Practice management software for anesthesiologists requires different features and functionality than many other specialists.
Most specialty clinics work directly with patients and need practice management software that helps facilitate those patient interactions. But anesthesiologists need practice management software that improves provider-to-provider relations, and helps you coordinate with administrators, schedulers, and staff in hospitals or ambulatory surgical centers.
As an anesthesiologist, the most important thing you do is provide exceptional, safe anesthesiology care to patients. It’s one of the most essential parts of a surgical procedure, and requires precision and accuracy to ensure that everything goes as planned. With our practice management software tools, you get all the information you need prior to a patient encounter to improve the chance of a good outcome.
Our software was designed for interoperability. You won’t have to worry about siloed systems that don’t share information. You also don’t have to dedicate extra staff time to download information from other providers’ offices or from hospital or ASC facilities, then upload it into your system. This creates plenty of opportunities for human error in the upload, download, and manual data entry processes.
AdvancedMD has existing application programming interfaces that help you share data on upcoming procedures, best practices, and important patient notes to ensure the highest level of safety and efficacy in every anesthesia administration.
Patients are increasingly shouldering more of the costs of care, and providers who are involved in surgical procedures (including anesthesiologists) must have a simple way to bill and collect for services. New regulatory requirements make it more important than ever to have accurate billing information and avoid surprises.
AdvancedMD offers a simple solution for self-pay patients, and outstanding balances after insurance payments clear. With our online billing tools you can send patients their statements and collect online. We have a payment portal that processes credit, debit, FSA, and HSA cards and automatically applies that to outstanding patient balances. The statements patients get include clear information about the specific charges, any insurance payments that reduced the balance, and the remaining amount due.
Send statements out via email and mail, and follow up with people via text to remind them when they have a payment due. We can also offer tools to set up payment plans for charges that a patient can’t pay in full right now. Offering more options for payment ensures that you collect all that you are owed after rendering anesthesia services.
Scheduling for anesthesia providers requires coordination among multiple facilities, procedure types, and providers. Our system allows you to set up specific parameters for common procedures. Staff can block off the schedule during surgical procedures, and insert additional time for things like travel or preparation. Create contingencies for operating procedures that go over the allotted time to avoid confusion and frustration with your surgical partners.
Staff can see your schedule, as well as the schedule for all the hospitals and ASCs where you offer anesthesia services, to avoid overlaps or errors that create headaches for anesthesiologists, CRNAs, surgeons, or patients. Our software also supports multi-provider anesthesia practices to make scheduling a breeze, even when you have several providers who are working in the same clinic.
Get all the information you need to stay updated on your practice health with our comprehensive reporting features. Choose from our pre-designed reporting templates to get information on billed charges, collection rates, claims denials, surgical volumes, and more. Quickly see an overview of your practice and financial health from reporting dashboards, then drill down into specific areas to look at detailed data on workflows and efficiencies within your anesthesia practice.
