Recalls in Practice Manager – A Great Practice Revenue Builder!

Whether it’s for a follow up, a test, an immunization or any other reminder, Practice Manager Recalls can prevent your patients from falling through the cracks and potentially increase your revenue. With Recalls, you can track patients who need to be scheduled for follow-up visits. Learn more about this feature here.

Payer Inquiry Eligibility Checking

Are you paying to check Medicare eligibility? Are you still checking patient insurance eligibility one patient at a time? Are your patients forgetting to give you their new insurance information? In ChartMaker® Practice Manager you can check eligibility for one or multiple patients all at once. The information will pull from your existing Patient and Appointment information so you don’t have to type it for each patient. The best part is that there no fees so let us save you time and money. For more information, contact Practice Manager support.

MIPS – Targeted Review Deadline Extended

In addition to releasing MIPS performance feedback for 2017, CMS has launched a process known as targeted review which provides the opportunity for clinicians, groups, or those participating in certain APMs to request that CMS review their MIPS payment adjustment factor(s), if they believe there is an error with the 2019 MIPS payment adjustment calculation. If you believe an error still exists with your 2019 MIPS payment adjustment calculation, the targeted review process is available for you and the deadline has been extended to October 15, 2018 at 8:00pm (EDT). For more information on this process, visit the CMS Resources page.

As part of the nationwide effort to make these guidelines more widely known, please take a moment to review them and share with your fellow colleagues.

Testimonial on ChartMaker® Mobile

I wanted to send a quick note regarding Chartmaker Mobile App which has been such a help to us.  We are a solo practice so Gordon is always on call for himself.  When he is out of the office, Chartmaker Mobile allows Gordon to have all of the patient’s pertinent information at his fingertips.  Gordon and I were recently out of town, and when he talked with patients, having their allergies and pharmacy information made the follow up so much faster.  And you can hit the pharmacy number and the call is on its way.  The new addition of progress notes, labs, and diagnostics makes it even more useful. If you haven’t used the app yet, download it today!  Gordon & Karen Tussing  (Gordon P. Tussing DO, PC) Click here to sign up for the mobile app >>>
