Best Practice Approaches to Record Keeping in Today's Market

[AudAF1920 005]

25 October 2019

The Best Practice Approaches to Record Keeping in Today's Market Workshop will be held on Friday 25 October 2019 from 9:00am-5:00pm at Citadines on Bourke Melbourne in Victoria. This Workshop will be presented in partnership with Hearing Business Alliance.





Record keeping is fundamental to every element of an audiology business. Your records describe your clinical procedures, document your client outcomes and detail your HSP compliance. If your business does not maintain adequate records of all these elements it can be at risk. This program will explore what is meant by risk in the health care sector.

In 2012 the HSP adopted a risk-based compliance approach, shifting away from a focus on prescriptive clinical protocols. It recognised the hearing care sector had matured over the decades and agreed the Professional Practice Bodies (PPB’s) were responsible for the clinical competencies of individual practitioners. This workshop will explore your clinical role in determining and documenting positive hearing health outcomes for all your HSP clients.

The HSP responsibility is to ensure compliance with contractual requirements. As HSP practitioners you not only play a critical role in achieving the best outcomes for your clients, but also in supporting the business to ensure program compliance. This day will inform you about your responsibilities for audit and administration of the HSP Voucher Scheme. 

Learning Outcomes:

  • To increase understanding of the risks associated with inadequate or imprecise documentation of clinical processes
  • To improve written record-keeping as integral to clinical best practice
  • To better inform participants of the aims and objectives of the Scope of Practice
  • To increase knowledge of the key requirements of the 2019 HSP legislation and the Service Provider Contract
  • To inform participants of the HSP audit process
