The Advantages of EMR in Your SLP Clinic

Whether they’re scheduling, or submitting claims to their insurers, SLPs who’re using integrated EMR software like Practice Perfect are reaping the benefits of the digital age. In this article, we will discuss some of the many advantages of EMR in your SLP clinic.

 

Scheduler provides information to admin and providers

 

In Practice Perfect, the scheduler does much more than simply list appointments. Our scheduler also provides staff members with important information about the nature of the appointment. For example, your front desk staff will be able to look at the appointment and know whether or not there’s any money to collect from the patient upfront. Likewise, your treatment staff will be able to look at the appointments and see whether or not the clinical documentation has been completed.

 

In addition, Practice Perfect has been expanding on the capabilities of our scheduler. Patients now have the ability to self-book their appointments from home! This is especially helpful for the parents of SLP patients that have jam-packed schedules and not a lot time on their hands.

 

Please contact our support department if you’re interested in setting up the patient self-booking function of Practice Perfect. 

 

Integrated claims submissions

 

Integrated claims submissions are one of the best-loved features of Practice Perfect. Many of our clients have migrated from EMR software systems that did just that: EMR. If they were lucky, they might be able to schedule their appointments in it, too. This is not the case with Practice Perfect.

 

Many SLP patients receive insurance coverage from regional healthcare providers, school districts, and other insurance carriers. And the fact is, without their insurance coverage, they might not have the money to pay for their treatment out of pocket.

 

Practice Perfect makes it possible to submit claims from directly within the software, so that receiving reimbursement for services rendered is as easy as possible.

 

Reporting on the success of your SLP clinic

 

Albert Einstein once said that “insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” If your clinic is just going through the motions, and isn’t paying heed to the results of your efforts, it’s unlikely that you’re going to affect the results of your outcome.
