Further more each individual employee needs to be presented daily and weekly basis in the form of a pie chart based upon their types of reimbursement this breaks down like this for instance

branch 2 a focused nursing admittance for not a narrative. The current format of Care2x leaves too much up to the nurse to document rather than prompting her for the necessary data for future digital diagnostic programs and minimum standard required of a chart. this fortunately can be rapidly corrected. Our company in conjunction with our customer will create this format in the next two weeks. Then we will need to employ some developers to code this.
