CureMD’s Home care System is integrated with an EMR/PM solution, allowing unprecedented flexibility and transaction processing that addresses the day to day challenges of the house call niche. The solution provides on the go physicians with innovative tools, allowing them to instantly capture, record and process encounter information including procedures that are normally done in a medical office. These procedures include Physical examination, diagnosis, e-prescription as well as monitoring and managing long term care treatments. The system also includes “G0 coding” for the nurse practitioners to assist patients with initial and follow-up visit calls.

Built-in transcription-to-EMR conversation service referred as DRT (Discrete Reportable Transcription) is an efficient, accurate and cost effective next morning medical transcription service integrated directly into the CureMD EMR/PM solution. Using DRT, providers simply call the toll-free number and record their dictations that are converted into the prescribed EMR templates for next morning review and approvals.

Physicians preferring onsite notes preparation are provided with highly customized note templates presenting single view for recording entire patient information such as complaints, allergies, immunization etc. Moreover, built-in scanning and Document Imaging features allow instant incorporation of the paper documents for hassle free access, while e-prescription (eRX) module streamlines workflows, maximize user adoption and minimize turnaround time in the ordering process.

The system is embedded with a unique billing service supporting both “Hospice billing” and “G0billng”, including a brand new module called “Provider Approval”. The billing service is designed especially for on the go providers automating the entire billing cycle of the practice, providing physicians with an efficient and simplified financial management system. Every patient call is associated with a G0 code to generate and posts claims automatically, which are then processed by the CureMD revenue cycle team to help accelerate the billing process, while reducing costs associated with manual coding and A/R management. The solution also offers an integrated payroll system for a complete account management including salary, toll and mileage calculations.

The first batch of CureMD house call physician practices has reported 100% physician adaptability, 60% reduction in documentation time as well as prominent increase in patient and staff satisfaction due to effective synchronization of all stake holders.
