CREATING A MEDICAL PRACTICE COMPLIANCE PROGRAM
[Accountability, Processes and Implementation]
Carol S. Miller RN MBA
Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA
In general terms, healthcare entity or medical practice compliance is the organization’s adherence to rules, regulations, guidelines, and specifications relevant to performing its day-to-day operations.
This includes the observance of all applicable Medicare billing guidelines; state, local, and Federal regulations impacting the practice; ethical, privacy and security requirements; and the steps and processes to avoid potential fraud and abuse.
Due to the increasing number of regulations placed on medical practices and the need for operational transparency, provider offices are adopting the use of consolidated and harmonized sets of compliance controls to ensure that all necessary governance requirements can be met without unnecessary duplication of effort or too extensive processes that could take away from patient care.

ALL NEW AND IMPROVED STUDY GUIDE SOFTWARE !
[Versions 2.0]
As we complete our first quarter-century of service to the podiatric community, it is only fitting to update our colleagues of the extreme changes taking place in the individual board exam testing space.
Some of these changes are perfunctory with little practical impact; while others are so profound as to cause extreme consternation in the practitioner community writ-large.
For example:
Nomenclature:
- FROM: American Board of Podiatric Surgery -TO- American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery.
- FROM: American Board of Primary Podiatric Medicine and Orthopedics -TO- American Board of Foot and Ankle Medicine and Orthopedics.
- FROM: ORAL questions -TO- “oral” computerized Clinical Pathology Conference-like queries
- FROM: American Board of Podiatric Medical Specialities -TO- American Board of Medical Specialities, in Podiatry.
- FROM: Non-Competitive MOC Exams -TO-Competitive MOC Re-Cert Tests.
- FROM: Solely DPM crafted exams to professional psychometric designs by PhDs, computer scientists, and E.Eds.
ABPS Statistics: ABPS Statistics
Testing Dynamics:
- The Surgery Certification and Qualification tests now rely less on rote memorization and more on applied cognitive content, and may be very different from any other test you have ever taken, to date [ie., multiple choice or fill-in-the-blank].
- The Primary Medicine and Orthopedics Certification and Qualification tests now rely less on rote memorization and more on applied cognitive content, and may be very different from any test you have ever taken, to date [ie., multiple choice or fill-in-the-blank].
- Traditional human ORAL questions have been usurped by [non-human] computerized Clinical Pathology Conference [CPC] queries; AKA: Computer Based Testing [CBT] or Clinical Scenario Questions [CSQs].
- American Board of Medical Specialities now includes over a dozen general categories; including podiatry.
- The Re-Certification tests for Maintenance of Certification [MOC] now rely much less on rote memory, as in the past; and more on deeply experiential content. It is also becoming more competitive, to-date.
- So-called “wrong” questions by-design are called psychological “stressor questions” and are used to evoke emotional volatility and waste precious time. So, BEWARE!. Moreover; the so-called “points-to-pass” AND “points-to-fail” philosophy may be re-emerging.

This is the dynamic PODIATRY PREP difference [Unique Competitive Advantage] between our customized Study Guide File Programs with customized board exam preparation content, and the static general “off-shelf” books or Web guides of the past; and/or traditional CEU educational seminars.
SAMPLE QUESTIONS: Traditional Rote ISTITUTIONAL RESIDENCY Questions versus Experiential and Cognitive Styled INDIVIDUAL PRACTITIONER [CBT/CBS] Formats
PRACTITIONERS: Be sure to specify the target exam and customize your own personal study guide, today.

Electronic dental records – why bother?
[By Darrell Pruitt DDS]
“Clinician EHR Workload, Cognitive Efforts Double After EHR Adoption – Providers reported significant cognitive workload increases, such as higher levels of frustration and mental demands following EHR adoption”
By Christopher Jason for EHR Intelligence, March 23, 2021.
https://ehrintelligence.com/news/clinician-ehr-workload-cognitive-efforts-double-after-ehr-adoption
Jason: “Clinician workload and cognitive efforts doubled after the first six months of EHR adoption, according to a study published in Applied Ergonomics. Clinicians also experienced increased EHR workload over 2.5 years following EHR implementation. This adds to the evidence showing a connection between EHR usability and clinician burnout. EHR usability issues typically increase cognitive load and errors, leading to patient safety issues. An increase in cognitive load adds to EHR use, which then leads to clinician burnout.”
Compared to physicians, the business of dentistry is like a lemonade stand. Electronic dental records offer only convenience – expensive, complicated and dangerous convenience.
Why bother?

