Documentation and Administrative Burdens
 
  • The proposed note-taking requirements resemble those used in residential or skill-building services, representing a major shift in how clubhouse documentation is currently done.
  • Intake and assessment expectations under both this policy and CPST requirements would require far more comprehensive assessments completed before enrollment and authorizations created within a single day—shorter than the current one-week window.
  • Requiring additional physician documentation for diagnoses (including unclear “related disorders”) to be included in authorizations is viewed as excessive.
