SHM's Clinical Quick Talks

In light of the busy clinical services and demands on hospitalists’ schedules, it is often difficult to carve out time to prepare short lectures for residents and students. To meet this need, SHM's Education Committee created a library of quick talks designed to be succinct (given in less than 10 minutes) for use during teaching rounds, a brief sit-down session, or topic review. Access to this library is free for active SHM members, and nonmembers can subscribe (3 years for $199).

Utilization Management and Clinical Documentation for Hospitalists

Accurate clinical documentation has never been more crucial. Hospitalists face a full spectrum of medical conditions in their careers. Regardless of a provider’s level of experience, the addition of new standards and policies, in both number and complexity, necessitate continued education. Utilization Management and Clinical Documentation for Hospitalists is an educational program on clinical documentation. It is broken into two activities. The first is a two-part didactic covering the fundamental principles of both utilization management and clinical documentation. The second is a activity of six case studies that walks participants through common diagnoses in Hospital Medicine to illustrate clinical documentation and status determinations using the standard of medical necessity. After completing this activity series, hospitalists will be able to produce more accurate and comprehensive clinical documentation, which will help ensure quality patient care and proper reimbursement for the level of care provided.
