financial manager also must manage the organization’s expenses. Many expenses derive from salaries, payroll taxes, utilities, and so forth. The statement of revenue and expenses is the financial report that summarizes the revenue and expense transactions. The government programs are one source of revenue in health care organizations. These use a prospective payment system, i.

HOSPITAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM SOFTWARE There has been a significant change which has occurred in the past year or so. The healthcare industry, and particularly acute care facilities, in the midst of a flurry of merger and acquisition activity, has discovered as a whole they lack the ability to move quickly internally to assimilate new systems and to adapt to the changing environment. Quite inefficient and labor-intensive business processes are still being used. We have seen a rapid advancement in application of information technology to almost every sector of industries. The explosion of Internet growth fuelled by the so-called killer application - the World Wide Web, further accelerates this advancement. The Hospital Management System ultimately combine electronic copies of all documents created from admission to discharge with electronic reports, usually clinical testing or billing information, into a single electronic folder. They reduce labor, eliminate lost files and ‘loose sheets,’ improve access to authorized users, increase security and provide documentation for claims more quickly. This scenario has rendered the almost impossible task of integrating and seamlessly managing patient’s record across hospitals, clinics and between countries or states. Hospital Management System is a Medical office on-line. It is a custom web site for each physician’s office. Hospital Management System offers a web application that handles every task for a physician’s office. These tasks include billing, appointment scheduling, writing prescriptions, maintaining charts and notes, keeping lab results & X-rays, etc. In addition to providing access to the office staff and the physician, Hospital Management System also offers controlled access to others. Patients, pharmacists, drug company representatives, and other people could access Hospital Management System to perform various tasks that would otherwise have to be performed by the physician’s office. MD Offices that subscribe to Hospital Management System would benefit from increased productivity.

Hospital Management Project \"Simple Scenario\" We want to develop a comprehensive software product for XY Hospital, where several doctors are working together. There are several departments in the hospital, but a central administrationoffice is handling the patient appointment tasks. Most patients make an appointment before their visit. However, patients can walk in and can be treated if an appropriate doctor is available. On events, patients may change their visit schedule by calling. A patient who made an appointment but cannot appear should cancel his/her appointment in order to avoid a ‘no-show’ penalty. The appointment clerks in the administration office are handling all the appointments and the scheduling clerks generate ‘daily treatment schedules’ for doctors based on the appointment. The ‘daily treatment schedules’ include doctor’s name, patient’s information, nurses and treatment rooms for each treatment. Hence, doctors are seeing patients according to the daily treatment schedule. Once patients are treated by the doctors, the accounting office in the hospital is responsible for calculating the medical fee, mailing bills and receiving the payments. For the patients who do not pay for a certain period of time, the records of the patients with bad credit are sent to a collection agency. The collection agency is specialized for collecting the fee and enforcing relevant laws. In addition to the routine treatments, the hospital also provides emergency care. For an emergency care, patients do not need to make appointments. Emergency patients are seen by emergency specialized doctors, and later patients may be handed over to an appropriate doctor for further treatments. Read the simple scenario carefully for the project, and answer the following questions: Question No. 1 Briefly describe the objective of the project? [1 mark] Question No. 2 Identify all the stakeholders? [1 mark] Question No. 3 List the main functions that the project provides?

Using Hersey and Blanchard’s Situational Leadership Theory, explain what style of ledership Ramila Zamora should have used given the current situation. Why? Scenario for Question 4 Ramila Zamora looked forward to her recent promotion to management and was looking forward to her transfer within the large county hospital to another nursing unit. She was enthusiastic and hopeful about working together with other nurses to improve patient care through effective teamwork. She felt that she was well prepared to lead and supervise and was grateful for the opportunity. Ms. Zamora was provided very little information about her predecessor and knew less about her subordinates. She was stymied and baffled about the behavior of the nursing staff during her first team meeting. Ms. Zamora introduced herself to the group and with what she thought was great enthusiasm, distributed her agenda and immediately began to delegate tasks to the team members. She noticed that three of the five members began to look at each other and roll their eyes. As she continued to read the list of responsibilities, designating team members to the various tasks, two members got up and began pouring coffee and speaking softly to each other. Ms. Zamora was exasperated. She told them that the meeting was over and that she did not want to take any more time away from their jobs then was necessary. She returned to her new office feeling deflated and discouraged. She asked herself several questions. What went wrong? Why did the nursing staff treat her so rudely? Had she made a grave career mistake? What should she do? .

