I didn't feel that listing the content in this course as "Advanced" was really appropriate. It wasn't really ever clearly stated how to improve upon the notes that were given as bad examples of skilled treatment. This would be valuable information for beginner clinicians, but it too briefly touched on several points, without really delving into any of them in a way that would benefit an experienced clinician.

The first part of the course consists of very basic information that I assumed that almost all SLPs should know.The speaker brought up good critiques, but I was waiting for her to give better alternative. For example:- instead of using "tolerate" (which most of us have used), what would be a better way ?- it would have been helpful to provide positive documentation samples instead of just negative ones- I think we all know that treatment is not timed and no SLP in good conscience would charge a tx session after "3 mins" ; it would have been helpful if she had elaborated on that. Someone asked that question directly at the end, but I don't think an answer was provided.

Interesting topic and very applicable to my setting in acute care, however the information presented included many principles we should not be doing with examples of what not to do, but not many (if any) examples of quality evaluation and treatment. I enjoyed the way the presenter used illustrations such as the personal trainer example, however it was difficult to translate that example to dysphagia treatment. I would have liked to see more practical application to acute care specifically. I ended the presentation acknowledging that I do some of the things she tells us not to do, however I'm not quite sure how to make practical changes that align with her ideals.

by

In the examples of treatment notes, the notes provided much valuable info that is needed for good f/u care and the presenter did not make that clear when critiquing them. Additionally, she said all of the points that she thought were wrong with the tx notes, but she did not provide any examples of notes that she thought were satisfactory or good. Additionally, I found it confusing that she repeatedly said checking a pt for diet tolerance is a reassessment, but was she suggesting that the pt should be charged for another evaluation, rather than charged for a tx? I disagree that there is no skilled treatment involved in checking a pt for safe diet tolerance. I've had many nurses tell me a pt "swallows fine" but when I "observed the pt eating, the dysphagia was overt to me. My skill set enables me to ID that correctly.

I appreciate learning more about the 92526 code. Great information, and useful because so often I find myself simply observing a patient. It feels skilled, but I totally understand now that it’s basically a reassessment. That said, I would have found this so much more helpful if all the examples at the end had been rewritten in the spirit of “this clinician was trying but just not documenting correctly.” By simply pointing out error after error, I didn’t find it as helpful, especially with little snarky comments like “you know, there’s that.” I thought there might be a pro-instrumentation bias. I really actually liked this presenter, and I really like snark, but I was trying to learn a bit more. That said, I did learn enough to know I need to change how I use the 92526 code. So, you know, there’s that. Thanks for the session.

The presenter gave examples of how NOT to chart (which I greatly appreciated), but did not give specific examples of what "good" charting should look like. Test questions were not specifically discussed in the presentation, such as how often one can charge the CPT, and what specifically untimed means. She specifically states that guidelines are in place, but does not elaborate on this, only to say that you can't do 3 minutes or 300 minutes.

For an advanced level course, information presented was basic. No examples were provided for improving treatment notes to reflect "skilled and necessary." Important information noted by instructor was not provided (eg. minimum number of minutes associated with "untimed" dysphagia codes. Overall, instructor did a lot of telling us what NOT to do without providing examples of what TO do.

I would have loved the presenter to provide examples of highly skilled therapy notes as a contrast to the poorer notes that she critiqued
by
Member
on
August 28, 2019
I disagreed philosophically with the presenters strong opinion that we should be clear about what is treatment and what is evaluation and that we shouldn’t be evaluating on an ongoing basis. I think that our constant evaluation, critical thinking, and modification of cues and treatment, is what make us skilled clinicians. There was too much emphasis on “bad” treatments and notes without clear presentation of what TO DO in the speakers opinion. What would a well managed case look like specifically? What would good notes look like? I also think there was a big missed opportunity not discussing specific treatments. The messaging was “don’t do a bad job and be skilled and don’t do what other people can do.” But, there was little direction as to what a good treatment session would look like.

Although we are now presented with more EBP, it is often not represented in our daily work. For both new and seasoned professionals, this course is an excellent reminder of how we should continually assess our methods of treatment/evaluation and the billing aspects of those activities. This presenter is clear, concise and the information is quite practical. Thank you!

Most of the time was spent talking about what not to do vs giving examples of how you would specifically document what you would do. At the end instead of saying everything g that was wrong there should have been time invested into suggesting a correct way it could have been documented.
