Medical Billing Software: Medisoft Provides the Perfect Solution for Independent Practitioners

Running a small medical practice is like running any other small business. Billing, record-keeping, bookkeeping, scheduling and data maintenance all take up a share of work time. Unfortunately, although medical billing software in theory makes your life easier, sometimes it only seems to complicate it further. This can be especially true if your office uses separate programs for billing and health records.

Thankfully, it doesn’t have to be that way. McKesson, makers of Medisoft practice management software, now offers McKesson Practice Choice, a Web-based EHR (electronic health records) package that delivers financial, clinical and operational tools all in one database. Introduced in the fall of 2011, Practice Choice combines billing software with office management functions and clinical tools. The result? Less time spent on the drudgery of the back office and more time delivering the best possible care to your patients.

McKeeson has a stellar history. For 175 years, McKesson has been providing products and services to health care professionals. Its health care IT products are in use in more than 70% of hospitals and medical centers in the country. McKesson Medisoft, including Medisoft EMR and Medisoft Clinical, has set the standard for medical billing software and productivity software designed specifically with the needs of smaller practices and specialty medical practices in mind. In fact, McKesson Practice Choice provides all the bells and whistles employed by the biggest medical centers and combines them in a package that’s scalable and affordable for single providers and small practices.

Certified EHR

Practice Choice is certified for Stage 1 Meaningful Use, so providers who deploy and use the software can qualify for Medicare or Medicaid Meaningful Use incentives available under the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

34/7/365 Connectivity

You no longer have to be tied to the office. With this software, you can create patient notes and access patient data anywhere you have an Internet connection. This is especially useful for hospital, patient home and other site visits. You can transmit patient data, retrieve test results and instantly communicate with lab and other professionals.

Single Screen Charting

Smart Note technology features one-screen patient charts. This means that you can create your notes once and the information automatically populates throughout the patient chart. This goes far in eliminating transcription errors and frees up your time for more patient care.

Desktop, Tracking, and Reports

Medisoft EHR and medical billing software features easy, personalized navigation for every member of the medical staff. The welcome screen includes links to all applicable sections and tasks for each person, including a message center and task list. Staff can access scheduling and billing applications, pull up reports and enter data without having to navigate through a dozen sub-screens to reach what they need.

Moreover, the software enables you to track office activity, medical billing and claims submission from one screen. Your staff can call up patient information and verify insurance at check-in for smoother service delivery.

Automatic Backups and Updates

McKesson Practice Choice performs automatic backups in the cloud, so that your data is always available even if disaster. The software automatically updates, so your office is always in compliance with billing codes and reporting measures without having to waste precious staff time upgrading and updating your equipment and files.
