COURSE DESCRIPTION: 

Do you struggle to write your clinical casenotes in a time-efficient manner? If so, this course is for you. Recent licensing board requirement updates, ethical guidelines, and third-party regulations make it more challenging than ever for therapists to effectively document what happens in treatment.

This course will review current updates from the Board of Behavioral Sciences (BBS) and the Board of Psychology (BOP), as well as information from the 21st Century Cures Act. Attendees will learn the relevant details of the Cures Act and OpenNotes trends, the implications for mental health and how this impacts case note documentation. Attendees will have the chance to practice writing ethical case notes that balance transparency and patient autonomy with the need to protect patient privacy.


 

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

1. Describe the practice of information blocking in health care.

2. Identify the Cures Act rules that prohibits the practice of information blocking.

3. List the key components of a minimal clinical record.

4. Discuss the ethical considerations for maintaining a clinical record that does not include sensitive details about therapy.
