New York, NY (PRWEB) November 20, 2008 -- Dr. Ruthann Russo, author of A Compelling Case for Clinical Documentation (http://www.acompellingcase.com) and creator of the CAMP™ Method training system and Joseph J. Russo, Esq., compliance attorney, announce their joint presentation to the Case Management Society of America (CMSA) on Tuesday, December 9, 6:30 pm at The Marriott Marquis Hotel on 44th St. and Broadway, NYC. The theme of the CMSA meeting is "Legislature Update: Laws and Regulations Impacting Case Management and Health Care". Reservations are available through CMSA at http://www.cmsa-nyc.org/calendar.php.
The Russos' presentation will address legal issues that impact hospital clinical documentation programs. Joseph Russo will discuss the new plans under Jim Sheehan--New York's Office of the Medicaid Inspector General. Atty. Russo will also describe some of the U.S. Office of the Inspector General's recent investigations of clinical documentation programs.
Dr. Ruthann Russo shows how working through a hospital's physicians, and not around them is the most effective method in achieving high quality clinical documentation. Using the CAMP™ Method for clinical documentation involves coaching, asking, mastering, and peer learning, and Dr. Russo describes each of these pieces and how to use them.
Other sections of the presentation include how to identify clinical documentation synergies with the electronic medical record and how to achieve strategic alignment with the hospital's medical staff using clinical documentation practices.
