When it comes to reimbursement, it is crucial to make sure that all documents are available. To avoid any issues related to reimbursement, it is essential to make sure that documents created at the initial stage are properly developed. Thus, physical examination, history and medical decision-making should be detailed and thorough. It is quite important to include social history in the documentation (Welker, 2012). Bad habits, marital status, type of dwelling, occupation and so on can affect the patient’s health and treatment outcomes and, hence, this information should be included. It is also important to make sure that the diagnosis is detailed and complete. The severity of the patient’s state is revealed. It is crucial to make sure that the right codes are used throughout the documents (Buppert, 2006).
Furthermore, it is beneficial to clearly indicate the aspect treated. It can be common that many healthcare professionals or even facilities provide their healthcare services and treat different aspects of the patient’s condition. Of course, it should be clear which aspect was treated. It is also important to sign documents properly. Thus, whenever the specialist checks on the patient’s progress or adds any information to the patient’s history or any other document, he/she should sign the document and put the date.
The CV is an important document that can be regarded as a certain kind pf first meeting that creates the first impression. Clearly, it has to be detailed and appealing. It is important to remember that within two or three pages, an applicant has to reveal his/her educational background, work experience as well as major achievements.
An effective CV should include such headings as personal details, experience, major achievements, education, professional activities and additional information. As for personal details, it is important to include name, date of birth, marital status and telephone number (as well as email). It is possible to summarize this section by providing a sentence (or several sentences) revealing major professional and personal qualities.
Of course, the working experience should be detailed but it is essential to use relevant information only. Importantly, this section should include the applicant’s major achievements. Of course, this information should be quite specific and it is a good idea to use particular numbers. The potential employer will be able to evaluate the input the applicant will make.
The education section should include details concerning educational background. It is important to include dates and all qualifications the applicant has. The section concerning professional activities should include information on participation at conferences, membership in various organizations and so on.
It is also possible to add information on hobbies or voluntary work completed. This can be valuable for the potential employer who can check whether the applicant’s values are consistent with the values and culture of the organization.
It is necessary to add that formatting is as important as the contents of the CV. Thus, all major sections should be highlighted (usually with the help of bold font). Of course, it is necessary to use proper font and spacing. It is a good idea to highlight (underline, use italics) the most important information. At the same time, it is crucial to stick to one style. It is important to draw the reader’s attention to particular points. Of course, it is better to avoid abbreviations as this can lead to confusion.
