    Question

    One of the guidelines for effective physician queries is:

    Responses

    · Questions need not be supported by clinical findings

    · You may introduce any new information not contained in the record

    · You can present the impact to reimbursement

    · Do not provide leading information

    Physician queries are acceptable in what format(s)?

    Responses

    · "Yes"/"No"

    · Open Ended

    ·
    All of these

    A patient is admitted from the ED with signs and symptoms of infection, including fever and elevated WBC. The admitting diagnosis is UTI with suspected sepsis. Possible sepsis is noted on the H&P and the infectious disease consult. Progress notes initially include "sepsis". The blood culture comes back negative, however, and following this, the diagnosis of sepsis continues to be documented on the progress notes as these are copied-and-pasted from day to day. The Discharge Summary documents "UTI—sepsis was ruled out".

    A physician query would be appropriate in this instance.

    Responses

    · True

    True

    ·
    False

    A patient develops anemia following a major surgery. The OR states that there was some bleeding; however, there were no additional procedures performed to control the bleeding that would not otherwise have been done. The patient was transfused, though, and serial H&Hs were followed throughout the remainder of the admission. Fluid overload also developed during the admission, around the same time as the patient was transfused. The final diagnosis on the Discharge Summary is simply "anemia". The body of the Discharge Summary attributes this to hemodilution from IV fluids.

    A physician query would be appropriate in this instance:

    Responses

    · True

    Assignment Prompt & Instructions

    Select 2 of the following questions to answer. Pick one question from each group of questions.
    Critical thinking must be demonstrated in each answered question.
    Group A
    1. List the standards, certifications and continuing education for prospective coaches (all
    levels)? For youth sport coaches who are predominately volunteers or whom receive little
    pay, what incentives could be provided to encourage them to complete at least some
    fundamental coaching education requirements? Which requirements would you suggest
    be the minimum for any youth coach including volunteers?
    2. After reading the section on high school interscholastic sports discussing the pros and
    cons, costs, popularity, and effects on participants, how would you create a mission
    statement for high school sports in the United States? In one or two paragraphs, write out
    your mission statement. Identify the location of the school, the population it serves, and
    the community, town, and state.
    3. Do you believe that academic institutions established for higher education should provide
    athletic scholarships to students who attend their schools? Make a case either in favor of
    or against the granting of athletic scholarships.
    Group B
    1. In spite of the obvious significant improvements in opportunities for girls and women in
    sport since the passage of Title IX in 1972, many inequities in sports programs still exist.
    Identify five key barriers to equality and suggest at least one suggestion to remove it as a
    barrier.
    2. Research and compare the positives and negatives of hosting a mega-sporting event, like
    the Olympics or the World Cup. Should the government support (e.g., facilities, training,
    financially) the elite athletes who participate in the Olympics? Should the funds be
    awarded on the basis of financial need, athletic merit or a combination of the two? Should
    the government use sport as a diplomatic tool to promote American Ideology during these
    events?
    Based upon the assigned readings and presentations, you will answer all questions using current
    APA formatting (Times New Roman, 12-point font, and double spaced). All answers must be
    compiled in a Word document and submitted on the course online platform. Citations from the
    assigned reading are required in answering the questions. Each answer must be comprehensive,
    with sport related current examples. Each question must be answered with 400–500 words.
    Critical thinking must be demonstrated in each answered question. Include a proper APA title
    and reference page for each journal.

