Plan of Care (Analytics Report)

The Plan of Care (POC) Tracking Report is an Analysis Grid style report that allows Members to track the process of sending out a POC for a physician's signature for Medicare patients in your clinic for both SOAP 1.0 and 2.0 data. Using this report helps your clinic avoid expired plans of care for your Medicare patients since Medicare requires that therapists recertify the POC within 90 days of the initial treatment or if the patient's condition changes in such a way that the therapist must revise long-term goals—whichever occurs first. The data in this report is refreshed every two hours.

In the WebPT EMR, you can fax the POC from the patient chart, upload a signed POC into the chart using eDoc, and monitor the status of both. 

Note: If a POC is faxed from the EMR, the option to edit will be automatically disabled. Also, you can still edit the status if a POC is not faxed from the EMR and is past the Sig Required date.
