This seminar integrates innovative business, managerial, administrative and clinical competencies necessary to put direct access into action for your practice. Providing proven strategies to diversify your practice’s reimbursement methods, this seminar will introduce physical therapists to the latest delivery models of practice and provide the underlying rational for recent and pending evolutionary changes effecting physical therapists and reimbursement. Combined with physical therapists’ existing clinical knowledge and skills, advanced differential diagnostic and medical screening competencies will provide an evidenced-based risk management scheme that will ensure safe patient management as well as mechanisms to integrate contemporary evidence into clinical practice so to secure better reimbursement in evolving pay for performance and cash-based paradigms. Advanced evidenced based medical screening for co-morbid medical conditions will be presented as related to current aspects of “best practice”. Acquiring the philosophy of the expanded role as a differential diagnostician and the marketing strategies required to promote and defend the autonomous model of care will be analyzed.