Read the scenario and answer the questions that follow: Bobby Yurkanin’s 84-year-old father had Alzheimer’s disease. For nearly nine years, Bobby lived with his father, meeting the elder Yurkanins’s needs 24 hours per day, seven days per week. In the years prior to his father’s diagnosis, Bobby had also cared for his mother through her struggle with terminal cancer. Friends describe Bobby as a dedicated caregiver who patiently helped his father through episodes of wandering, combativeness, sudden mood swings, and public disrobing. Neighbors and friends reported occasionally hearing Bobby yell or curse at his father in frustration, but nobody had witnessed physical violence. Those familiar with the Yurkanin family history claim that Bobby, an only child, experienced a difficult and traumatic childhood. His father was an alcoholic who reportedly abused Bobby, his mother, and his grandmother. In addition, Bobby’s mother suffered frequent psychotic episodes related to a mental disorder. Bobby eventually left the tumultuous home, finished college, spent time in law school, and started a paralegal business. In the late 1990s Bobby returned home to care for his ailing mother. Following Mrs. Yurkanin’s death, Bobby and his father sold their New Jersey home and moved to a condominium in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. It was on a visit to a Florida beach that Bobby witnessed another episode of his father’s public disrobing. Although witness accounts vary, it appears that an exasperated Bobby dragged his father into waist deep water in an attempt to put his father’s shorts back on. The elder Yurkanin fought Bobby and during the struggle the 84-year-old man’s head went under water. Witnesses report that Bobby eventually pulled his father out of the water but are unsure whether or not Bobby (a skilled life guard) performed CPR once on the sand. However, many witnesses report that Bobby resisted any calls to 911 and refused an ambulance for his father. The next day, Mr. Yurkanin was pronounced dead. An autopsy listed drowning as the cause of death. Several days later, Bobby was arrested on charges of first-degree murder. Discuss this case in relation to elder abuse and neglect, parricide, eldercide, and the cycle of violence .

Then draft a 3–4 page business memorandum to Linda Hoff, Stanford's CFO. In your memo, codify your findings and interpretations from the horizontal and vertical analyses and the level of alignment between the company's fiscal management and its strategic direction. Include an Excel spreadsheet as an attachment to the memo. In this memo you will: Review the year-over-year variances contained in the audited Stanford balance sheets and income statements, which are contained within the provided Week 5 Assignment Spreadsheet [XLSX] for fiscal years 2015 through 2018. You'll be expected to pay particular attention to the negative variances (color coded in "red") that you believe to be potentially the most impactful to Stanford. Speculate as to the reasons for the negative variances. Examine the common size balance sheets and income statements looking for abnormally low or high ratios based on what you know about the line item and what you observe in the data for the other fiscal years. Look for patterns in the line items over time (2015 through 2018) and identify any unusual findings that may need to be examined further. Make a judgement regarding the alignment of the organization's fiscal management with its strategic direction of the firm. Fiscal management is based on your horizontal and vertical analyses. The strategic direction is based on the vision, mission, and strategic priorities of Stanford. Purpose The purpose of this assignment is to familiarize you with financial statements, the need to align the financials with the strategic direction of the firm, and the process of performing a horizontal and vertical analysis of a company's balance sheets and income statements. The Scenario You're a Healthcare Administration Fellow at the prestigious Stanford Healthcare. You have been rotating through the various departments over the past 9 months and now you have the honor of working under the mentorship of Linda Hoff, Chief Financial Officer. Stanford Medicine includes Stanford Healthcare, Stanford Children's Hospital, and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford. This organization uses an integrated approach to strategic planning, which incorporates jointly agreed upon strategic priorities from its various entities. It also ensures a high degree of congruency in strategic focus by each entity. Before outlining the strategic priorities for Stanford Medicine, it is important to take note that a firm's directional strategy is comprised on three separate yet interwoven components: vision, mission, and goals (or, in this case, priorities). Armed with this knowledge, you have taken the necessary step and located and familiarized yourself with the vision, mission, and priorities of Stanford Medicine. Below is what you found. When examining a company's financials, it is prudent to keep the directional strategy of the company in mind. After all, in order to advance many strategic priorities, which include fulfi.

