    ASSIGNMENTThe Assignment

    ASSIGNMENT:

    Develop a Focused SOAP Note, including your differential diagnosis and critical-thinking process to formulate a primary diagnosis. Incorporate the following into your responses in the template:

    ·
    **Subjective:** What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?

    ·
    **Objective:** What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?

    ·
    **Assessment:** Discuss the patient’s mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses with supporting evidence, listed in order from highest priority to lowest priority. Compare the
    _DSM-5-TR_  diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what
    _DSM-5_ -TR criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis. Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case.

    ·
    **Plan:** What is your plan for psychotherapy? What is your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan. Also incorporate one health promotion activity and one patient education strategy.

    ·
    **Reflection notes:** What would you do differently with this patient if you could conduct the session again? Discuss what your next intervention would be if you could follow up with this patient. Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations (demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!), health promotion, and disease prevention, taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).

    · Provide at least three evidence-based, peer-reviewed journal articles or evidenced-based guidelines that relate to this case to support your diagnostics and differential diagnoses. Be sure they are current (no more than 5 years old).

    The National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) was developed by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to eliminate improper CPT coding, detect inappropriate CPT codes on claims and deny payment for them. NCCI edits are released 4 times a year.

    Significant to NCCI is the term “Mutually Exclusive.”  Mutually exclusive procedures are those procedures that cannot reasonably be performed together based on the code definitions or anatomic considerations. Therefore, Mutually Exclusive Edits are used to indicate one of three things:

    1. the two codes cannot reasonably be done in the same session;

    2. situations where two procedures representing two different methods to accomplish the same therapeutic result may have been employed and only the successful procedure should be reported; or

    3. the reporting of an initial and a subsequent service together.

    An advanced clinical coder/billing specialist must have knowledge of NCCI and NCCI edits.

    Explore best practices from The National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI).

    Include the following aspects in the discussion:

    · In your own words describe NCCI, its history, purpose, and importance in correcting coding

    · What are the policies based on?

    · How would you use this in your daily coding/billing activities?

    ·
    Discuss what the benefits are of NCCI and NCCI edit.
