What’s the REAL Cost of Not Getting Certified?

Let’s be blunt…

In rehab, all it takes is one moment:

  • A patient incident.

  • A missing line of documentation.

  • A complaint.

  • A surprise audit.

That’s when it starts.

And here’s what it could cost you:

  • $5,000–$25,000+ in legal fees to defend your license

  • $6,250/month or more in lost income during suspension

  • $1,000–$3,000/year in insurance premium hikes

  • A permanent public record that limits future jobs, contracts, or leadership role

Even if you win, you lose.

That’s why hundreds of professionals are getting certified as Certified Rehab Risk Specialists (CRRS) — not just for the credential, but to protect everything they’ve worked for.

Invest $797 Now…

…or risk losing $25,000+ and your career later.

Which sounds smarter?

Every rehab clinician faces risk — whether from documentation gaps, informed consent issues, patient complaints, or unexpected outcomes.

Most clinicians are never taught how to protect themselves against these realities. You’re left to figure it out on your own, often only after something has already gone wrong.

.

We built the Rehab Risk Management Certification (RRMC) to fill that gap.

Rehab professionals deserve clear, practical guidance on risk management — not just vague policies or dense compliance manuals.

Reduce Your Risk. Expand Your Impact.


image.png

You became a rehab professional to change lives — not to lose sleep over complaints, audits, or one mistake derailing your career.

But the reality is:

  • Every patient interaction carries risk — clinical, legal, and professional.

  • One gap in documentation or process can put your license on the line.

  • It’s not enough to “do good therapy” — you need systems and strategies that keep you protected.

The RRMC + Write It Right CEU Course shows you how to:

  • Anticipate and mitigate risks before they escalate

  • Document with clarity and defensibility while staying efficient

  • Apply informed consent, HIPAA, mandated reporting, and termination correctly

  • Build a risk mindset for leadership, business growth, and long-term career stability
