The right EHR and EMR software can transform your ability to provide exceptional patient care and save time for providers and staff. We offer the most comprehensive EHR platform for optometry clinics with a single provider or a smaller group practice.
Our EHR is flexible to give you all the tools you need to keep your patients’ vision healthy, without all the extras (or the high price) of EHRs that are built for large hospital systems or physician groups with dozens or hundreds of providers.
The introduction of electronic health records (EHRs) meant that optometrists and their clinical staff had to document a lot more information about each encounter. The information can improve care, but it also adds a lot of work on the back end to make sure the EHR includes all the necessary information for reimbursement.
AdvancedMD EHR/EMR software helps optometry providers eliminate wasted “computer time” by streamlining all the tasks in a patient encounter. The software includes templates specific to commonly treated optometry conditions. Providers can use the templates to ensure they get all the information necessary to bill payers, and to improve care over time. We have several template options available to choose from, or your optometry clinic can create your own, with customizable boxes, auto-fill options with shortcut keys, and drop-downs where you can add any relevant information your providers or payers want to capture.
Optometrists can create care plans to help patients overcome vision challenges, or to prevent or slow vision decline over time. But each patient is unique, so their care plans will vary based on unique circumstances, past medical history, family history, and more. AdvancedMD optometry EHR/EMR software analyzes all the information in a patient’s record and information from provider notes and encounters and can recommend care plans using algorithms and artificial intelligence tools. Providers have the ultimate say to accept or decline the recommendations. If they accept, the software can automatically create the next steps to ensure the patient can follow through with their plan.
When patients come in for care, optometrists need access to all the information from their medical history and current treatment plans. AdvancedMD EHR/EMR software for optometry clinics makes it easy to store, search, and retrieve all the essential information with just a few clicks. View imaging and lab results, pull up educational materials and diagrams, and share that information with the patient as needed.
Optometrists can upload documentation from any device and can draw on diagrams or add notes from a smartphone, tablet, or computer. You can also link documentation from external sources to the patient’s record, like referral letters, educational documents, and post-op summaries so your providers can easily access that without navigating to another screen or logging into another software system.
Within the AdvancedMD EHR you will find our proprietary HealthWatcher tool. It sends out alerts to providers whenever a patient is due for a preventive screening or could benefit from other treatment or care. The alerts are noticeable, but not intrusive, so providers can view and accept or dismiss them based on the patient’s current care needs.
EHRs are a valuable tool to improve care quality and care delivery for all specialties, including optometry. With AdvancedMD you get all the tools you need to stay on top of providing high-quality care while adding convenience for your providers and staff.
AdvancedMD is a fully integrated, modular solution that can be designed to work for any optometry practice. Our specialty is in independent clinics and small or medium-size optometry group practices. The software includes a centralized database where all the essential patient information is stored. You add on whatever modules make sense for your practice, including an EHR, practice management, and medical coding and billing systems.
With this modular design, your providers always have access to the most pertinent information within the EHR to provide the best care. They never have to manually enter information or upload and download information to transfer it between systems. If you need to share patient records with other providers to collaborate on their care, you can transfer that data electronically. This speedy data sharing eliminates the risks of data entry errors for safer and faster patient care.
Quality standards are always changing, and AdvancedMD can help you stay on top of whatever CMS and your commercial payers require. Our reporting solutions make it easy to pull all the pertinent data out of your EHR so you can instantly submit quality reports to comply with MIPS and MACRA, or whatever programs come along in the future.
If you can’t find a report that fits your needs in the database of more than 600 predesigned reporting tools, our team will help you create exactly what you require.
