Welcome to the August edition of THE CHIROPRACTIC ASSISTANT!
Leading with some continuing education on page 4, Dr. Laurie Mueller tackles the Piriformis muscle which is often associated with sciatica. So, even if you have to read this article twice (like I did) in order to best understand how to help and explain the cause and recommendations for treating this important muscle and its associated conditions, it’s worth it!
Next, authors Holly Jensen & Kristi Hudson address Active Care. Kristi discusses “Medicare Documentation: Prom Active Care to Maintenance Care” starting on page 8. And Holly gives useful insight from answering the telephone to forecasting the care plan along with payment tips to make sure the patients not only follow through with their care plans, but are set up to stay on as a patient after the pain is gone.
