HEP Handout

Two Main Ways to Create a Visual Handout: Click into any Gen AI and provide effective prompts, then tell it to generate an image or an downloadable file (Word, Google Doc, pdf, and etc) See Create Handouts (Advanced) below by connecting Canva to different GenAI for mentally easier edits. Prompt Input: "Create a one-page handout for the spouse of an older adult with moderate Alzheimer's disease receiving home health OT services in a rural community. The handout should: Use plain language (approximately a 6th-grade reading level) Explain what dementia is and why daily activities become more difficult Include 5 practical tips to support independence Use a reassuring, supportive tone Include clear headings and bullet points End with a reminder that every person experiences dementia differently Format the handout using headings, short paragraphs, and bullet points suitable for printing." Output: Your Gen AI will generate the written document because you did not specify the materials. Then, you will need to + "Create Image" with the output (and the new edits you made). Make edits by click into the picture. Example Prompt (with consent and within HIPAA compliant AI only):

Insurance Advocacy for AI-Enabled Device

You are an experienced occupational therapist writing a professional insurance advocacy email requesting coverage for an AI-enabled fall prevention device. Write a concise, persuasive email that can be sent to an insurance case manager or utilization review specialist. The email should emphasize occupational therapy's role in promoting safety, independence, participation in meaningful occupations, and aging in place. Use the information below to personalize the request: (Exclude PHI & PII and fill the information in after AI chatbox created the template you want!) Patient Information (de-identified!): • Age: (DO NOT INCLUDE SPECIFIC AGE ABOVE 89 ACCORDINGLY TO HIPAA) • Primary diagnosis: • Cognitive status: • Functional limitations: • Fall history: • Living situation: • Caregiver availability: • Rural or underserved community considerations: (DO NOT INCLUDE SPECIFIC COUNTY) Recommended Technology: • Device name: • Primary purpose (fall detection, emergency response, wandering prevention, activity monitoring, etc.): Clinical Justification: • Why is this device medically necessary? • Which occupational performance problems does it address? • How will it reduce caregiver burden? • How will it improve participation, safety, or independence? • What lower-tech strategies have already been attempted? • What evidence or best practice supports this recommendation? Health Equity Considerations: Include a brief paragraph explaining how access to this technology supports digital health equity by reducing barriers experienced by individuals living in rural or underserved communities. Explain why equitable access to appropriate technology can improve safety, participation, and access to care. Close the email by requesting insurance review and consideration for coverage based on medical necessity and person-centered occupational therapy recommendations. Write in a respectful, professional tone suitable for communication with an insurance company. Do not invent clinical information. Only use the information provided. Do not claim that the device will prevent falls or guarantee improved outcomes. Instead, explain how it may reduce risk, support timely response after a fall, and facilitate safe participation in daily occupations. Do not fabricate clinical evidence or references. *Prompt with ChatGPT
