Care Team Participants
The Care Team Participants section displays a list of all practitioners that are currently servicing the patient. These practitioners have access to view (and for BCBA's to edit) the patient’s care plan, as well as conduct sessions – between the start and end date of the care team participant record.
Auto-created Care Team Participants
A practitioner is automatically added to a patient’s care team when:
- The practitioner is populated on the patient’s authorization. The care team participant's start and end dates will be based on the authorization dates.
- If a care team participant already exists for that Patient/Practitioner combination, the dates of the care team participant will be updated to match the widest date range between all of the authorizations.
- An assignment is created for the practitioner. The care team participant's start and end dates will be based on the dates on the assignment.
- An encounter is scheduled for the practitioner. The care team participant's start and end dates will be based on the dates of the authorization.
- If a care team participant already exists for that Patient/Practitioner combination, the dates of the care team participant will be updated to match the widest date range between all of the authorizations.
A care team participant record can be edited – for example, if the dates need to be extended or shortened. Care team participant records can also be added manually.
