Hello,
NLCHI has received a request from the Regional Health Authorities (RHAs) for a new code for "Psychometrist" as RHAs are adding “Psychometrist” to their Meditech MIS Provider Dictionary.
Psychometrist - The Psychometrist provides advanced and highly specialized psychological testing and assessment services of all aspects of clients' cognitive function affecting treatment decisions. Work involves the coordination of all referrals, performs preliminary interviews, administers standardized and experimental psychological tests, records client responses, prepares reports, and performs office management activities. Work is performed in hospitals, health care agencies, and institutions.
As we have expanded our EHR to Regional Health Authorities, we map their Meditech MIS Providers to HealthCareProviderRoleType subset. Therefore, NLCHI is requesting to add “Psychometrist” to the "HealthCareProviderRoleType" subset as the subset doesn’t have a code that suitably matches the scope of duties the Psychometrist performs.
