Office Online's Medical Billing, or Accounts receivable
function may be truly unique in the industry for
it's simplicity, flexibility, and lack of repetitive
data entry.
General Design
Medical Office Online's Single Source Database
(SSDB) design offers the next level in system
integration. The Medical Office Online Visit form
serves as both the Electronic Medical Record(EMR)
and the invoice. Take note that our EMR and AR
are not two systems that have been integrated,
they are fully combined. If the provider enters
the data correctly in the examining room there
is no further work to be done before the claim
can be filed.
Regular Workflow
The workflow of filing standard claims is as follows:
| |
Day Sheet
or Super Bill |
| |
|
After completing
all of the visits, procedures or operations
for the day, the Day Sheet can be printed.
When at full utilization this document serves
simply as a way to ensure that all codes
and insurance information has been entered
correctly. If your office is using an external
billing company, the day sheet should be
all that they need to process your claims.
A better system of course is to give them
restricted access to your account, allowing
them to login and process your claims with
no data entry on their end. |
| |
Filing
/ HCFA Generation |
| |
|
After checking over the
day sheet for errors or inaccuracies claims
can be batch generated as a data file for
electronic filing or can be printed to your
laser printer for filing by mail.
Medical Office Online can file electronic
claims in "Print Image" format,
ANSII 837 Professional and ANSII 837 Institutional
formats. Claims can also be printed to any
Laser Printer and most inkjet printers. |
| |
Remittances |
| |
|
Once checks and EOBs have
come back from the insurance company , remittances
are entered into the system. They can be entered
by hand or through our automated Electronic
Remittance Advice (ERA) feature. |
| |
Payments |
| |
|
Remittances are allocated
to multiple visits by creating payments. When
a payment from a remittance is made against
a visit the payment amount is deducted from
the remittance. |
| |
Filing
to Secondaries |
| |
|
After creating the payment
from the primary insurance company, the claim
is ready to be filed to the secondary and
the above steps are repeated. |
| |
Patient
Billing |
| |
|
Once all insurance payments
have come in, you can batch print patient
bills directly out of the Medical Office Online
system. Each bill lists each charge with the
payments already made against that charge
and is formatted so that the patient's address
will accurately hit the window of a standard
sized view window envelope. |
HMOs
Medical Office Online allows you to create HMO
invoices and add each covered visit as a line
item to that invoice. You can then allocate the
remittance received from the HMO to that invoice
and record the financial loss or gain resulting
from your HMO membership.
Miscellaneous Invoices
Miscellaneous Invoices allow you to bill
for any products other than those immediately
related to patient care. This is basically a standard
accounts receivable program that is integrated
with the rest of the system. Some example uses
of miscellaneous invoices include
- Medical record copying
- Vitamin sales
- Crutches, wheelchairs, etc.
- Any other item that your practice sells
Now that you know what the Medical Office Online
AR can do, why not take a Test
Drive and try it out.
