For physicians that want to focus on patient care and operate on a fixed percentage of cost in terms of revenue collections, MD Logic offers RCM (Revenue Cycle Management) services to increase cash flow, reduce the number of employees and maximize productivity for the clinic. The MD Logic RCM service combines the MD Logic EHR and PM software in combination with our revenue cycle management professionals.
Even with today’s latest technology, the vast majority of clinics find handing the patient a paper demographic form, HIIPA form, Promise to Pay Form, etc. the easiest way to manage the collecting of these forms. As patients are been seen in the clinic, they may also be required to complete additional documents for services that may be required during the visit. Handing a patient a form to be signed is a very simplistic process but it comes with a high labor cost.
If your clinic is still handing a clip board to your patients and requiring the patient to complete their health history (allergies, medications, past surgeries, problem lists, review of systems) then it is safe to assume that your staff is wasting thousands of hour each year re-entering this information into your EHR system. Having staff dedicate their time to enter this information into the EHR has become one of the biggest bottlenecks and headaches for clinics.
Regardless of the changes being pushed in healthcare by the federal government, the one thing that remains the same for all healthcare providers is time. In order to maximize profitability in medical / surgical practices, Physicians, PA’s, NPs, and PTs must look to implement technology that will accomplish (3) important tasks:
To meet the stringent requirements of MACRA & MIPS for 2017, physicians will be required to collect and record specific data for 90 consecutive days in the 4th QTR. To ensure our customers will meet these requirements, the MD Logic software engineers have successfully built the MACRA/MIPS requirements into our standard workflow of documenting patient care.
The impact the MD Logic Smart Phone app has had on our customers is nothing short phenomenal. It is one thing to develop a healthcare technology app but to develop an EHR app that a physician can master in five minutes is a huge success. Developing smart intuitive software is an art and based upon the feedback of our customers the MD Logic Phone app has become a critical technology solution for them.
Physicians that have never used MD Logic technology are always quick to judge what would and not work for their clinic. One such technology is the MD Logic Patient Kiosk Software. It is designed to eliminate the drudgery of handing patient clip board to complete patient medical history forms. Questions such as:
From day one, the MD Logic Software was developed to be used exclusively with touch screen technology. The Company began installing the MD Logic Software with touch screen monitors in exam rooms back in 1995. This was long before the iPhone, iPad and Microsoft Surface tablets came into the market. Back in 1995 customers were installing 15” monitors (not flat panels as they simply were not available at the time).
Regardless of the specialty of medicine, all physicians are equal when it comes to the amount of time they have each day in clinic. The efficiency of the physician in clinic has a direct impact on the revenue generated for the services provided. Implementing technology designed to streamline the workflow of the clinic can result in increased earning ranging between $75,000.00 to over $500,000.00 per year. This is made possible with the MD Logic Command Center.
With so much talk about Cloud computing physicians must work to educate themselves on Cloud technology as ultimately they are responsible for their patient’s health data. First of all there is no actual Cloud where the EHR software is being hosted. Cloud is simply a way of saying the EHR software is installed on another server somewhere outside of the clinic.
In the world of healthcare technology there are (2) options available for running EHR/PM software:
