HEALTHCARE MADE COST-EFFECTIVE WITH HEALTHTEC’S MEDICAL BILLING SOFTWARE
San Antonio, Texas – HealthTec’s Medical Billing Software has made healthcare more profitable by means of ameliorating staff productivity, limiting errors, and allowing more time spent with patients.
HealthTec’s Medical Billing Software is designed by the company to make healthcare work at its optimum. It is innovated flawlessly, almost close to perfection in order to provide the physicians, nurses, and hospital administrative clerks with a pleasant work experience. HealthTec believes that the healthcare system can be productive if its members are fully functional; by fully functional means that all are working to give their patients and clients quality service without time getting wasted.
HealthTec’s medical billing software is HIPAA compliant, which means that the privacy of a person regarding his personal health information held by the company is kept private and disclosed only for the sole purpose of patient care and other eminent purposes. “Through triumphs as well as trials, we have learned that our focus cannot be based on the short-term success of a sale, but must be on the long-term success of satisfied clients,” said Neil Vance, President of HealthTec Software. HealthTec ensures that their clients including the patients are satisfied with the services that the company offers.
With the medical billing software in the healthcare system, the staffs’ paperwork is greatly reduced as it replaces the piled up files to an electronic computer generated one. Access to patient’s records takes less time just by simple clicks of the mouse, thereby decreasing human labor. The less time spent in accessing the files, the more time is spent with the patients, thus the more income the facility can generate.
Revenue is also increased when the staff’s efficacy in carrying out their day-to-day activities is improved while having total control of their own performance just by having the appropriate software. Patient satisfaction is also warranted as the software offers flexible schedules and better and easier access to medical records and other pertinent medical and or personal information. A satisfied client is a sure way to get good referrals which in turn can generate more income.
Management of financial activities by the providers is made easy and insurers are able to receive their claims in no time just by integrating medical billing software in the system and at the same time limiting the chances of committing errors in the submission of claims health insurances just like the Medicare.
Compared to the cost of buying office supplies and the cost of putting-up storage spaces for the growing medical files, the medical billing software is likely to be less expensive. Not to mention the possibility of adding employees because the current number could not cope with the demands of work. HealthTec offers Medical billing software that is reasonably priced and user-friendly.

ONLINE BILLING SERVICE SAVES TIME AND MONEY
ONLINE BILLING SERVICE SAVES TIME AND MONEY
HealthTec, a leader in Medical Practice and Management Software and services, has added an on-line billing module to their distinguished line of products. The physician’s office uploads the data and HealthTec does the rest. But unlike most electronic statement services, HealthTec’s Patient Statement module allows the physician’s office to stay in control of the process by being able to visually review each statement before it is printed. In this way the user can either approve or deny a statement on an individual basis. Conversely, the entire batch can be sent off with the click of a mouse. An added feature of HealthTec’s Patient Statement module allows for an image of each statement to be retained on-line for immediate viewing for 90 days. This on-line billing and management software can be used as an integrated part of the HealthTec family of products as well as with other medical practice management systems.
HealthTec’s On-line billing software will save time and money for physicians by eliminating printing, folding, stuffing, sealing, metering and mailing statements. It is also designed with a number of graphic capabilities and advance features that make processing statements and troubleshooting for errors and omissions much less of a chore. Statements are completely customizable. Each statement contains blocks for payment summary information, processing bar codes to assure 100% delivery accuracy, service messages, prompts to indicate changes in billing information, account summary, statement aging and a billing statement area allowing up to nine different columns. The forms are also pre-perforated for easy separation and come in a variety of colors. The software also allows for the review and printing of 12 months worth of statements.
HealthTec understands the need for health service providers to improve cash flow. Therefore they have designed entire process to be efficient and practical. The service also includes an option for address updating through NCOAlink. Through NCOAlink the USPS National Customer Support Center makes change-of-address information available to mailers in order to help reduce undeliverable mailpieces before they enter the mailstream.
Having the billing statement information available on-line makes sense, especially when viewed in concert with HealthTec full line of products and services. By adding the Patient Statement module to HealthTec’s Fusion - a fully integrated software solution for health service providers providing electronic health records, scheduling and practice management – the savings and streamlining of back-office work is immediate and undeniable.
And when you factor the cost of maintaining supplies against the HealthTec’s service fees, the advantage of on-line billing makes sense even for smaller medical practices. Medical Billing Software

