slide-45

Tip ips to k keep in in min ind…

  • Case notes should clearly state the TYPE

PE (telephone? face- to- face?) and the PU PURPO PO S E (Client request? Annual, semi- annual, monthly or 14-day follow-up?) of each contact made.

  • Case notes should not be repetitive or contradict previously

stated documentation. They should provide a fresh picture

  • f the client’s current condition.
  • What you write down can potentially be seen by the client,

caregiver, the DOEA , SCC, and other providers.

45

slide-46

Narratives must justify the time a and number

clai aimed

฀O ne line case narratives are not sufficient to justify units claimed. Ex Example 1 1

  • Not s

CG states they are satisfied with the services and no additional assistance is needed for the client/ CG . Client’s condition has remained stable. CM asked if client was able to talk, but Client was sleeping at the time of call.”

46

slide-47
SLIDE 47

47

Ask sk yourse self : :

  • 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?

  • Does the note support the need for the case

management services provided?

  • If not, why not?

Summary of Department of Elder Affairs 2015 Suggestions for Improvement

  • 1. Ensure Care Plan is cohesive, accurate, and updated in

CIRTS at least annually.

  • 1. Consistent documentation of the 14-day follow up with

clients to ensure receipt of new or increased services.

  • 1. APS Referrals-recording the participation of the API in the

discussion of the next best course of action when services are initially delayed or refused.

slide-58
SLIDE 58

Summary of Department of Elder Affairs 2015 Monitoring Findings and Suggestions for Improvement

  • 4. Ensure complaint policy meets all required elements set

forth in the Master Contract and time standards are established for the resolution of complaints. Minimum elements to be contained in complaint log: ❏ Date ❏ Nature of the complaint ❏ Determination of the complaint ❏ All actions taken to resolve the complaints’ dissatisfaction with services are to be recorded in the complaint log and should be recorded in the case notes.

slide-59
SLIDE 59

Observations from DOEA Monitoring & Quality Assurance Summit:

  • Focus to confirm the delivery of services and the

appropriateness of new or increased services.

  • Monitor for discrepancies between units provided according to

worker logs in comparison to units billed in CIRTS.

  • Confirmation of service and in-home assessment for high-risk

APS client within 72 hours of the referral. Proficiently recording the specific services and service dates for crisis resolving services provided within 72 hours of the referral.

  • Ensure you are following your agency's procedures of the

potential disclosure of personal health information. Report to your agency’s HIPAA Privacy Officer to determine if a violation of HIPAA occurred.

62

slide-63
SLIDE 63
  • If a client refused or if services were delayed the API must

be contacted within 24 hours to discuss the delay of

  • services. Document ALL contact attempts and discussions.

DETAILS, DETAILS, DETAILS!

  • Include response and participation from API.
  • Date the API was contacted, detailed reason for contact

service delay: which service? client refusal-why? were all APS recommended services ordered?

  • Case narratives should be clear to anyone reading the file.

Not just the case manager. Remember your file will be read by someone else (SCC, DOEA, and other CM’s)

Documentation of follow-ups

AT A MINIMUM:

  • On or before 14 calendar days to ensure services started

(call to client). Document if the client is satisfied with services and if they are receiving services as care planned.

  • Again after 31 days to determine if services are still

needed.

  • Before services are terminated, the client will be seen

face-to face by a Case Manager and a new 701 B must be

  • completed. If the CCE Lead Agency determines services can

be safely terminated, APS will be contacted to discuss client’s status 31 days.

  • APS will participate in a discussion of the client regardless
  • f the status.

64

slide-65
SLIDE 65

Continue or terminate services?

  • Before services are terminated, the client will be seen face-to face by a Case

Manager and a new 701 B must be completed. If the CCE Lead Agency determines services can be safely terminated, APS will be contacted to discuss client’s status.

  • APS will participate in a discussion of the client regardless of the status of the

case.

  • If both parties agree that the crisis resolving services can safely be terminated,

the client may be placed on a waitlist for additional services, if appropriate.

  • If both parties do not agree that services can be safely terminated a API

Supervisor and Case Manager Supervisor will jointly review the case to resolve the issue(s).