Allstadt The fracking that's going on right now is the real wake-up call on just what extreme lengths are required to pull oil or gas out of the ground now that most of the conventional reservoirs have been exploited—at least those that are easy to access. First of all you have to look at what is conventional oil and gas. That was pretty much anything that was produced until around 2000. It's basically a process of drilling down through a cap rock, an impervious rock that has trapped oil and gas beneath it. And once you're into that reservoir— which is really not a void, it’s porous rock—the natural pressure of the gas will push up the gas and oil. Now what's happened is that the prospect of finding more of those conventional reservoirs, particularly on land and in the places that have been heavily explored like the US and Europe and the Middle East just is very, very small. And the companies have pretty much acknowledged that. All of them talk about the need to go to either nonconventional shale or tight sand drilling or to go into deeper and deeper waters or to go into really hostile Arctic regions and possibly Antarctic regions. Both the horizontal drilling and fracturing have been around for a long time. The industry will tell you this over and over again—they've been around for 60 years, things like that. That is correct. What's different is the volume of fracking fluids and the volume of flowback that occurs in these wells. It is 50 to 100 times more than what was used in the conventional wells. The other [difference] is that the rock above the target zone is not necessarily impervious the way it was in the conventional wells. And to me that last point is at least as big as the volume. The industry will tell you that the mile or two between the zone that's being fracked is not going to let anything come up. But there are already cases where the methane gas has made it up into the aquifers and atmosphere. Sometimes through old well bores, sometimes through natural fissures in the rock. What we don't know is just how much gas is going to come up over time. It's a point most people haven't gotten. It's not just what's happening today. We're opening up channels for the gas to creep up to the surface and into the atmosphere. And methane is a much more potent greenhouse gas in the short term—less than 100 years—than carbon dioxide.

Questions: Montag is most powerfully affected by fire Answer choices: intensity destructiveness capriciousness duality unpredictability The paragraph which begins “How long he stood” contains all of the following EXCEPT hyperbole metaphor onomatopoeia sensory imagery From the two paragraphs which begin “There was a silence” and “And then voices began,” it can be inferred that the society from which Montag came is characterized by its uncomfortable silences philosophical discussions mindless chatter constant bickering curiosity about the world Granger’s first words and actions are characterized by trepidation civility irony pretense joviality The police decide to chase a scapegoat because They think this will force Montag to turn himself in Their commanding officers will not accept failure The scapegoat actually poses a greater threat than Montag does They know the Hound has the need to capture a victim They want to sustain the attention of their viewing audience .

Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow. Courage to Speak “Any volunteers?” Ms. Chavez scanned the class. Ming slouched farther down in her seat. “Come on now, you’ll all have to interview someone sometime this year. No one wants to go first? Okay, I’ll just have to choose someone.” I am an ant, she won’t notice me, Ming thought. “Ming, why don’t you go first? Come on up and pick a name out of a hat.” Ms. Chavez shook the slips of paper around in the hat. Ming dragged herself up to the front of the room. She drew out a slip of paper. “Mrs. Russo,” Ming whispered hoarsely. “Great, the librarian! You’ll have a fine time interviewing her. Now just remember to ask her the questions we came up with, record her answers, and then you can present them next week.” Ms. Chavez cheered as Ming quickly returned to her seat. Ming knew Mrs. Russo was very nice. She had helped Ming use the computer to find science articles last week. Ming knew she could interview Mrs. Russo. It was the class presentation afterward that she dreaded. Even back home in China, Ming had hated speaking in front of the class. Here in the United States, it was worse. She spoke slowly and with a thick accent. Ming sighed and packed up her books. She had a free period next, so she might as well get the interview part completed. Ming found Mrs. Russo in the reference section of the library. “Hi, Ming!” Mrs. Russo said cheerfully. “Need more articles on chimpanzees this week?” “No, I need to interview you,” Ming said quietly. She suddenly felt shy. Why had Mrs. Chavez given this assignment? “Oh, an interview for what? The school paper?” Mrs. Russo asked. “No. For Mrs. Chavez’s ESL class,” Ming whispered. “Sure, ask away! I’ll just keep stacking these books if you don’t mind,” Mrs. Russo replied, turning to the shelves. Ming felt relieved. It was much easier to interview Mrs. Russo’s back. “Are you American?” Ming asked. “Yes… I mean, I was born in Argentina, but I moved here when I was 25. I became an American citizen. Most of my family still lives in Argentina. My husband and our children live here. I am like all Americans, multicultural,” Mrs. Russo laughed. “Is English your first language?” Ming asked. “No, Spanish is,” Mrs. Russo replied. “What does the American Dream mean to you?” Ming asked. “In Argentina, my husband and I couldn’t make enough money to support our family. We knew that we could in the United States. We also knew we’d have to give up being near our family. The American Dream is not perfect. It takes courage and sacrifices, but it is worth it.” Mrs. Russo turned to Ming. Ming smiled. It takes courage not to act like an ant. She understood why Ms. Chavez had given this assignment. She could find the courage to share what she had learned about Mrs. Russo in front of the class. 1. Why does Ming slouch down? (1 point) She doesn't want to get chosen first. She doesn.

Read the passage below and answer the 4 questions at the end. Dorothy’s Way IN THE CLASSIC STORY OF “THE WIZARD OF OZ,” DOROTHY ILLUSTRATES A NEW KIND OF LEADER. SHE INVITES HER FRIENDS ON A JOURNEY, HELPS THEM DISCOVER THEIR GIFTS, ENCOURAGES THEM AND WALKS WITH THEM RATHER THAN INSISTING ON BEING UP FRONT. SHE DOESN’T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, BUT SHE GETS THEM TO THEIR GOAL. One of my favorite memories as a kid was watching the movie The Wizard of Oz on television. It came on every year. We would pop popcorn and sit around as a family watching Dorothy, the scarecrow, the tin man and the cowardly lion leave the munchkins in the Land of Oz and make their way to the Emerald City. I still enjoy the movie. It’s a classic. Today, however, I watch it through a different lens. I sat with my own kids a few years ago and learned all kinds of new things from Dorothy—as I watched the film from a leadership perspective. (I know it sounds crazy, but I seem to find leadership principles in almost every movie I see, including Dumb and Dumber and Napoleon Dynamite!) This time, my leadership discovery came from a very ordinary girl from Kansas who would not claim to be a leader at all. As I observe trends in our culture, it seems to me that there is a cry for a new kind of leader today. We have moved through various leadership styles over the last fifty years, and many of them can be seen in this classic movie. Reflect on the characters in the movie for a moment, and note the three kinds of leaders in it: 1. THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST She has her cronies, but they follow because she forces them to do so. She leads from manipulation or coercion. In fact, when she melts, her followers celebrate. 2. THE WIZARD OF OZ He is the all-powerful leader who leads through intimidation and superiority. He is all-wise and all-powerful—the kind of leader we all tend to imagine is the best one for the job. 3. DOROTHY She is an unlikely leader who doesn’t have all the answers but invites her friends on a journey, helps them discover their gifts and walks with them rather than insisting on being up front. At first glance, Dorothy appears all wrong as a model of leadership. I am certain she never felt like she was a leader. She doesn’t fit the gender stereotype, and she’s quite young. Instead of being a person who has all the solutions and knows exactly what to do next—she is herself on a journey, a seeker, often bewildered and vulnerable. Yet she is determined to get her team—made up of a scarecrow, a tin man and a cowardly lion—to the wizard, where they can find what they’re looking for. Armed with this resolve, she walks down the yellow brick road on a journey of discovery with her newfound friends. No one expects her to have all the answers. They don’t want a “sage on the stage,” but a “guide on the side” to help them reach their goal. Let’s contrast Dorothy with the Great Wizard himself. Frequently, many of us avoid leadership positions because we hold an image of a leade.