As athletes or active people, it is sometimes difficult to imagine why the general population does not exercise. As such, interviewing two non-athletes about exercise will help you to see different perspectives on exercise. You are required to interview individuals from two different racial/cultural/ethnic backgrounds in order to analyze the differences in cultural attitudes and challenges toward exercise participation and adherence.<br>Instructions:<br>· Find two college aged-students or working adults who are similar in age and of the same gender identification. <br>_Neither should be friends, family, roommates, or other familiar others._ Also, interviewees cannot be student-athletes or other individuals who are <br>_required_ to exercise. One individual should be regularly active (at least 4 times per week) and the second individual should be considered sedentary (little to no regular physical activity). These participants must represent two different cultural/racial/ethnic backgrounds.<br> <br>· Conduct an interview with each individual (separately), asking about their health, history with exercise, and stance on exercise. A detailed interview guide is available at the end of this Course Outline.<br>· Write a 2-3 page paper (<br>**not** including title page and references; in APA 7th edition format) on your findings and their relationship to course material. The paper <br>**should not be a verbatim transcript** of the interview. Rather, it should reflect the information you gathered and provide a <br>**synthesis of the differences** between the two people you interviewed, <br>**integrating course material** throughout, where appropriate.<br> <br>Even though this is a short paper (2-3 pages minimum), make sure that you adhere to APA 7th edition style and formatting. Also, where integrating course material, you should cite your textbook or other references appropriately. |

It is recommended that you track your behavior for the first week and then choose a specific behavior to change.<br>_Identifying a behavior_: Identify a behavior change to be attempted for at least three weeks. Behavior change options include, but are not limited to: starting or significantly changing an exercise program, drastically reducing caffeine intake (if you consume caffeine daily), quitting or reducing tobacco use, adhering to a specific diet plan or meeting specific caloric intake goals, etc. Whichever option you choose, it <br>**must** be approved by the instructor prior to initiating the behavior change program. You will also identify at least one outcome goal and at least three process goals you will use to achieve the behavior change. <br>_Identification of your behavior and goal identification was done via a Week 1 Discussion Board thread._<br>_Behavior Change Paper (4-8 pages):_ The final behavior change paper is an <br>**integration** of personal experience and knowledge gained from this course. It should include personal successes <br>**_and_** struggles throughout the behavior change process, a discussion of <br>_at least_<br>_**one** **theory**_ of behavior change relevant to your personal experience, discussion of other <br>**_relevant course content_** as applicable to your personal experience (e.g., personality characteristics, social influence/support, motivation, perceived benefits, etc.), and future intentions to improve or maintain behavior change and anticipated modifications to the behavior change program.<br> <br>Directions<br>· Briefly describe your overall experience. Address your attitude, motivation, and specific goals at the onset of the program. As an introduction, this section should include why the behavior was chosen for change, and your state of mind as you began this journey. The introduction should be approximately 1 page in length.<br>· Discuss <br>**at least one theoretical model** of behavior change and its relevance to your behavior change program. Be specific about how this model can be applied to your specific situation (i.e., discuss specific examples that illustrate how the model can be applied to your behavior change journey). Although, highlight persistent barriers and your success/failure at handling them. If you were successful, what contributed to your success (e.g., coping skills)? If you relapsed, what contributed to that? What could you do differently to overcome the barrier(s) in the future? Theory/Course Content integration should be 2-5 pages in length.<br> <br>· Finally, explain your journey; how did it go? Evaluate your success/failure and contributing factors to your success/failure. Also, discuss your intentions for (dis)continued attempts/maintenance of your behavior change. Where do you see yourself 3 months from now? 6 months? A year? Include modifications you would/intend to make to your goals or strategies to make the change permanent. Summary and future plans should be 1-2 pages in length.<br>Papers should follow APA 7th edition style and formatting, and should be 4-8 pages in length (<br>**not** including title page and references), at minimum. You should have <br>_at least_ one reference (your textbook) but I would encourage you to include more. |

As athletes or active people, it is sometimes difficult to imagine why the general population does not exercise. As such, interviewing two non-athletes about exercise will help you to see different perspectives on exercise. You are required to interview individuals from two different racial/cultural/ethnic backgrounds in order to analyze the differences in cultural attitudes and challenges toward exercise participation and adherence.<br>Instructions:<br>· Find two college aged-students or working adults who are similar in age and of the same gender identification. <br>_Neither should be friends, family, roommates, or other familiar others._ Also, interviewees cannot be student-athletes or other individuals who are <br>_required_ to exercise. One individual should be regularly active (at least 4 times per week) and the second individual should be considered sedentary (little to no regular physical activity). These participants must represent two different cultural/racial/ethnic backgrounds.<br> <br>· Conduct an interview with each individual (separately), asking about their health, history with exercise, and stance on exercise. A detailed interview guide is available at the end of this Course Outline.<br>· Write a 2-3 page paper (<br>**not** including title page and references; in APA 7th edition format) on your findings and their relationship to course material. The paper <br>**should not be a verbatim transcript** of the interview. Rather, it should reflect the information you gathered and provide a <br>**synthesis of the differences** between the two people you interviewed, <br>**integrating course material** throughout, where appropriate.<br> <br>Even though this is a short paper (2-3 pages minimum), make sure that you adhere to APA 7th edition style and formatting. Also, where integrating course material, you should cite your textbook or other references appropriately. |