Healthcare Provisions in the American Rescue Plan
By Health Capital Consultants, LLC
On March 11, 2021, President Joe Biden signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA). The law looks to alleviate the burden felt by the millions of people who lost their employer-sponsored health insurance over the first six months of the pandemic and assist the hardest-hit communities through the extension of the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) subsidies, expanding Medicaid coverage, increasing funding for behavioral health, ramping up COVID-19 vaccines and testing, providing financial relief for rural providers, and enacting other individual and healthcare system protections.

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced, depriving brain tissue of oxygen and nutrients [occlusive and hemorrhagic]. Within minutes, brain cells begin to die.A stroke is a medical emergency. Prompt treatment is crucial. Early action can minimize brain damage and potential complications.The good news is that strokes can be treated and prevented, and many fewer Americans die of stroke now than in the past.

By staff reporters
Bipolar disorder, formerly called manic depression, is a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression).
When you become depressed, you may feel sad or hopeless and lose interest or pleasure in most activities. When your mood shifts to mania or hypomania (less extreme than mania), you may feel euphoric, full of energy or unusually irritable. These mood swings can affect sleep, energy, activity, judgment, behavior and the ability to think clearly.
Episodes of mood swings may occur rarely or multiple times a year. While most people will experience some emotional symptoms between episodes, some may not experience any.
Although bipolar disorder is a lifelong condition, you can manage your mood swings and other symptoms by following a treatment plan. In most cases, bipolar disorder is treated with medications and psychological counseling (psychotherapy).

WHAT IS PHYSICIAN BOARD CERTIFICATION AND BOARD ELIGIBILITY?
Courtesy: https://lnkd.in/drrYKeT
BOARD CERTIFICATION (Boarded, Diplomate): A doctor who is board certified has pursued advanced training in his or her specialty and has passed a qualifying examination; a doctor who is board eligible has received the training but has not taken or passed the exam.
DHIMC: https://lnkd.in/e9AmEhd
BOARD ELIGIBLE: Describes a physician who is eligible to take the specialty board examination by virtue of being graduated from an approved medical school, completing a specific type and length of training, and practicing for a specified amount of time. Some HMOs and other health facilities accept board eligibility as equivalent to board certification, significant in that many managed care companies restrict referrals to physicians without certification.

CMP® CURRICULUM: https://lnkd.in/dbAF_iY
DEFINITION: A member of a securities exchange with the essential function of maintaining a fair and orderly market, insofar as reasonably practicable, in the stocks in which he is registered as a specialist. To do this, s/he must buy and sell for his own account and risk, to a reasonable degree, when there is a temporary disparity between supply and demand. In order to equalize trends, he must buy or sell counter to the direction of the market.
DHEF: https://lnkd.in/dqdbWM9
FOREWORD: https://lnkd.in/ecwZWxu
At all times the specialist must put his customer’s interest before his own. All specialists are registered with the exchange, but are not employees of that exchange. Your thoughts are appreciated.

RED CROSS DAY
On this day in 1863, Henry Dunant founded the Red Cross, which would go onto receive the Nobel Peace Prize three times.
During the Battle of Solferino in the Franco-Austrian war, Swiss businessman Dunant was shocked to witness tens of thousands dead or wounded left on the field after just one day of fighting.
After this experience, on 17 February 1863, he decided to form the International Committee of the Red Cross in Geneva Switzerland with four other Swiss businessmen to take care of casualties and prisoners of war. In the following year, the first Geneva Convention was adopted, “for the Amelioration of the Condition of the Wounded and Sick in Armed Forces in the Field.”
The First World War was an enormous challenge for the organisation. At the outbreak of the war in 1914 medical staff from all over the world gathered to take care of the many wounded. One of them was the young Ernest Hemingway (awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature 1954), employed as an ambulance driver on the Austrian-Italian front. The experience later inspired him to write the novel ‘Farewell to Arms’.
***
Henry Dunant was awarded the first ever Nobel Peace Prize in 1901 for his humanitarian work.
The organization he founded received the prize three times.

The Biden Administration has put forth their healthcare plan, which seeks to expand access to affordable healthcare with the following:
***
***
(1) upholding and expanding the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), to reduce the amount that consumers pay for health insurance on the individual marketplace; (2) offering a new, public insurance option similar to Medicare; (3) prohibiting the practice of “surprise billing”; (4) leveraging the Department of Justice’s (DOJ’s) and Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC’s) antitrust authority to target market concentration within the healthcare system; and, (5) driving down prescription drug prices by increasing competition for, and regulation, of pharmaceutical companies.