Organizations are already collecting vast amounts of data from a myriad of sources. Why should they add location data to the analytical mix? The most common uses of analytics and reporting are based on business data. Location information doesn’t get much attention. But all business has to happen somewhere. The Internet of Things has created connected cars, connected people, and analytics at the edge, and this technology is making business rethink some use cases. Location will be an important aspect for these kinds of things. Driverless cars, Uber, drones—all are evolving, and real technologies and business models are being built around them. These all rely on location as an important facet, thus making location an important aspect of business analysis and business data that organizations need to pay more attention to. 2. What business issues have you seen being solved by using location analytics? Some are covered above. Add to that, business scenarios where location is a primary factor, such as property insurance companies trying to determine the price of insurance based on location, healthcare organizations trying to understand the types of services needed based on the demographic data of a city or location, or new transportation companies, like Uber and Lyft, analyzing and understanding the use of their servic.

Read the New Vice President case and respond to the following questions: 1. What is the major problem facing Treeholm? 2. What would you do if you were in her position? 3. Would a man have the same experience as Treeholm? 4. Are any of your predictions about her management style holding up? 250 WORDS CASE 13 Selecting the New Vice President Note: Please read only those parts identified by your instructor. Do not read ahead. Part A When the new president at Mid-West U took over, it was only a short time before the incumbent vice president announced his resignation. Unfortunately, there was no one waiting in the wings, and a hiring freeze prevented a national search from commencing. Many faculty leaders and former administrators suggested that the president appoint Jennifer Treeholm, Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs, as interim. She was an extremely popular person on campus and had ten years of experience in the role of associate vice president. She knew everyone and everything about the campus. Treeholm, they assured him, was the natural choice. Besides, she deserved the job. Her devotion to the school was unparalleled, and her energy knew no bounds. The new president, acting on advice from many campus leaders, appointed Treeholm as interim vice president for a term of up to three years. He also agreed that she could be a candidate for the permanent position when the hiring freeze was lifted. Treeholm and her friends were ecstatic. It was high time more women moved into important positions on campus. They went out for dinner to their every-Friday-night watering hole to celebrate and reflect on Treeholm's career. Except for a brief stint outside of academe, Treeholm's entire career had been at Mid-West U. She started out teaching introductory history, then, realizing she wanted to get on the tenure track, went back to school and earned her Ph.D. at Metropolitan U while continuing to teach at Mid-West. Upon completion of her degree, she was appointed as an assistant professor and eventually earned the rank of associate based on her popularity and excellent teaching. Treeholm was well liked, and she devoted her entire life, it seemed, to Mid-West, helping to form the first union, getting grants, writing skits for the faculty club's annual follies, and going out of her way to befriend everyone who needed support. Eventually, Treeholm was elected president of the faculty senate. After serving for two years, she was offered the position of associate vice president. During her ten years as associate vice president, she handled most of the academic complaints, oversaw several committees, wrote almost all of the letters and reports for the vice president, and was even known to run personal errands for the president. People just knew they could count on her. Part B Treeholm's appointment as interim vice president was met with great enthusiasm. Finally the school was getting someone who was “one of their own,” a perso.
