The Audit Ready Progress Note Template
Clear, structured, and built with CMS guidelines in mind. Everything you need to document sessions the right way.
Writing good progress notes shouldn't feel like a guessing game — but for a lot of clinicians, it does. Between keeping up with payer requirements, documenting medical necessity, and making sure every session note can hold up under scrutiny, the administrative side of clinical work can be exhausting.
This template takes the guesswork out of it.
Built with CMS documentation guidelines in mind, the Audit Ready Progress Note Template gives you a clear, structured framework for documenting every session — whether you're brand new to private practice or you've been doing this for years and just want a cleaner system.
What's included:
Full mental status examination with checkbox fields
Telehealth compliance section covering CMS-required documentation
Medical necessity documentation for 90837 (extended session) billing
Risk and safety documentation field

Instant download. One purchase, yours to use.
This template is designed to align with CMS documentation guidelines and support audit-conscious clinical practice. Compliance outcomes depend on the accuracy and completeness of the clinician's documentation. It is the clinician's responsibility to stay current with applicable payer policies and regulatory requirements, which are subject to change. Auralux Consulting assumes no liability for audit findings or claim outcomes.
