DHS requires you to use a progress note to bill for time spent on the FA and ITP. We apply the same concept to the DA as well. So the top-level process is this:

Progress Notes
The BLSS and other notes are all directly billable, so they only require that you schedule the appointment with the form selected that you like.

A few things to note:

  • The DATES of each note are incredibly important. Please make sure to take time and get the dates right.
    • E.G. If you don’t update the Treatment Plan date and it’s March 21st, then you try to complete a BLSS on the calendar for March 18th, the system will tell you there’s no ITP because DHS requires the treatment plan to be done (i.e. dated and signed) prior to the date of the BLSS.
  • Forms are not considered valid unless they are signed
  • Make sure you set the Client and Provider Locations correctly
  • Always add travel time in the progress note if applicable
