OUTCOMES PROGRAM

My comprehensive outcomes program, for use only by members of PTUPDATE.COM, is easy to use and can even be adapted for a database, to make collation of information even easier. For each body region (cervical spine, elbow, knee, etc.), there is an original intake form, a daily update form, and a discharge form. These forms are so full of objective information; they can even serve as your evaluation and discharge! The daily update forms are designed to act as a daily note, if you choose. It provides complete objective, subjective, and functional data in an easy to fill-in format. This program can provide you with the following information:

• How a patient found out about your clinic
• Track your patient by name or social security number
• Physician referral tracking (which physicians, type of physician, etc.)
• Outcomes according to date of surgery, sex of patient, age, insurance type, or surgery date.
• Change in pain levels from first visit to last, and in between if you prefer.
• The patient's own goals, and whether or not they were achieved
• The patient's lifestyle/activity level and its relation to outcomes
• How many patients were given HEP's
• Gains in ROM/strength/mobility from beginning to end, including daily visits.
• Capability of graph plotting daily or weekly gains in ROM/strength/mobility
• Girth change, from beginning to end.
• Billing/charges per diagnosis or outcome
• Outcomes based on specific modalities and/or procedures
• Outcomes per therapist
• Reason for D/C
• Session attendance and outcome results
• Home exercise compliance and outcome results
• Level of effort and outcome results
• Comments about your therapy by your patient
• And many other useful pieces of information

I feel my outcomes program is capable of providing more information for the therapist than any other program I have seen. It was designed so that a person using it can decide which information is most important to them at the time, and tailor the program accordingly.
