Treatment Accountability

We have entered an era of treatment accountability. Historically it was enough to know the client (patient, offender or victim) completed their assigned treatment protocol. It was assumed when treatment (classes, meetings, counseling or psychotherapy) was completed, the client was better.


These assumptions are being challenged. Many people (courts, probation departments, evaluators, referral agencies, treatment staff, victims and others) including the patients and their families want to know if treatment was effective. And insurance carriers, managed care administrations, state and county overseers, program managers, regulators, oversight committees and tax payers also want to know if treatment was effective.

The Pre-Post Inventory helps answer the "Was treatment effective?" question. It’s 8 scale pre-post comparisons reflect client, patient, offender or victim change during treatment. The Pre-Post Inventory is a treatment effectiveness test.

Pre-Post Inventory
The Pre-Post Inventory is used when you want to know if counseling or treatment was successful. The same test is administered twice. The pretest (or 1st test) serves as a baseline for posttest comparison. Upon posttest, the computer compares pretest and posttest scale scores and generates a "Comparison Report."
Availability
The Pre-Post Inventory is only offered on the www.online-testing.com website. This means that the Pre-Post Inventory is available 24/7. Advantages include convenience, accessibility and affordability.
Pre-Post Rationale
The Pretest-posttest paradigm involves testing before and after treatment with pre-post differences attributed to the intervening treatment. One test is administered twice: once before treatment and then again upon treatment completion. The pretest serves as the baseline for posttest comparison.
