Welcome solo and group practice owners! We are Liath Dalton and Evan Dumas, your co-hosts of Group Practice Tech.
In our latest episode, we share 4 important considerations for psychotherapy notes in a group practice context.
We discuss what notes are protected from release; how to quickly find out what your state’s rules are; what to include in your Notice of Privacy Practices about psychotherapy notes; what psychotherapy notes are and are not; having policies in place for documentation; where misconceptions about documentation come from; and how to support your team with documentation.
