How to Provide Compliant Maintenance Therapy

This educational session has been designed to help clarify the documentation requirements for skilled therapy services. A review of the MAC perspective on therapy documentation will be discussed with details surrounding rehabilitative versus maintenance therapy and the documentation requirements of each. Attendees will be offered a review of references and resources, as well as NGS contact information for future questions regarding Medicare regulations.

Objectives

  • Define skilled therapy and the similarities/differences between restorative and maintenance therapy in a home health episode.
  • Learn what medical reviewers are looking for in documentation and how verbiage may differ for therapists showing progress and continued deficits.
  • Review case studies of acceptable maintenance therapy cases under the Medicare benefit and those that would be denied on review.
