With this system the clinics are able to hire 3 people instead of 6 or 7 that would be needed to process each individual portion of the information received.
General features of the system include On-Screen Collection Work Sheet that allows the collection of information into a paperless work file. This file provides access to patient, ledger, billing, and insurance information. The system also includes a Custom Report Generator that can produce detailed financial management reports. These reports condense all financial information from the entire Raintree database and can be used in the tracking of all financial information to analyze revenue from each office location, doctors, and insurance companies. An Integrated Word Processing program allows employees to format and merge such things as patient's name, address, account balance, unpaid charges, and insurance information so that patient and insurance letters can be printed on demand. Also included are Electronic Claims submission which helps manage patient claims to there insurance companies. It allows the clinics to directly submit insurance claims to Medicare, MediCal, and any commercial carriers. The program also contains Line Item Accounting, which tracks payments and production by doctors. All of these features and more are combined to make an information system that is a comprehensive all-in-one software package offering different modules that is designed either for the individual, administrator or the clinic in whole.
ANALYSIS OF INPUT.
Information (Data) is received from a couple of different sources. One is from the patient when they enter any of the 3 clinics. If it is a returning patient, they will be asked to sign their name and phone number at the front desk. Once this has been completed the front office medical assistant will pull the patients paper chart and will verify if the information is still correct.
