REHAB IS EXPERT WELLNESS EXERCISE

Rehab is more then just handing out a home exercise program or having them do some exercises you learned in a class?  

As a Chiropractic Physician it is our duty to manage our clients and patients in all of the facets of Health and Wellness, and of course we all believe and feel that way.  Of course first we cater to the Acute Treatment Plan and current Differential Diagnosis but it is there that we lose our connection to the correction and restoration of function.  

Guidelines are set, Are you following them?

You see, Rehab is Therapeutic Exercise, but catered to restoring ones ADL,s short term and long term, whether layman or Athlete.  In order to do this we need to follow our family's (professions) guidelines, and utilize sound physiological principles, remembering that we are restoring function and stabilizing joints and subluxations.  

Documentation and Testing are Mandatory, are you Compliant?

You see in order to perform Rehabilitation in a State that allows you to perform and bill for such services require you to both, "Document" and show "Medical Necessity".  In order to this we cannot do a unit or two of 97530 or 97110 and expect to be paid more then the minimum or for longer then a few weeks.

Qualitative and Quantitative Testing is mandatory, for both, the patient and Doctor and the Insurance company to visualize and document "NECESSITY".  How can you or your patient see change and restoration of ADL's and function with out.  Let alone, prove insurance companies that your 6-12 month program should be paid for.  Insurance changes today require a little more effort, but better yet some fine tuning in your approach and "ICD-usage.

Lets make a stand and show why we are Health Cares best at handling the Natural Degenerative Process and its Musculo-skeletal populations.

You see, we: therapists, chiropactors, fitness trainers, massage therapists are all to be held to the same expectations.  Do it Right or Don't do it at all.
