PT Documentation in Cloud EMR

Most physical therapists view SOAP NOTES as an optional agenda, that it can be deferred, or that it is simply too overwhelming.  Furthermore, the notion that SOAP software usage requires a fair amount of computer skill and a supposed high maintenance cost keeps many PT groups from realizing the benefits of a fully automated practice.

Per Medical Economics, the annual cost of maintaining a paper chart is $16 per year in comparison to an electronic chart which is estimated at $2 per chart.  Additionally, with the increased complexity of payer documentation requirements, ever reducing reimbursements and rising cost pressure across the board calls for efficiency in the documentation process. 

Granted, implementing and learning a documentation tools can be both painful and invasive, and has a tendency to initially cause latency during the initial 6 to 8 weeks of ramp-up time; however the value that electronic documentation brings can be immense and invaluable to any practice that operates in the current high pressure environments of cost and compliance.

PracticeSuite has a full Physical Therapy SOAP NOTES and PT billing software that is fully web based, cost effective, easy to use and to adapt. It's unique and proprietary charting tool is intuitive, easy and resembles paper charting. This SOAP NOTES software can be purchased as a monthly subscription.

Cloud computing and its benefits

Web-based systems (also called cloud computing or cloud based), are becoming more prevalent. As you can see, there are numerous advantages of cloud computing, the most basic ones being remote accessibility, quick re-provisions, Reduced Cost, Cloud technology is paid incrementally, saving organizations money, Increased Storage, Organizations can store more data than on private computer systems, Employees can access information wherever they are, rather than having to remain at their desks. Allows IT to Shift Focus. With advances in computer technology, healthcare facilities have more room to work because the space that used to be taken up by computers and servers is no longer necessary for managing patient data, a handy metaphor for cloud computing is this: when you plug in a light at home.

Some of the  Cloud Services are: 

SaaS (Software as a Service): SaaS is the most popular form of cloud services. The service provider offers software to support the service on offer. The software is built by the service provider while the end users can configure it to suit their needs. The clients (end users) however, cannot change or modify the software. Mozy is an example of SaaS. This is where you pay a monthly subscription fee to access the EMR system. You do not purchase it. Nor do you need to purchase a server. (Applications that work like this include Salesforce and QuickBooks online.) These are known as SaaS (Software as a Service).

PaaS (Platform as a Service): Offers a platform to clients for different purposes. For example, the Windows Azure offers a platform to developers to build, test, and host applications that can be accessed by the end users. The end users may or may not know that the application is hosted on the cloud. As mentioned earlier, the storage space for user data may be increased or decreased per the requirement of the applications. As with the SaaS, you do not need to build the platform. You just pay a nominal fee for using the service.

IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Offers infrastructure on demand. The infrastructure can be anything from storage servers to applications to operating systems. When you opt for IaaS, you save a lot on expenses, space, and personnel required to set up and maintain the infrastructure.

How web based Physical Therapy Billing Software helps in PT practices?

We can say that the billing system is the life blood of personal practice. The billing system keeps the revenue flowing that in turn keeps the business going. Most physical therapists want to treat patients and not deal with the billing.
Not only can the software manage physical therapy billing coding, it can help schedule appointments, manage records, and provide forms needed for patient intake or follow up.  A few of the versions on the market can even help you market your practice to patients.  No matter which software you choose to help manage physical therapy billing coding, this change can make a big difference in the survival and growth of your private practice.
Important features of web-based PT software are as follows:
1.      Access patient information anywhere, anytime. Once patient information is documented it is available for staff to see no matter where they are.
2.      Speedier return on investment. Electronic, Web-based physical therapy software doesn’t require storage areas and filing cabinets for patient records, which frees up office space and the personnel needed to file and pull records.
3.      More professional image.
4.      Data protection by keeping patient’s information and documentation on secure servers.
5.      Increased billing accuracy. Accurate and complete documentation helps you file claims properly the first time for quicker claim reimbursement.

Physical therapy coding can be prepared by a professional who is a team member in your clinic, either in house or someone who works from home. There are an increasing number of individual contractors who offer this service, sparing you the cost of hiring physical therapy coding personnel as full time members of your business. 
Preventing physical therapy billing coding errors can not only save you the headache of dealing with insurance companies, it is also the greatest way to ensure a steady flow of cash into your practice.  No matter how you choose to handle physical therapy coding, ensure that you are comfortable with your billing procedures.  Many therapists spend more than seven percent of their revenues to handle physical therapy billing coding, but if you have the right system in place, this can be money well spent.

How chiropractic care is useful?


Shoulder pain and neck pain are common complaints that chiropractors treat on a daily basis. Chiropractic care is a very effective non-surgical approach that addresses the mechanical or spinal alignment and neurological causes of pain. The use of the Internet has an impact on today's chiropractic practice. Distribution of digital medical images allows you to consult with physicians located anywhere there is Internet access and the appropriate hardware and medical billing software, which also enables improved patient care. Chiropractors are trained in diagnosis and treatment of many neuro-musculo-skeletal disorders. When once a diagnosis is reached the appropriate type of spinal manipulation, physiotherapy and rehabilitative exercises would be chosen for your specific condition.

Role of the Medical billing services

What is medical billing?


The medical billing process is an interaction between a health care provider and the insurance company (payer). The entirety of this interaction is known as the billing cycle. The interaction begins with the office visit: a doctor or their staff will typically create or update the patient's medical record. This record contains a summary of treatment and demographic information including, but not limited to, the patient's name, address, social security number, home telephone number, work telephone number and their insurance policy identity number etc.. If the patient is a minor then guarantor information of a parent or an adult related to the patient will be appended. Upon the first visit, the provider will usually give the patient one or more diagnoses in order to better coordinate and streamline their care. In the absence of a definitive diagnosis, the reason for the visit will be cited for the purpose of claims filing. The patient record contains highly personal information, including the nature of the illness, examination details, medication lists, diagnoses, and suggested treatment.
Chiropractic billing services makes use of medical billing software and most of them have specific software for chiropractic practices. This software tracks and process claims electronically which makes the claims get paid much faster. In fact really fast since most of the claims gets paid in just ten days instead of six weeks if you do the usual paper claims. But as always, software alone cannot accomplish but expert chiropractic billers in the filing procedures and diagnostic coding is the key.
A practice that has interactions with the patient must now under HIPAA send most billing claims for services via electronic means. Prior to actually performing service and billing a patient, the care provider may use software to check the eligibility of the patient for the intended services with the patient's insurance company.
 In many cases, particularly as a practice grows beyond its initial capacity to cope with its own paperwork, providers farm out their medical billing process to a third party known as a Medical Billing Service. These entities promise to reduce the burden of paperwork for medical staff and recoup lost efficiencies caused by workload saturation, paving the way for further practice growth.
