If Data Could Talk, What Would It Say?

As health information professionals know, health data is much more than it appears. It tells the story of patients and caregivers, of challenges and triumphs.

Join us at the Baltimore Convention Center this October to connect with your community of health information professionals, engage in conversations about the future of healthcare, and learn about trending topics that will have everyone talking.

AHIMA23 is more than an event, it’s where health information comes to life.

Registration will open soon!

Telehealth has been around for longer than most people realize, but the use of telehealth rose exponentially in 2020 in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services issues special provisions for telehealth during the pandemic, but it did not address the importance of documentation. This article offers telehealth documentation best practices to protect against such issues as denial of payment for services build and negative impacts on patient care.
