STI Computer Services provides products and services to
Medical and Surgical Centers
With Covid-19 everything has changed. The global health crisis has caused a considerable financial burden on medical and surgical centers, and STI can help. We provide IT products and services to the medical and surgical center industry. STI’s Revenue Cycle Optimization (RCO) program includes billing with a free cloud-based system to run your center. The goal of the STI Revenue Cycle Optimization program is the division of labor between your staff and STI through the use of shared technology such as the cloud-based ChartMaker system, managed IT services, telemedicine, eFaxing, ePrescribing, integrated, digital telephone systems utilizing voice over IP technology, automated patient reminders utilizing telephone and texting software; all designed to move your medical or surgical center into the 21st century.
The fact of the matter is that there is just more work to do. You need to manage insurance claims, computer technology, ransomware attacks, Internet service, telephone management, patient referrals and authorizations. All the while you’re managing patient issues, like surgical preparation, scheduling, Electronic Medical Records, ePrescribing requirements, patient reminder calls, follow-up calls and recall, that require your staff to collect and manage more patient information.
How can Revenue Cycle Management Benefit Surgical Centers?
Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) can improve your cash flow and reduce your clerical costs. You share the EMR with a STI Revenue Cycle Partner who will provide insurance and patient billing, payment collection, and posting, as well as follow-up services at a percentage of collectable revenue. Revenue Cycle Optimization is the process of managing the healthcare revenue cycle that typically results in increased revenue collected, more compensation for physician owners, reduced surgery center costs, especially for computer technology, integration of Electronic Health Record (EHR) technology and more time for patient care. We provide several service options from full-service billing to Revenue Cycle Management. We can do all of your billing or if the medical center does a portion of it, we can also provide billing for what they don’t do. Billing services include: Medicare part A (facility) Medicare Part B (professional), and Commercial Insurance Anesthesia billing.
