As a COTA in the state of VA for the past 20 years, I am concerned with the wording in 18VAC85-80-110D. Please consider changes to this requirement. The current need for daily cosignatures creates more paperwork and less time for patient care. I agree with cosignatures for information in the evaluation, discharge, and treatment plan, but as a healthcare professional, do not think daily signatures are necessary.
