Medical Necessity and Minimum Necessary Requirement for Clinical Documentation in Private Practice
In this episode of Practice Pursuit for Therapists, Rachel and Adrienne tackle two of the most crucial yet often misunderstood aspects of clinical documentation—medical necessity and the minimum necessary requirement. These foundational concepts may feel overwhelming, but mastering them is essential to creating effective and compliant notes that protect your practice.
What You'll Learn:

✔️ Stay ahead of documentation challenges
✔️ Reduce anxiety and fear around note-taking
✔️ Build best practices that grow with your business
