Managing patient paperwork, collections, patient records, and billing usually takes a medical practice a lot of time and expertise. You can simplify these time-consuming aspects of medical practice management with an up to date patient management software system, such as an EMR. An EMR is an Electronic Medical Recorder System that keeps track of records and reports digitally (in a master database) instead of with traditional paper filing systems.
Major benefits of EMR Systems include lowered operational cost, decreased need for filing space, and a decrease in the amount of time spent doing note taking, documentation, admission notes, and the filing of these notes. Here are some of the other benefits of using an Electronic Medical Recorder System.
Advantages of using an Electronic Medical Recorder System
1- Access and share patient medical records from any location (hospital, clinic, transfer to other offices, etc.)
2- Lessen the occurrence of manual coding errors, medical malpractice, and other accidental problems.
3- Streamlines the billing process, generating automated bills and billing cycles.
4- Decreased need for additional staff members supporting doctors at a clinic (an Electronic Medical Recorder System can reduce the number of full time employees by fifty percent)
5- Decreases the amount of medical prescription errors due to conflicting prescriptions or underlying medical conditions
6- Easily adjusts to changes made to HIPAA and other regulations.
7- Opens up extra rooms and space in an office previously used for large filing cabinets of manual filing chart systems.
8- Allows clinics and doctor offices to keep track of processes, including billing cycles.
