MULTI-CLIENT NOTES
DESCRIPTION
Clinical Management for Behavioral Health Services (CMBHS) provides users a way to document service provision to a single client and to multiple clients. The multiple client function allows the provider to write one note that will be placed in the health record of multiple clients.
This function is used when each client received the same service (i.e. all attended a class on accessing community resources or received the same medication) and there is no need to document any additional individualized information.
The multi-client note can be used to bill for some services. Consult your DSHS Contract and the Texas Administrative Code for more details regarding documentation of service delivery.
If there is a need to document additional clinical information, a progress note can be written in a client’s record, marked as non-billable, assuming the Multi-client Note was used to bill for the services.
