Why are detailed patient records so important?
The notes in your patient records can be critical in protecting you from any malpractice claim.
Detailed patient records should include:
The reason for this chiropractic visit,
Past patient medical/health history ( including currently prescribed medications, allergies, surgeries, etc.),
Patient examination notes and documentation on all clinical findings, both positive and negative, and
Documentation of the patient’s diagnosis and treatment plan, the type of treatment, and details of the treatment you provided.
Ultimately, keeping detailed patient records is critical to protecting you in the case of any malpractice case.
