Meticulous Detail is Required from Beginning to End
When charting compliant documentation of modalities, you and your staff should always have a complete, thorough, compliant final patient note in mind. The doctor, during the examination, follows a ‘walk through’ utilizing an expert knowledge base beginning with the initial evaluation, recommendation of chiropractic care and physical medicine procedures, and the written treatment plan.
Compliant Chiropractic Documentation Includes Modalities, Procedures, and Therapies
In every step, meticulous detail is required, establishing medical necessity for modalities, procedures, and therapies, which promise the desired functional improvement to the patient. Keep the functional deficits and functional goals in mind when you document your patient’s care.

I want to say how very, very thankful I am that I "happened" onto a webinar Kathy had done on Chirotouch. It was a prerecorded webinar and I learned so very much. All I could think was," Wow, we so desperately need KMCU in our office." Ever since the first contact I made with Kathy, we have been nothing but blessed. She was so helpful. She had Yvette do a follow up with us, and the rest is history. The caring and concern the two of them showed us made me even more determined to be a member of KMCU. I thank God daily for allowing us to "discover" ya'll and will be forever thankful for all the help as well as the resources available to us.
