MedData,
Inc., a leading provider of medical revenue cycle management and patient
satisfaction services, announced today the launch of a new technology
that streamlines the data capture and billing process for Wound Care
Physicians.
MedData's Wound Care Center Application provides physician entry of
Superbill information for Nursing Home patients receiving Wound Care.
Physicians can utilize the secure web application via tablet or laptop
with a standard Internet connection. Images of face sheets can be
created with handheld/portable scanners or phone cameras, which the
physician then attaches to encounter records. Physicians also enter the
CPT codes and diagnosis codes for each encounter, and then upload the
records to MedData for billing.
All information gathered from this portal is passed to MedData through
secure connections, and is then loaded into MedData processing
applications that allow MedData to bill and manage the Accounts
Receivable. Physicians can easily view all active cases, close cases,
and use the "Bill Next" buttons to work their full list of patient
visits for the day. A screen counter shows all cases in the queue, and
will decrement as cases are worked for real-time tracking.
"Wound Care physicians often travel to multiple nursing homes and
benefit from having a rapid way to enter the information necessary for
billing while they are onsite," explained Sue Chilson, MedData's chief
information officer. "As a revenue cycle management leader in
compliance, MedData constantly strives to remain at the forefront of our
clients' technological needs. This secure mobile application aligns our
innovation with our clients' critical path processes."
Breakthrough research offers hope for improved treatment of chronic wounds
