Do you understand the requirements for social workers and chaplains regarding assessments and plans of care, including bereavement?  Do you know how crucial their documentation is in supporting hospice eligibility and Medicare payment?  With targeted probe and educate (TPE) implemented, there is greater need for strong documentation from social workers and chaplains.  This webinar will provide suggestions for using assessments and plans of care as the basis for quality, compliant practices.  Learn how to comply with bereavement requirements, strengthen documentation, and remain compliant when social workers and chaplains don’t make regular visits to the patient/family and are unable to make timely assessment visits.
