Original Press Release:
MedAptus Launches Version 7.0 of Electronic Charge Capture
BOSTON, July 25 // -- Point-of-care solutions provider MedAptus(R) today announced the release of version 7.0 of its practice-proven Electronic Charge Capture technology. Adopted by prestigious healthcare institutions and progressive physicians nationwide, the solution drives accurate and compliant professional charge capture and submission, radically improving revenue and streamlining medical billing workflow.
Version 7.0 introduces numerous new functions and enhanced features to the growing MedAptus customer base. A major component of this latest version is Physician Workstation, a Web-based charge capture tool designed to closely mirror the company's popular handheld-based software in terms of functionality and overall user experience. Physician Workstation is also completely interchangeable with MedAptus' handheld and Tablet PC versions of its Charge Capture, giving physicians hardware-flexibility based on care setting.
The application additionally allows for seamless integration with the vast majority of Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems. Such integration, achieved via a singe sign-on and sharing of captured patient charge data, extends an organization's information technology investments and delivers revenue that would otherwise be lost given the tendency of EMRs to singularly focus on clinical workflow.
MedAptus' version 7.0 also includes an enhanced Rounding List feature designed to greatly expedite charge capture for physicians treating inpatients, hospitalists and consulting providers in particular. The Rounding List, noted by select MedAptus customers and prospects as incredibly robust yet easy-to-use, simplifies patient look-up and assignment via rapid creation and management of concurrent patient lists accessible to physicians as well as support staff for editing.
Another enhancement to the handheld-based version of the MedAptus software is an expanded "Find Patient" feature that permits physician-users to search his or her organization's entire MedAptus database, as opposed to solely the smaller database residing on the handheld device. This comprehensive search ability, much like the Rounding List, is especially useful in inpatient settings where on-the-go consults are common. Having access to the entire MedAptus database, which stores patient and charge data from the date of customer go-live, means that physicians can retrieve information quickly, greatly improving productivity.
"Looking back at the evolution of our Charge Capture over the past seven years, I can say I am truly amazed by how far the product has come. While I'm certain our entire customer base will enjoy the enhancements included in version 7.0, I believe that hospitalists and groups seeking an alternative to weak EMR-based charge capture will find this latest offering particularly attractive," stated Dennis Mitchell, president and CEO of MedAptus. "And while version 7.0 is clearly the most powerful we -- and the market -- have offered, we haven't lost sight of our core beliefs that point-of-care technologies must be easy-to-use and deliver substantive financial returns."
