You should immediately notify your employer and Expert Assessment Solutions, Inc by e-mail at info@aCodec.com of any unauthorized use of your User Account or any breach of security. You should immediately notify your employer and Expert Assessment Solutions, Inc by e-mail at info@aCodec.com of any changes to your employment status.
Do I have to make changes to my assessments based on aCodec’s suggestions?
Upon completing your assessment aCodec will generate an automated suggestion report. The suggestion report flags possible inconsistencies between assessment responses on a completed assessment. You are always responsible for your own assessment and it is up to you to review the generated suggestions and make conclusions on whether to make changes based on your own professional judgement.
It is expected that upon noting any inconsistencies, or encountering previously unknown concepts, in the suggestion report assessors will further educate themselves by researching the information through reliable outside sources and seeking additional information from patients, caregivers, physicians, etc. (in accordance with organization’s policies and professional regulations), prior to making any changes or drawing conclusions. Not all findings may be relevant or consistent with the assessor’s in-person assessment. The suggestion report indicates areas that an assessor may want to further research and verify. The suggestion report DOES NOT provide or suggest diagnosis, or any treatment plan.
