HealthcareDocument Management3MediumPhysical Therapist$ implied
A physical therapist cannot get signed Plan of Care documents back from physicians, leading to uncertainty about payment and treatment authorization.
Existing communication methods (phone calls, fax) are unreliable for obtaining signed POCs from busy physicians, and there is no visibility into the status of the request or whether the clinic will be reimbursed.
