Medical Charting Software

 Even with all the talk about incentives and mandates, many are still wondering why they need an EHR system.  Here are just a few of the obvious reasons.

• Improved Coding - With better documentation tools, your coding will be more accurate, leading to better reimbursements.

• Storage - Keeping paper charts on-site takes up too much space and keeping them off-site takes up too much of your money.  

• e-Prescribing - Did you know that, on average, your staff spends 10 minutes handling prescription refill calls alone?  How many of these calls are they taking each day?  

• Malpractice Premiums - Some insurance carriers offer discounts to those providers using EHR.

• No More Chart Pulls - This one speaks for itself.  :)

If you wait until you are forced to implement an Electronic Health Records system, chances are that you'll end up with one that is not a good fit for your practice or specialty.  Start looking now and remember to look only at those that are CCHIT certified.

It's not a question of "if", it's a question of "when".

When you are shopping for a new EHR System, a very important functionality to ask about is the Lab Portal feature. A lap portal allows you to connect to your Lab through your Practice Management or EHR System. This will also directly import lab results to your chart and allow for flowsheet tracking on each component or test.

Lab Portal Services is not only a great enhancement for the provider but is also a requirement in meeting meaningful use and achieving the EMR Stimulus Credit.  Bradford-Scott Data Corp is already affiliated with many labs across the United States. This will allow for an immediate connection to your Lab through your EHR system.

Using an EHR System with Lab Portal capabilities will not only allow you to receive your EHR stimulus but also a great time saver and will free up your clinical staff to preform other duties.

This week Bradford-Scott Data Corp traveled to Ohio to implement our EHR System at an OBGYN Medical Practice.  The practice has three providers and a supportive clinical staff. Bradford-Scott has done much research on how to successfully implement an EHR System and we find that taking a client live in two phases is usually the best method. This gives them time to absorb the information they are trying to learn and then use it in a live atmosphere.

Here are a few of the EMR System features that they are currently using:

• Patient Flow Tracking
• Electronic RX or E-prescribe
• EHR progress note documenting
• Orders
• Recording Vitals
• Charge Submission
• EM Coding
• Tasking and Phone Messaging

After the days on site, one of the providers felt that they had a good start on understanding and using the EHR system. They focused on the GYN side of the practice and are currently entering all of their patient information for their GYN visits in the system.

One of the favorite features was the phone messaging. The providers felt as if they were able to concentrate more on the visits and answer phone messages when available instead of constantly being interrupted. Plus the system keeps a history of phone messages in each patient chart. This allows them to easily see repeat issues for that patient.

The Intergy Practice Portal provides an online communication solution between your patients and your medical practice. Access to the portal is as simple as opening a web browser. Through a secure login, your patients can access real-time information right out of your system.

Not only can the patient access practice specific information such as office hours, locations, etc. but also the following features:

• Patient Specific Medical Information
• Personal Medications
• Pharmacies
• Health Conditions
• Online Patient Services
• New Patient Registration
• Appointment Requests
• Prescription Refill Requests
• Pre Visit Forms

Another feature is secure messaging that will allow you to communicate with patients about lab results and action plans straight from the Intergy EHR system.  Any information in the secure messaging can also be saved easily in the patients medical chart for future reference.

 Albany Obstetrics and Gynecology knew they needed to make some changes to streamline and improve the management of their practice.

The Problems:

• Albany Obstetrics and Gynecology outsourced their billing.  Since the billing was handled outside the practice, they had to wait to get financial reports, and they never seemed to come back in time to adequately manage the practice.
• They were using a "homegrown" scheduling system.  "It was more like a scheduling book on a computer screen", said Jane Quinlan, Practice Administrator.
• They were using paper charts.  This created problems and consumed too much time when they had to pull charts for patient information, address billing concerns, and phone inquiries from patients, pharmacists, and other physicians. 

The Solution:  Intergy Practice Management and EHR (Electronic Health Records).

With Intergy Practice Management and EHR, Ms. Quinlan explained, "I was pleased to see that I could get data the way I wanted it.  It was part of the Sage Software family so I knew they had the resources to continue to develop the product to meet our current and future needs."

