Continuing Education Course 5J assesses the major 'risk factors' which can contribute to suicide of LGBT (a.k.a. GLBT) adolescents and young adults - including the internet, family and friend's history of suicide, harassment at school, rejection by family members, "coming out" to family members at an early age, etc. - and then provides specific recommendations through model programs, for ACTION to reduce the risk of suicide. The strategies are designed to be implemented with LGBT youth in schools, communities, screening programs, crisis lines, practices and gatekeeping clinics.

HOW TO FIND THESE COURSES? Go to the catalog, for details about the 3-Credit 'ETHICS 3D' and the 4-credit 'ETHICS 4D' courses - 'When Insurance Is Paying For Treatment - The Ethics of Treatment Documentation in Today's World'.

We also address the serious BEHAVIORAL difficulties which oftentimes appear concurrently. Like what? Agitated and angry behavior, aggression, refusal to perform essential activities such as toileting, and bizarre behaviors which may lead to inpatient care if not stabilized. How best to approach these AGING issues, therapeutically, in a variety of treatment settings? That’s the focus of this course.
ETHICS CEUs
-
Our 3- and 4-clock hour credit Ethics Courses 3D and 4D are 'never-boring' unique slideshows entitled 'When Insurance Is Paying For Treatment - The Ethics of Clinical Documentation in Today's World'.

Ethics 4D provides the same material as Ethics 3D - with additional material for one more credit hour.

SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN MANAGED CARE
Is Behavioral Health MANAGED CARE just about money and business? NO. Does it have a MAJOR impact upon how Mental Health and Chemical Dependency programs and licensed providers 'assess the need' for treatment and then 'deliver' the treatment? YES - it certainly does, as those of you who are already dealing with it know only too well. We've got some GREAT Managed Care survive-and-thrive stuff for you!
Our Managed Care courses include topics like how to avoid those duh!-type errors which can COST you big bucks. How to collect when the HMO has erroneously denied your claim. Which add-on contract opportunities are SAFE, and which have 'Don't even THINK about it!' written all over them. And other real-life sticky HMO issues!
Want to know the inside nitty gritty about MANAGED CARE - including the how-to and the why-this? And it helps to know how MCOs think.
. . . OR IF YOU'RE ALREADY knee-deep into Managed Care, you can sit back and shout 'YES!' (or maybe 'NO!') as you scroll through our colorful slideshows about this most controversial of subjects, Behavioral Health Managed Care.
It's no-holds-barred stuff, telling it like it really is, in a way that will likely surprise you. Example: Our CE MiniCourse 2B, 'They're Coming To Audit WHEN?' Or check out some of our Managed Care topics here.
And what to do about those unpaid or denied insurance claims? Was this due to failure to document effectively? Failure to demonstrate Medical Necessity? Their error? Or one of those 'duh' errors on our part? Find out all the reasons why claims are denied - here on this site.

Who says Continuing Education has to be boring? re we somewhat unconventional'? Well, actually . . . yes. We are. Our website doesn't look like the other CEU websites. And our CE content is definitely different. We hope you will find it refreshing. And more fun.
IF you are an LPC, Social Worker, LMFT, MFT, or other mental health or AOD professional, are you concerned about how the new Health Care Reform will affect how you treat your patients and clients? Not sure how to react to Managed Care from a clinical perspective? Wanting to know in advance where the 'potholes' are located? Then grab a seat and get a closeup view of what to expect and how to cope with it. We have twelve courses in our Managed Care Catalog which deal with this below.
- What, exactly, is a 'Capitation Contract'?
- How will the MCOs determine 'Medical Necessity' of treatment for your client, and how do you get approval for what he or she really needs?
- How does Care Management really work, from a clinical and medical perspective? Like, what about the ETHICS of how they work, and how does that impact us, the providers?
- And what do we need to place in clients' records to support this? How to do 'fool proof' clinical documentation in those treatment records? Learn which types of Provider Agreements or 'contract add-ons' are 'acceptable risk' and which ones have 'Don't even think about it!' written all over them! What are some good treatment program options to suggest to your insurance company?
- How to collect on those unpaid claims?
