Yes. The treatment plans and progress notes generated by TheraScribe 4.0 meet the requirements of JCAHO and most third-party payers. A sample treatment plan can be downloaded and shared with the third-party payers and Managed Care Organizations with whom they work in order to obtain pre-approval. In addition to authorized sessions and patient progress, TheraScribe 4.0 tracks outcome data, which is increasingly required by Managed Care organizations. Treatment outcomes can be analyzed by diagnosis, presenting problem, provider, patient demographics, and time frame. Outcome results can be displayed in chart format or as 3-D graphs.

Users with Administrator-level security may create customized clinical or administrative reports by adapting the built-in reports, or by using the "Report Wizard" functions, which are described in more detail in the User's Guide and in online help in TheraScribe. (See Using Custom Report Wizards.) Although the Report Wizards can help, creating reports from sophisticated database applications like TheraScribe® 4.0 can be quite challenging. If you are a novice computer user, we urge you to leave the report customization function aside until you gain complete familiarity with TheraScribe. You may then follow the instructions in this section to add or delete fields from the standard clinical report sections, or to paste in your practice's logo at the top of the report.
