Features And Services Offered By Medical Practice Management Software


by Magnolia P. Okuneva


There are a variety of medical practice management software companies available to help medical practitioners and their staff to manage patient records and carry out administrative and patient care services, so that they can focus on the health care part of medical care, instead of revenue cycles and other regulatory aspects that should be cared for by financial and administrative professionals. There are various features and services that make this possible, which we will consider below.

How a practice can manage bill collecting and insurance claims is something that most doctors are frequently worried about. The automated billing service included in many medical management software bundles take the work out of the process by automatically making patient appointments, billing insurance companies, keeping track of billing progress, and sending billing/payment updates to users so that they can track and change billing information whenever it may be necessary. Each of these steps is done in a professional and courteous way that maintains interpersonal relationships with patients and other professionals in the medical field.

Additionally, doctor's offices that use medical practice management software or program are often eligible to receive the recently implemented economic stimulus provided by the government to encourage public service growth in health care and other areas. If medical practices can prove that they make "meaningful use" of Electronic Health Records (EHR) software, they are eligible to receive economic stimulus from either of the governmental incentive programs (Medicare or the Medicaid) provided.

Many kinds of professional software is also interoperable, which means that each aspect of the software works together and allows health care providers to electronically access and exchange test results, summaries of care, medical histories, and other patient details with other clinical systems, organizations, or future providers. This saves the attending physician, his staff, and other medical professionals the time, energy, and manpower that they could otherwise spend filing, finding, and sending this information manually.

To make sure that you get the best services and quality software possible from the medical practice management software you pick, it is a good idea to look for a company that is certified as a "Complete EHR" provider by the Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT). Even though this is not an endorsement by the Department of Health and Human Services, or a guarantee that a health care establishment will qualify to receive an incentive plan, it does mean that HMR and EMR Software has been tested, proven to stand up to clinical quality tests, and is a dependable product.
