Synopsis
Convicted of healthcare fraud, Dr. Shelburne found that his records were faulty. A defensive systematic approach to record keeping must be established. If it's not in your clinical record, you didn't see it, you didn't say it, you didn't do it, it didn't need to be done and it doesn't exist.
Learning Objectives
- Recognize the clear and present dangers associated with the failure to record and maintain appropriate clinical records;
- Minimize risk by assimilating clinical records that will protect and defend the practitioner and the practice; and
- Maintain records that can support the doctor and the practice in the event of an outside challenge.
