Revenue Cycle Management

The Check In

Front office staff responsible for Check In plays a vital role in collecting patient balances and co-pays and reviewing pre-charge entry data for accuracy. HealthFusion's Practice Management System prompts the user to perform these tasks automatically.

Key Benefits:

• Intuitive interfaces prompt the user to complete data that was not available during the Pre-Visit process, facilitating a more accurate charge entry process.
• Eligibility information gathered during the pre-visit process is just a click away.
• Deductible amounts and visit limits can be reviewed and discussed with the patient directly.
• Co-pay information is presented side-by-side with the corresponding co-pay collection input fields, prompting the user to collect and record the co-pay.
• Outstanding balance information acts as a trigger to the user to collect patient balances prior to the provider portion of the visit.

Superbills can be customized with the practice's favorite ICD (International Classification of Diseases) and CPT (Current Procedure Terminology) codes in the order that the practice determines itself. For practices with multiple locations, superbills can be printed based on location, on the relevant practice resources, and/or the visit date. Superbills can be printed all at once or individually for practices that have walk-in clients or require sequential numbering of billing slips based on the order of appointments.

The Check Out

Key Benefits:

• At the time the patient is checking out, the HealthFusion^® system can display any already-scheduled appointments and modify the schedule based on recommendations related to the current encounter.
• For patients with deductible and co-insurance plans, the system uses HealthFusion's Fee Schedule to calculate the expected patient responsibility during the check out process.
• Payment can be made at the time of service, thereby accelerating revenue flow and reducing the overhead associated with balance billing and patient statements.

Patient Check In and Check Out workflow is easy with HealthFusion's Practice Management System. On-screen links to patient eligibility and registration prompt your staff to collect accurate co-pay amounts for each and every visit, and customized superbills and integration with Fee Schedule features assist the user in understanding co-insurance and deductible responsibility. HealthFusion facilitates collection at the key time of service, accelerating the revenue cycle and reducing overhead.