The Results:

• Albany Obstetrics and Gynecology experienced 20% fewer missed appointments
• Patient information became increasingly more up to date
• Verifying coverage for patients reduced denied claims by as much as 70%
• The days in accounts receivable has been reduced to less than 30
• Phone nurses quickly accessed/updated information - relieving front desk congestion
• With EHR, paper charts aren't needed, saving over 3 hours per day in chart pulls
• Physicians are able to view patient information from outside the office

"It's invaluable that the physicians can look at patient records when they are on call, especially being able to see lab results," Ms. Quinlan stated, "this is the way to go for anyone that wants to take their practice to a point where you can truly operate electronically to the benefit of the entire staff.  We have the ability to access and update information from anywhere in the practice or from the Web and the ability to manage data so that we can see what is happening in our practice whenever we need it."

There is Government Stimulus Money to be had!  Are you in interested in being a recipient?  If so, you must implement and prove "Meaningful Use" prior to 2014 to get anything.  And, the sooner you participate, the more money you will be eligible for.

However, what is "Meaningful Use"?  Well, the government has put out a proposed list of 25 stage one objectives for meeting Meaningful Use with any EHR System:

1. Use CPOE
2. Implement drug-drug, drug-allergy, drug-formulary checks
3. Maintain an up-to-date problem list of current and active diagnoses based on ICD-9-CM or SNOMED CT
4. Generate and transmit permissible prescriptions electronically
5. Maintain an active medication list
6. Maintain an active allergy list
7. Record demographics: preferred language, insurance type, gender, race, ethnicity, and date of birth
8. Record and chart changes in vital signs: height, weight, blood pressure, calculate and display: BMI, and plot and display growth charts for children 2-20 years, including BMI
9. Record smoking status for patients 13 years old or over
10.  Incorporate clinical lab-test results into EHR as structured data
11.   Generate lists of patients by specific conditions to use for quality improvement, reduction of disparities and outreach
12.   Report ambulatory quality measures to CMS or the States
13.   Send reminders to patients per the patient's preference for preventive/follow up care
14.   Implement five clinical decision support rules relevant to specialty or high clinical priority, including diagnostic test ordering, along with the ability to track compliances with those rules
15.   Check insurance eligibility electronically from public and private payers
16.   Submit claims electronically to public and private payers
17.   Provide patients with an electronic copy of their health information (including diagnostic test results, problem list, medication lists, allergies), upon request
18.   Provide patients with timely electronic access to their health information (including lab results, problem list, medication lists, allergies) within 96 hours of the information being available to the EP
19.   Provide clinical summaries for patients for each office visit
20.   Capability to exchange key clinical information (for example, problem list, medication list, allergies, diagnostic test results), among providers of care and patient authorized entities electronically
21.   Perform medication reconciliation at relevant encounters and each transition of care
22.   Provide summary care record for each transition of care and referral
23.   Capability to submit electronic data to immunization registries and actual submission where required and accepted
24.   Capability to provide electronic syndromic surveillance data to public health agencies and actual transmission according to applicable law and practice
25.   Protect electronic health information created or maintained by the certified EHR technology through the implementation of appropriate technical capabilities

Although these objectives have not been finalized, you should be considering whether your current EHR System can handle them.  Our Intergy by Sage EHR Software CAN meet all 25 objectives.  If you would like peace of mind, contact Bradford Scott Data Corporation for more information.

Missing your security blanket with EMR? 

Let's face it, most physicians are not ready to commit to an electronic medical record system (EMR).

A big portion of this unrest is due to change.  As a physician you have probably been documenting your charts and following almost the same office flow since you left medical school.  Any changes in the office have not really impacted how you actually practice medicine.

It's time to face your fears and our Intergy software can help you make this transition.

SAGE Intergy EHR V5.5 is CCHIT 2008 certified and has templates for specialties like cardiology, orthopedics, OB/GYN as well as family practice, pediatrics, internal medicine and others.  These templates can be easily customized to fit your workflow.

Another distinct advantage of Intergy is the Medcin database.  The system will recommend and E & M coding value utilizing the Medcin findings selected in your encounter.  Many physicians find that they have been under coding and that leads to better reimbursement - as well as security in the event of an audit.

Besides the efficiencies you will gain using an EMR, there is also stimulus money available for providers who meet the criteria - icing on the cake!

Contact Bradford-Scott Data Corporation and let our medical consultant team give you the confidence to make a change.

