Kathy's Medical Software

As a physician, you need to know that your billing is being processed as efficiently as possible.  The bottom line - show me the money!  Does your staff waste valuable time working paper trails from your medical billing system to collect your accounts receivable?

Claims Vision is latest offering in our electronic package - a new web-based application that launches from Intergy or can be accessed directly through the Internet.  This tracks electronic claim history up to 15 months and provides a one stop shop to see the how/where/when and why of electronic billing.

These are just a few of the features Claims Vision offers:
 

• Multiple search options with fields for user defined data, including drill down to the claim level.
• At a glance view of claims accepted/rejected by the clearinghouse and payers.
• Request for Claims Review letter that defaults in the patient information and current claim status.
• Graphical dashboard allows you to track payer trends, view accepted/rejected ratios, claims dollars and top ten rejections of your claims.

Claims Vision is just another feature that is offered as part of our electronic package for our clients - does your medical office billing software measure up?  If you are not using features like electronic claims, automatic remittance posting, Claims Vision, ERA Manager or electronic statements, your staff is wasting valuable time that could be used to collect on your accounts.

Contact Bradford-Scott Data Corporation today and let us help you make the most of your practice.  We offer Intergy practice management (medical claims) and electronic medical records(EMR) by SAGE.
