The documentation burden can be tough on physical therapists, as I’m sure it is on many healthcare professionals. I recently had a conversation with a colleague about ways we can improve the quality and efficiency of our documentation, and this article by #WebPT came up. 5 great tips that can be utilized whether you have 10 weeks of experience or 10 years!

Thank you to Prompt Therapy Solutions Inc for the opportunity to guest blog about the evolving role and opportunity to add physical therapists to primary care teams (link to the article in the comments). I drafted the piece a couple of months ago, so it's missing a few newsworthy model additions and proposals where PTs are able and ready clinicians able to support success, such as in ACO Primary Care Flex and TEAM Models. But perfect timing to read this blog if you have been following these announcements! We hear a lot about the value of pharmacists in primary care and accountable care, and I wholeheartedly agree we that haven't scratched the surface of their potential contributions to value-based care. But I also know PTs are a crucial component to advanced primary care and accountable care success, and that practices and value-based care participants who recognize the opportunity and add PTs will benefit in reducing total cost of care, improving the efficiency of their practices, and optimizing longitudinal outcomes of their attributed patient populations.

What? Charge less for the same exceptional care?! Yes, indeed. Because it's the right thing to do. Intermountain Health has moved all Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Speech Language Pathology clinics in Utah away from a hospital designation to a clinic designation. This allows us to: -Lower costs for patients -Compliantly provide virtual care -SERVE OUR COMMUNITY! Really this is a no-brainer and I challenge all hospital-based practices to make the same move. Sounds simple? It. Was. Not. Simple. This involved significant clinical, legal, compliance, finance, IT, HR, operational, contracting, credentialing, enrollment, analytics, marketing, revenue cycle, and strategic considerations. That's ok. Let's do hard things to make healthcare more affordable! I am so proud of the team that made this happen!

Physical therapists, do you find documentation burdensome? I know I have. In my experience, here are the top EMRs that have made my job easier: 1. Prompt EMR 2. Kinnser (for home health) 3. Web PT Have you used any of these EMRs? Share your experience in the comments! #PhysicalTherapy #EMR #Documentation #HealthcareTechnology

How many physical therapists are actively working to enhance the reputation of their profession? What steps are individual physical therapists taking towards this goal? Globally, physical therapists or physiotherapists often do not receive the respect or compensation they deserve. Many people within the healthcare industry are unfamiliar with the scope and benefits of physical therapy. I recently came across a post about a hospital organizing an event where personal trainers educate doctors about exercises. This raises the question: why are physical therapists and exercise physiologists overlooked in such initiatives? It's disheartening to see healthcare professionals neglecting the expertise of those specifically trained in physical therapy. #PhysicalTherapy #Physiotherapy #Healthcare #ReputationBuilding #HealthProfessionals #GlobalHealth
