Chhoda, Provides Clinicians with Latest Compelling Reasons for Implementing an Integrated EMR System
Denville, NJ (PRWEB) October 12, 2013 -- “An integrated EMR software reduces waste, encourages efficiency and is good for the environment. EMRs are expensive, but they pay for themselves in short order through better patient care, expedited reimbursement claims, and the portability needed to expand into new markets,” said Chhoda.
He said that an integrated EMR is essential for practices. While basic electronic health record (EHR) software provides exceptional documentation, an integrated system is necessary to increase a practice’s overall efficiency, productivity and profitability. An EMR compatible with mobile technology enables clinic owners to expand into new and lucrative venues.
The system EMR provides secure electronic storage for all the practice’s information in the cloud. Data is backed up automatically, eliminating the need for paper records and physical storage space. Therapists can chart the client’s visit and create a complete physical therapy documentation as it’s occurring instead of hours later. Digitally stored records can speak for patients in an emergency, are accessible by multiple providers, and don’t rely on paper files that can be lost or misplaced.
According to Chhoda, date and time stamps provide the means for practitioners to monitor staff for behaviors that waste time and allow clinic owners to schedule staff where they’re the most effective. The materials required to create, store and maintain paper records is eliminated for substantial cost savings. It’s convenient for clinicians and easy on the environment.
He added that an integrated EMR allows therapists to complete reimbursement requests in record time for better cash flow. The systems have the ability to notify billing personnel if potential problems are found that would result in a denial or rejection of reimbursements, and submit claims electronically.
The new information provided by Chhoda offers clinicians essential information on the abilities of their electronic medical records and how the systems can benefit every department within a practice. Digital storage, expedited charting, electronic reimbursement submission, and a system that’s environmentally friendly are just a few of the advantages for practitioners employing an EMR. They’ll also experience significant savings, increased productivity and the ability to expand their practice into new and exciting arenas.
The new insights provided by Chhoda offers clinic owners with innovative ways to utilize their EMR, while demonstrating the importance of follow up marketing. Practice owners with an integrated EMR have access to the most innovative system currently available to facilitate the marketing process, attract patients in new ways, and make clinics more profitable.
