I agree that if a Parkinson’s patient is working with an SGD that I would document for AAC in the NOMS.  If I was using the LSVT program with a person with Parkinson’s, I would expect to achieve an improved outcome, and I would document with the NOMS for Voice.

Subject: NOMS for ongoing AAC patient

 

Amy,

 

My co-worker is seeing a Parkinson’s patient and using the NOMS (National Outcome Measure Score) for Motor Speech; however, it is hard to document progress using this area. Is there another NOMS area you use for your ongoing Medicare patient’s to document progress with their SGD? I hope this makes sense.
