  • Therapy Treatment Mode Guidelines for PDPM and Medicare Part B
    Oct 8 2025

    Therapists face increased scrutiny around appropriate service delivery modes in rehab settings — particularly for concurrent, group, and co-treatment services. With reimbursement and compliance implications tied to correct usage, misapplication can result in overbilling, denials, and regulatory risk. In 2020, CMS clarified billing distinctions and accountability under PDPM, making it critical that rehab professionals know when and how to apply each mode within scope and regulation. This course provides practical, evidence-informed strategies to help therapy professionals understand, apply, and document group, concurrent, and co-treatment effectively. Participants will return to their setting equipped to ensure clinical appropriateness, enhance functional outcomes, and meet payer requirements — without sacrificing interdisciplinary collaboration or patient-centered care.

  • Edema Essentials
    Aug 13 2025

    Untreated edema can lead to more severe problems such as stasis dermatitis, discomfort/pain, venous ulcerations, progressed lymphedema and decreased mobility. By recognizing and intervening early, we as clinicians can make a significant impact on quality of life for our clients and possibly prevent the progression of this disease. Through improving your assessment skills at the bedside, you can empower your patients to make a significant change in the trajectory of their livelihood. Clinicians that are involved in rehabilitative medicine are a critical piece to guiding their patients to add wellness into their lifespan and demonstrate the impact early intervention can make in our clients’ lives.

    This course will aim to improve the bedside assessment skills of edema, give practical intervention guidance and guide the clinician on specialist referral needs. Through step-by-step descriptions, this education aims to be applicable immediately after learning for edema assessment, interventions and goal setting.
