Documenting Medical Necessity: A Practical
Guide for Home Health

Initial patient assessment in home health can be tricky. If documentation does not adequately provide a reason for skilled nursing care in the home, you might not get reimbursed at all. In Documenting Medical Necessity: A Practical Guide for Home Health, author Heather Calhoun, RN, BSN, HCS-D, COS-C, provides down-to-earth, conversational documentation tips with dozens of example scenarios to help nurses understand medical necessity and document in a manner that encourages proper and complete reimbursement.

This book has:

• A grounded, conversational style that speaks directly to nurses who are responsible for the documentation
• Dozens of hypothetical examples that provide concrete learning opportunities
• Scenarios that are available electronically to provide handouts for ongoing and on-the-go learning
• Content that serves as a great resource for orientation and annual training