How Electronic Medical Records is a Diminution to the Complexity of Nursing
How Electronic Medical Records is a Diminution to the Complexity of Nursing
Nurses are said to be the eye of the doctor’s and the voice of the patients. They are the doctor’s eyes because they come in close contact with the patients most of the time. They are able to assess the patients’ condition and their response to the treatment either they’re improving or not in a daily basis. The nurses’ relentless interaction with their patients enables them to hear their patients’ complaints of pain, difficulty in sleeping or any other discomforts. Nursing is a complex profession because it does not only deal with the patients but with the doctors and patient’s relatives as well. Other than the direct bedside nursing care, a nurse’s job also describes their responsibility in the documentation of medications, nurse’s notes and in implementing the doctor’s orders. But how can a nurse be able to focus on taking care of her patient when her 8 or 12 hours of shift must be divided in charting and transcribing the ordered medication to the therapeutic sheets, and in carrying out the doctor’s orders? It’s a good thing that the American hospitals nowadays have the audacity to assimilate Electronic Medical Records in the system as this does not only benefit the physicians, but also the nurses who are the primary caregivers of the patients.
The Electronic Medical Records that HealthTec innovated benefits the nurses in so many ways in terms of documentation, time management, patient care, medication, charting and transcribing doctor’s orders.
One can’t deny the fact that there are some physicians who writes illegibly which is a waterloo to most nurses. So much time is wasted in deciphering the handwriting of the doctor or in locating the ordering physician just to confirm the written order. Now, with the aid of the handwriting translation tool that the Electronic Medical Records bring, nurses are able to carryout the doctor’s orders without having to decipher it. This also decreases the possibility of misinterpreting the Resident’s notes, which is most likely the common cause of errors in nursing.
When it comes to giving of medications, the likeliness of committing medication errors is reduced because Electronic medical records works in combination with another important tool called the electronic medical administration records where in the dosage of the drug, the time and date of administering the medication and even drug allergies or even the occurrence of possible drug-to-drug or drug-to-food interactions are prompted.
The nursing dogma clearly states that any care not documented is care not done. That’s the importance of proper documentation. Electronic medical records is able to incorporate this clinical component in the system, as this allows nurses to properly document the care rendered to the patients as well as the complaints made by them. The electronic medical records is so sophisticated and patient care oriented that it has prompts and alerts responding to the patient’s complaints, thus stimulating the nurses to make further assessments and do necessary nursing actions and proper documentation.
HealthTec Fusion offers nurses the state of the art customizable Electronic Medical Records software in a touch screen tablet PC that is equipped with an uncomplicated edge that enables decipherable handwritings and proper documentations. Now, instead of wasting time in doing paper works, nurses can perform their primary role as care givers in promoting patient’s health and alleviating their sickness.

EMR: Improving Patient Care
EMR: Improving Patient Care
Electronic Medical Record (EMR) was innovated by Healthtec Fusion to manage and ease up the hustle and bustle and the encumbrance that the conventional medical records bring. Just think about how computers tend to make our loves a lot easier. Same is true to EMR. It makes the lives of those who are involved in the care of the patient – physicians, nurses, and hospital office clerks a lot easier. This saves them time and prevents them from being interrupted from their work. EMR does not only save time, but it also generates income. Just think about the number of people that the hospital administrative clerk could cater if his or her work is not interrupted by going about the rubles of the old fashioned paper-based medical records. The more people they serve the more income the hospital gets.
One purpose of the EMR is the interoperability or the ability to quickly access and exchange patient information such as laboratory test results and past medical histories such as allergies, diagnoses and medications taken from physician to physician or other members of the healthcare team or from hospital to hospital which is necessary in ameliorating the caregivers’ ability in making unassailable decisions in carrying out a care that is conveniently patient-centered and in a timely manner.
EMR also manages how the doctors’ orders are implemented such as prescriptions for medications, lab tests and other services by entering and storing them in a computerized scheme, thus leaving less room for repetition and improves the speed of how the orders are carried out.
The continuity of communication among healthcare providers is also made possible by the EMR through computerized decision-support. A communication that’s efficiently, safely and easily accessed and shared among the providers allows room for improvement of the continuity of patient care with the use of prompts and reminders, thereby enabling them to formulate diagnoses and implement plan of care and treatments suited for the patient’s case without delays.
Every patient has the right to know every single detail about their health. EMR offers patient support by giving the patient the liberty to access his or her health archives. It also provides the patient with who has a chronic condition with home instructions like self-monitoring of blood pressure and self-testing of blood glucose levels for the purpose of continuity of care until the patient is discharged.
The computerized administrative means that the EMR offers such as scheduling and reporting systems, allows the hospitals and clinics to efficiently provide administrative support and services to the patients in a timely manner as it replaces the out-dated, incomplete, disintegrated, illegible and sometimes hard to find paper-based medical records with an updated, easily accessed source of information that has the potential for automation and modernization.
To sum it up, EMR is geared towards the provision of an improved patient care by means of a computerized legal document (including patient history, billing information, and medical transcription notes, lab results, and medications) that is secured and easily accessed and shared among the authorized healthcare providers in any venues which has the ability to incorporate the erraticism and intricacy of the prescribed medications, the diagnoses, and the plan of care.

Promoting Quality and Efficacy in Work through Medical Billing Software
Before, without the aid of technology medical practitioners and administrative clerks are unable to carry out their day to day work with ease in a fast pace and too much time is wasted on going about the dusty files instead focusing on patient care. Decades ago, the healthcare providers and other hospital staff had to do everything in paper and manually, leading to clerical errors which in turn result to a delay in invoicing, processing of bills and insurances, Medicare and other compensation claims. Nowadays, the growth of modern technologies is widely spreading that it even encompasses the medical field in terms of clerical work and direct patient care. By adapting and incorporating a Medical Billing Software in the workfield, the medical staff can now do away with the hustle and bustle of filing-in piles of medical records. What most administrators of large hospitals and healthcare facilities are concerned of is how to provide an above average quality of service without exhausting labor and at the same time cost effective.