It is recommended that you track your behavior for the first week and then choose a specific behavior to change.<br>_Identifying a behavior_: Identify a behavior change to be attempted for at least three weeks. Behavior change options include, but are not limited to: starting or significantly changing an exercise program, drastically reducing caffeine intake (if you consume caffeine daily), quitting or reducing tobacco use, adhering to a specific diet plan or meeting specific caloric intake goals, etc. Whichever option you choose, it <br>**must** be approved by the instructor prior to initiating the behavior change program. You will also identify at least one outcome goal and at least three process goals you will use to achieve the behavior change. <br>_Identification of your behavior and goal identification was done via a Week 1 Discussion Board thread._<br>_Behavior Change Paper (4-8 pages):_ The final behavior change paper is an <br>**integration** of personal experience and knowledge gained from this course. It should include personal successes <br>**_and_** struggles throughout the behavior change process, a discussion of <br>_at least_<br>_**one** **theory**_ of behavior change relevant to your personal experience, discussion of other <br>**_relevant course content_** as applicable to your personal experience (e.g., personality characteristics, social influence/support, motivation, perceived benefits, etc.), and future intentions to improve or maintain behavior change and anticipated modifications to the behavior change program.<br> <br>Directions<br>· Briefly describe your overall experience. Address your attitude, motivation, and specific goals at the onset of the program. As an introduction, this section should include why the behavior was chosen for change, and your state of mind as you began this journey. The introduction should be approximately 1 page in length.<br>· Discuss <br>**at least one theoretical model** of behavior change and its relevance to your behavior change program. Be specific about how this model can be applied to your specific situation (i.e., discuss specific examples that illustrate how the model can be applied to your behavior change journey). Although, highlight persistent barriers and your success/failure at handling them. If you were successful, what contributed to your success (e.g., coping skills)? If you relapsed, what contributed to that? What could you do differently to overcome the barrier(s) in the future? Theory/Course Content integration should be 2-5 pages in length.<br> <br>· Finally, explain your journey; how did it go? Evaluate your success/failure and contributing factors to your success/failure. Also, discuss your intentions for (dis)continued attempts/maintenance of your behavior change. Where do you see yourself 3 months from now? 6 months? A year? Include modifications you would/intend to make to your goals or strategies to make the change permanent. Summary and future plans should be 1-2 pages in length.<br>Papers should follow APA 7th edition style and formatting, and should be 4-8 pages in length (<br>**not** including title page and references), at minimum. You should have <br>_at least_ one reference (your textbook) but I would encourage you to include more. |

    CDI and Qualified Coders

    Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) programs facilitate accurate, thorough documentation in the medical record.  This program also identifies discrepancies that may exist in the provider documentation when the codes are being selected. The successful request for clarification via the physician query process is enhanced when the coding specialist has a strong foundation knowledge base. This points to the importance of coder qualifications. Also, in 2018, Medicare was found to have a billing error rate of 8.1% which equated to a loss of $31.6 Billion. Programs were developed to detect and correct past improper payments. A portion of the focus on these programs is to identify areas of provider confusion within Medicare billing and to develop compliance programs. The Office of the Inspector General, OIG, Compliance Program Guidance states, “Because incorrect procedure coding may lead to overpayments and subject a hospital to liability for the submission of false claims, hospitals need to pay close attention to coder training and qualifications.”
