One of the most important initial investments for your practice is chiropractic billing software. You may think that, as you own a small practice, you can manage your finances on your own. And you may believe that you can invest your money elsewhere, such as in advertising or chiropractic equipment. In reality, what you need is a tool that helps you sign up more patients and speed up your collections from insurance companies, payment processors, and healthcare providers. This is what chiropractic billing software does for you – among others.
Discover the Benefits of Chiropractic Billing Software Tailored for Your Needs
The EHR chiropractic software you enjoy as part of your Premium membership in Medximity network was created together with chiropractors. We know that you are not a computer whiz or an accountant. You do not have time to learn complex menus, functions, and so on.
What you need is a simple interface where you can see exactly what bills you have to issue, to whom, and when you should expect to get paid. And this is what you get, together with other important benefits, both for your practice and for your patients.
Here are some of the most important reasons why you need to use chiropractic billing software from day 1 of opening your practice:
1. Paperless Patient Registration and Check-In
Patients expect modern and convenient methods to fill in their registration form and check in when they come for appointments. When they see a few sheets of paper and a pen, they are already half discouraged. Faced with a long and complex form, they will simply abandon it and walk out of your practice,
The chiropractic billing software offers them a simple online form that they can fill in and update on their mobile phone and tablet. The form only contains the information strictly required by regulations and is designed to be easy to fill in, even by the elderly.
2. Check Insurance Eligibility Quickly
Many people rely on their health insurance to cover at least a part of the payment for chiropractic treatment. However, not all insurance providers accept to cover treatments from your practice.
Using the chiropractic billing software, you will be able to check in a few clicks if the patient’s insurer will accept your bills and inform them. Also, you can schedule alerts for the patients when their insurance amount for chiropractic treatments is running out and they will have to pay out of pocket for the next appointment.
3. Make Sure You Don’t Miss Claim Filing Deadlines
One of the most frequent reasons why your claims are not paid by insurance companies is missing the deadline for filing them. As a busy chiropractor, you cannot keep tabs on absolutely everything.
However, if you miss a deadline, you may have to wait until the next month to get paid. This can be a major problem for new practices, which need a steady cash flow. The chiropractic billing software allows you to set alerts for various items, including the deadline for preparing and sending your claim
4. Speed Up Payments from Healthcare Providers
Healthcare providers rely on codes for various medical procedures and for different conditions. This allows them to automate payments to various clinics and professionals, including chiropractic practices.
The chiropractic billing software contains a complete library of the codes you will need for billing. When you type in the name of a procedure, the respective code is automatically filled in the respective field. Thus, you can be certain that you make no errors in billing and that you get paid on time for your services.
5. Offer Patients a Helpful Portal
The patient portal of the chiropractic billing software is designed to help patients:
• Make, change, and cancel appointments
• Get in touch with you via chat
• Fill in their self-assessment report, noting what kind of improvements they observed
• Access useful information (articles, latest news) that you share on the portal.
The chiropractic billing software incorporated into the Digital Patient Chart portal is your key to the simple, effective, and error-free management of the finances of your practice. Get in touch with our team to find out more!