What type of system do you suppose the Doctors and scientist working at the Smithsonian Institute would prefer? As an avid viewer of the Bones series I know they use the latest and greatest research software and techniques available. They can reconstruct a complete skeleton with just a few bones and some x-rays. Weekly, we see them come up with the face of the victim from just the skull or even pieces of the skull. They do amazing work each week. Yes, it is T.V. and viewers expect them to be able to do the unexpected. But I am sure that Temperance Brennan "Bones" would only settle for the most relevant EHR software. Not only would the Smithsonian Institute want to use the best equipment they could afford but since the lab works with the FBI consistently, the government would also want them to use contemporary software. Bones would certainly want to check out Intergy by Sage before making an educated discussion about which EHR software to choose. I am sure that she would want to act now while there is Stimulus money available, instead of waiting until she was mandated to purchase an EHR system. She would want to be able to use government funds and buy now instead of waiting until later and paying more. An investment made today is always worth more than an investment made in the future, and now there is a government stimulus to help offset those initial software costs. Bones would want access to images like these;

 Sharon Pizzato, and the physicians at Carraway Internal Medicine Associates, needed a new Practice Management solution.  Their practice management system no longer met HIPAA standards and they would have had to buy all new equipment to upgrade to the free replacement offered by their vendor.  Knowing that Electronic Health Records (EHRs) are the future, Sharon decided to look into systems that could cover both and ended up with the integrated Intergy EHR and Practice Management system.

"After looking at about a dozen solutions, we narrowed it down to three," explains Pazzato.  "Of those three, Intergy by Sage offered the most integrated system with a flow that we really liked."  

The savings, both cost and time, that they experienced were amazing.

"We were spending about $250 a month just in new chart supplies, which has been eliminated now, as has most of our storage space.  We just have a small room with charts that we have to keep, but no one ever really goes in there, except to get things like Christmas decorations!"

Carraway Internal Medicine has also seen a big difference in overall workflow and efficiency as well as transcription costs.  They have shifted staff resources, their coding has improved, and they are saving $600 per month in transcription costs.

"The charge capture piece is great," says Dr. Carraway-Handley.  "It's nice to be able to see when I haven't entered any charges.  That may only be three patients a month that we miss charges on, but the system catches it and I get a task and I finish the encounter and close it.  Things just don't get missed.  And, the overall level of coding has certainly gone up.  I was all level three before and now I'm almost all level four.  One of the things that is so great about Intergy is that anyone can learn to use it and fit it into their personal style."

I found this on hhs.gov and thought that it may be helpful to some of you. EHRs (Electronic Health Records) are here and isn't going anywhere.  Now is the time to get serious because it isn't a question of why anymore, it is the reality of when.   Call Bradford-Scott today and we'll walk you through it all to ensure that you receive the maximum amount of incentives available to you!

1. Include a DUNS Number. A DUNS Number must be included in order for an application to be reviewed.  DUNS numbers can be obtained by accessing www.dunandbradstreet.com or by calling 1-866-705-5711. Include the DUNS number next to the OMB Approval Number, which is located in the upper right corner of the application face page.
2. Keep the audience in mind. Reviewers will use only the information contained in the application to assess the application. Therefore, the applicant should be sure the application and responses to the program requirements and expectations are complete and clearly written. Do not assume that reviewers are familiar with the applicant organization. Keep the review criteria in mind when writing the application. 
3. Start preparing the application early. If applying electronically through Grants.gov please ensure that adequate time is allotted to register and download applicable software and forms. Grants.gov offered a "Webcast" (registration required) entitled "Get Started with Grants.gov" that provides start-up requirements and tips.
4. Follow the instructions and application guidance carefully. The instructions call for a particular organization of the materials, and reviewers are accustomed to finding information in specific places. Present information according to the prescribed format.
5. Be brief, concise, and clear. Make each point understandable. Provide accurate and honest information, including candid accounts of problems and realistic plans to address them. If any required information or data is omitted, explain why. Make sure the information provided in each table, chart, attachment, etc., is consistent with the proposal narrative and information in other tables. 
6. Be organized and logical. Many applications fail because the reviewers cannot follow the thought process of the applicant or because parts of the application do not fit together. 
7. Be careful in the use of appendices. Do not use the appendices for information that is required in the body of the application. Be sure to cross-reference all tables and attachments located in the appendices to the appropriate text in the application. 
8. Carefully proofread the application. Misspellings and grammatical errors will impede reviewers in understanding the application. Be sure pages are numbered (including appendices) and that page limits are followed. Limit the use of abbreviations and acronyms, and define each one at its first use and periodically throughout application.

An EHR is like a good pair of shoes – you want them to fit right or you are going to feel the pain. And let’s face it, selecting the right EMR system and practice management system for your practice is not an easy task – particularly for practitioners who may not have IT expertise. Plus, there are more than 400 vendors of EHR/EMR products on the market today. It’s important to exercise caution and perform a thorough due diligence, but where should you start?

