Risk Management
Medical Documentation: It's not just for claims, anymore. If your documentation is not an effective communication channel, it will not protect your patients, or you, if you are sued! Remember the importance of accurate medical documentation. If you have any questions, call our Free NACHC Malpractice Risk Management and Technical Assistance Line at 517.703.8464 or toll-free at 888.466.4272. Call for the latest information on how to prevent claims, improve quality, manage malpractice risk, and respond to patient concerns. Risk Management Consultants will respond within 30 minutes if not available immediately between the hours from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern. During all other hours, please leave a message and your call will be returned promptly.
