The edgeMED Innovation Practice Management software is driven by Microsoft Window's to create a dynamic, robust and user-friendly system. Innovation is designed for use in solo or group Practices, as well as billing services. Whether in single or multiple site environments, Innovation incorporates everything that is needed to successfully perform vital tasks.
The scheduling system empowers staff to maintain all patient-related appointment information electronically. Using an unlimited array of appointment types, staff is able to quickly find and schedule specific appointments by individual patient needs. The check-in feature allows encounter forms to be generated as a patient arrives, while a recall can be stored to alert staff of an upcoming scheduled appointment. Innovation also incorporates a driver license card reader that allows patient information to be instantly imported into the system as the driver license is swiped. Sophisticated search tools, numerous views and reporting significantly improve scheduling while reducing cancellations and no-show's.
The system's financial features reduce billing costs and speed up collections by simplifying the insurance and patient billing process for each practice. Comprehensive financial information is detailed within each patient account, including past and current data, accounts receivable and collection activity along with a full financial audit trail. Charge-posting, co-payment's, insurance billing, refunds, adjustments, transfers, credits and collection detail, are all readily available tools to help manage financial data.
In addition, edgeMED's Innovation is equipped with a Preferred Diagnosis ingredient to guarantee claim acceptance by automatically verifying that an accurate and appropriate diagnosis code is attached. Innovation also authenticates the accuracy of insurance payments based upon the insurance fee schedule. Extensive financial reporting tools are a significant part of the system. A prime example is the Insurance Reimbursement Analysis, which determines the precise monies a practice is reimbursed for a specified doctor, by specific insurance company per selected procedure code. Hundreds of reports are quickly and easily generated in Innovation and may be viewed on-screen before printing. These tools and many more allow staff to dramatically improve the financial management of the practice.
With easy access to patient check-in, registration, scheduling, encounter form creation, statement generation, billing, collections and reporting, each practice is able to increase efficiency by streamlining workflow.