Bradford Scott Data Corp believes we have an amazing product that will truly improve your practice’s efficiencies and profitability, and we only want you to buy our software if it’s the “right fit” for you. We’ve got the insight of 25+ years of experience in the field of health information technology. But don’t just take our word for it. We encourage you to check our personal Provider references and letters.

Look at the whole practice – front and back office, not just at the providers. Now, visualize what your “fixed” processes would look like. So what were your “fixes”? Never needing to search for lost charts – with an EHR, your charts are always a click away. Answering telephone inquiries – with charts immediately available, response times are much quicker. Improperly coded claims causing a delay in payment – with claim scrubbing capabilities you can get paid more quickly.

Now you are ready to start approaching vendors and looking for the practice management and EHR solution that best fits the needs of your practice. If the vendor does not suit you, cross them off your list and continue to the next vendor. And don’t forget to demo the software. Have a vendor representative walk you through how the software works, and ask lots of questions! Once you have a shortlist of vendors, consider the following and make your decision.

1. What is involved in product implementation?
2. Is the implementation process disruptive to your day-to-day operations?
3. What kind of training is available?
4. What is the response time if you have problems next week or next year?
5. How long has the company been around?
6. What are the hardware requirements – will it require you to buy new systems?
7. Who is responsible for data back-ups?
8. How will the data be securely stored to protect your patients’ privacy?
9. How often will the software/hardware need to be upgraded and what will this cost?
10. Is the solution scalable as your practice grows?

By now, you have a couple of vendors who are standing out from the rest. The functionality meets the needs of your practice and you are starting to get excited about how the new practice management software and EHR solution can help your practice. Now it’s time to get references and ask your peers what they think about the software. Here are some questions you can ask:

1. How smooth was the implementation?
2. How well was training conducted?
3. What do you like best about the software?
4. What do you like least about the software?

Hopefully this has helped to further narrow your selection. Remember that you get what you pay for and you shouldn’t waste your time on products that don’t meet the needs you identified at the beginning of the process. Focusing on cost first could rule out some of the best products and minimize your chance to find the best solution that maximizes your potential gains – giving you a shoe that just doesn’t fit.

Indianapolis is in the middle of our first big winter storm and the drive into work was nothing but start, stop, and slide.  For most of the people at Bradford-Scott Data Corporation, it took about 2 or 3 times their normal drive-in time. 

That made me think of the differences between paper charting and electronic medical records.  Paper charting, messages, and the hunt for the missing chart all add up to more time and more cost to you as the physician.

Make the change to Electronic Medical Records (EMR) with Intergy by SAGE and watch the changes unfold in your practice:

• Charts are available in seconds
• Flowsheets show trends
• Patient health reminders
• Tasking messages, results and sign-offs can all be done with a few simple clicks and are documented for the patient chart
• Electronic prescriptions

Suddenly, your office is becoming more efficient, patient care and follow-up is improved and your reimbursement level is increasing as all findings, treatment plans are documented and checked for coding levels in the Medcin database. 

Not only is Sage Intergy EHR V5.5 is CCHIT 2008 certified, templates are available for over 25 specialties that can also be customized for your workflow - including Cardiology, Pediatrics, Orthopedics, OB-GYN as well as Family Practice.  

As a Channel Partner for SAGE, we offer Intergy EMR, Intergy Practice Management along with Enterprise medical software capability and Practice Analytic software.  Give Bradford-Scott Data Corporation a call and let our medical consulting staff get you started!

New Year's Eve is almost here, so it's time to party!   After the parties, it's time to make New Year's resolutions (you know, the usual  list that somehow stays the same next year).  

This year, make a difference!  Make implementing an electronic medical record software package(EMR) number 1!

Now is the best possible time to make a change-

• Implementing EMR in 2010 will put you on the inside track with the ARRA stimulus package.  Money is available on a per physician basis for implementing meaningful use of an EMR software.  The grant money will be distributed over a 5 year period, but early adopters in 2010 can qualify for a higher return the first year.

• Yes, there is an initial learning curve, but once you take the plunge, you will notice increased efficiency, better reimbursement due to correct coding/documentation of your notes, improved patient care and instant access of charts.

Contact Bradford-Scott Data Corporation  and let our medical consultants show you how Intergy EMR by SAGE can make a difference in your office.  Sage Intergy EHR V5.5 is CCHIT 2008 certified and has over 25 specialty templates including cardiology, pediatrics, and orthopedics, just to mention a few,  that can be customized for your workflow.  Let our trainers help you maximize your workflow electronically and start the new year right!

