Psychotherapy is defined as a form of treatment for mental illness, behavioural maladaptations, and/or other problems that are assumed to be of an emotional nature, where a physician deliberately establishes a professional relationship with a patient with the purpose of removing, modifying or retarding existing symptoms, or attenuating or reversing disturbed patterns of behaviour, and of promoting positive personality growth and development (see ).
Unit means ½ hour or major part thereof - see General Preamble , for definitions and time-keeping requirements.
The physician must record on the patient's permanent medical record or chart the time when the insured service started and ended.
If supervised by a Supervising Physician, the medical record must identify the Supervising Physician, the Medical Trainee, the service performed, patient consent, and that the Supervising Physician reviewed the service with the trainee.
