When it comes to EHR technology, there are (2) options available in the healthcare market. For companies that only provide Cloud Based EHR, they will adamantly insist that Cloud Based EHR is a much better option compared to Server Based EHR. Is this the truth or simply a sales line from the EHR Company? What is the difference between EHR Cloud and EHR Server based systems. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of Cloud and Server Based EHR solutions.

Unlike every other business in the country, physicians are the only business that has seen huge reductions in their fees. To counter these reductions, physicians must see more patients in the same amount of time. Unfortunately for most physicians, the healthcare market is littered with cumbersome non-productive EHRs that simply slow down physicians and staff while killing productivity.

For most doctors the option of being able to take medical photos is a welcomed idea but the steps involved in getting these photos to the patients electronic health record remains a cumbersome roadblock. Fortunately there is a company that has simplified the process and has made taking medical photos fast, efficient, secure and completely automated. As the leading U.S.

Since the federal government decided to blow billions on big money giveaway’s to doctors that implemented EHR technology, the EHR market has become nothing more than a hindrance to most doctors and their staff. The EHR certification seal has given doctors a false sense of security when investing in an EHR. Just because an EHR can generate a report or pass a test does not mean it will be productive for a practice.

Are your healthcare providers still using charge tickets to check-off the charges and diagnosis for each patient visit? If so your practice has what we call “exposure”. Practices that still use paper charge tickets run the greatest risk of failing a chart audit due to services that are billed not being documented in the patient chart. The only way to eliminate exposure is to have the documentation generated by the EHR software drive the patient charges.

It seems like only yesterday that all healthcare providers in the United States were apprehensive and worried about having to begin coding using ICD-10 back on October 1, 2015. The good news for many was the agreement by Medicare and several other private payers to delay denial of claims and suspend chart audits based on lack of specificity of the ICD–10 code(s). Beginning October 1, 2016 this “grace period” ends. The question for many is what should you do now?

Excitement continues to build as more customers receive the MD Logic 2nd generation Smart Phone App. The new app is now in the hands of physicians, PA, NPs, PTs, administrators, office managers and key staff members that require 24/7 access to patient health records.

Believe it or not, patients like to hear from their healthcare providers. Only 8 percent of doctor visits make up annual checkups. The average visit takes around 23 minutes which means the doctors in the U.S. spend approximately 17 million hours each year on annual check-ups. Ensuring your patients are contacted for annual checkups can be a full time job for most clinics and an added expense.

In healthcare patients are still handed forms to be filled-out and signed each day. A common form that requires the most time is typically the patient demographic (name, address, contact information, insurance information, etc.) form.
