The Simple Truth.....

Therapy providers are under continuous pressure to provide high quality services at the lowest possible cost.  The regulatory environment is difficult and includes PPS, CCI Edits, State Survey, Case Mix, and other regulatory systems.  Costs must be kept low in a difficult financial environment that includes fixed PPS reimbursement, Med B Caps, upward salary pressure for qualified staff, and systems that often do not manage these complex issues.

Peak Therapy Consulting.....

We provide clinical training, on-going compliance oversight, and leading edge software at affordable prices Over the Internet!  This keeps our costs low and we pass the savings on to you.  We are the low cost alternative to hiring your own compliance officer or a traditional therapy consultant.  Our clients use our services to provide a level of quality control not available elsewhere.  

Peak Therapy Consulting has the advantage of being "off site," which is less intrusive to you and your staff.  Traditional therapy consultants lack systems to plan and monitor recommendations made.  Our leading edge software develops the service plan, monitors quality control, financial, and other performance indicators, and spots clinical or operational issues before they become compliance audits problems.

Clinical Compliance Oversight Services.....

We work with your staff to improve their clinical skills.  Our goal is to maximize therapeutic outcomes for your patients and business outcomes for the facility.  Our facility profile sets a "baseline" to determine appropriate and expected therapeutic interventions.  Our service plan maintains quality measures, ensures regulatory compliance, and guides profitability management.

Organizations that have access to the latest clinical training, on-going compliance oversight, and leading edge software are more profitable than those that do not.  Peak Therapy Consulting delivers these essential services Over the Internet, providing you with the expertise necessary to stay competitive.

Problem: A 61% increase in patients resulted in a 24% decrease in minutes per session and a decrease in Medicare Part A revenue.  Action Steps: Peak has targeted 70 minutes per session, 4 units per session, and concurrent therapy treatments to improve therapy interventions and increase this client's RUG's levels.

Management Review Services.....

We review and analyze quality control, financial, and other performance indicators periodically and compare them to the service plan.  We monitor Treatment Plans, Diagnosis usage, CPT Code usage, RUG's Levels, ARD minute usage, CCI Edits, CMS minute parameters, once per day procedures, and other compliance issues.  We monitor staff productivity by measuring both treatment and non-treatment time.

Problem: This client does not manage patient length of stay, diagnoses usage, outcomes measures, or inter-disciplinary treatment plans.  Action Steps:  Peak is training the staff in inter-disciplinary treatment techniques to increase the minutes per visit and the client's RUG's levels.

Leading Edge Software.....

Our leading edge software spots clinical or operational issues before they become compliance audit problems.  Exceptions like Med A case mix, CPT code, diagnosis, or billing errors are identified immediately.  We refocus your therapist's time so you can manage patient care and ensure appropriate reimbursement for therapist time expended.  Productivity and profitability management are made easy. 

Training Programs.....

Improvements in quality control and profitability can be achieved with formal clinical training programs. We offer a full array of clinical training programs to ensure quality control, improve the clinical skill of your staff, and help you emerge from periodic clinical compliance audits successfully.

Training & Staff Retention.....

Offering effective training programs will help retain qualified therapists.  Staff turnover can be as high as 33% annually.  Enrollment in some therapy programs has declined by 50% in the last five years.  These facts make each therapist a precious resources to be protected.

Many therapy providers are unable to develop their own training programs.  Staying current with complex regulatory and reimbursement changes is a full-time job.  An effective training program makes your therapists feel they are prepared to do their jobs well.  The supportive environment created by such training programs will reduce staff turnover and cut costs.