 You're busy and you need an electronic health records system (EHR) that can not only keep pace, but that is specific to your specialty!  One that provides instant access to images, and the ability to quickly document key physical exam findings, range of motion measurements, and pain scale values.  

With Intergy EHR by Sage, orthopedic practices can:

• Move quickly between patients, accessing multiple open charts at once 
• Streamline documentation by using encounter note templates, customized for each major joint, the spine, and physical therapy evaluations 
• Record measurements for range of motion and capture values for pain scales 
• Document tests performed and include physicians' assessments of results 
• Improve inter-office communication, particularly for offices with diagnostic capabilities such as X-ray, MRI and CT 
• Use health reminders and alerts for preventive treatments 
• Easily add, change or renew medications and use medication "favorites" by diagnosis

That's not all! Sage Intergy EHR V5.5 is CCHIT 2008 certified and meets all of the requirements for stimulus (ARRA) rebates! Couple all of that with the outstanding service and support from Bradford-Scott and you can't lose!  We are a turnkey operation providing software, hardware and training, as well as implementation and support to our clients. All of this, plus exceptional customer service, results in accomplishments becoming less feasible for our competitors.

The Government has slated billions of dollars in stimulus money for physicians that can exhibit "meaningful use" of a certified EHR system within the next few years.  Each provider in your practice can expect as much as $44,000.00 of stimulus money for purchasing an EHR and providing such "meaningful use".  But, what does "meaningful use" mean?  Well, we really don't know for sure, at this point.  The Government is still in the process of figuring that out.  What we do know if that you will need to be on an EHR system no later than 2014 to receive any of the stimulus money.  And, the longer you wait, the less you will get.  Going a step further, if you choose to not implement an EHR system in your practice, you will begin receiving a decrease in Medicare reimbursements.

At Bradford-Scott Data Corporation, we offer an EHR system, Intergy by Sage, that we believe will meet all the requirements to qualify for the stimulus package.  Our product will offer you the following:

• Sage Intergy EHR V5.5 is CCHIT 2008 certified
• Integration to our Intergy by Sage Practice Management Software
• Electronic Prescriptions
• Electronic Labs
• Templates for all types of provider specialties
• A Specialized OB chart to track pregnancies
• Backup of the Medcin Database to ensure you are coding your visits appropriately
• Paperless patient charts
• Secure access to your patient's medical records

These are just a few of the many options you will receive with our Intergy EHR Product.  Please visit us at www.bradfordscott.com for more information.  Don't wait too long and miss out on the money you could receive.

I have to say that on the whole, we really are a funny race - simply because we are so contradictory.  Take a look around and you will see someone with an ipod, cell phone, playing video games, watching TV or using a computer - after all, it is the age of technology.  Right?

Hmm,  look at the health industry.  When it is so vital that the patients' information about their condition, medicines, etc be accurate and available, we are bound by columns of paper charts(if you can find them),  sticky notes for patient messages,  illegible notes and prescriptions. 

What is everyone waiting for?  Here are some of the reasons I've heard:

• No time
• Costs too much
• Heard too many stories of failed implementations

Stop and take a look at the facts.

Studies have shown that using an electronic medical records system, EMR, will increase your efficiency, decrease office costs and improve patient care.

Still concerned about cost?  The American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA) offers an incentive (up to $44,000 over 5 years) for physicians to implement an approved electronic medical record system.

Failed implementations?  yes, there are some out there.  A successful implementation takes 2 things - 

• commitment from the office - from the doctor on down     and 
• a vendor who provides excellent support and training

Bradford Scott Data Corporation has a reputation of providing excellence to our customers for over 25 years.  Our medical team has what you need to provide consulting, training and ongoing support to help you get the most value out of your system - customized for your practice.  Talk to one of our medical consultants today and find out how you can make a change!

Kids are great!  They say the darnedest things and keep us all young.  They are just little people, but need very different care.  Pediatrics is a very important specialty of medicine and Pediatrics EMR (Electronic Medical Records) or EHR (Electronic Health Records) can make your practice even more special.  Our Sage Intergy EHR product is designed to handle a myriad of specialties, including pediatrics.  To help you care for your little people, it will provide you:

Fires, Floods, and Tornadoes can happen to anyone.  What would happen to your practice if you experienced any one of these natural disasters?  Would your patient's charts survive?  How would you rebuild them if they did not?  How would you continue to treat your patients effectively without their medical records?  These are all very important questions you should be asking yourself.
