Take the Worry out of Compliance
Staying compliant with constantly changing requirements makes running a practice more and more difficult. Surviving an audit without incurring costly, and sometimes devastating fines is yet another challenge. With Clinicient, you will spend less time trying to navigating through the complexities and demands of compliance – giving you and your staff more time to care for patients and a noticeable reduction in your fear and anxiety of an audit.
Just a few of the ways we help with compliance include:
Medicare Requirements
It’s very risky not following Medicare’s rules – so much so that an audit can put you out of business. Many practices don’t realize how critical it is that their clinical documentation and combined billing adhere to very specific requirements. We do, and our system is loaded with what we like to call “Do Not Go to Jail Warnings” that keep you on top of Medicare Caps, CCI edits, CMS rounding rules, Plans of Care, physician certifications, progress reports, goal tracking, PQRS eligibility, co-signing, medical necessity and over and under billing. More than once Medicare surveyors have been known to compliment our customers on their documentation when they’ve been audited. Watch our short video on defensible documentation in physical therapy.
Data Security
We’ve all heard the stories of computers containing patient data and information getting stolen. Clinicient is web-based and patient information is never stored on your computer, so you don’t need to worry about this. All your patient information is kept safe and secure in our data centers with the highest level of security available. The system is automatically backed up every few minutes, so you also can rest assured that if the event of a natural disaster, your patient’s records are safe and sound, and easily accessible.
Secure Communication
Protected Health Information (PHI) is a top compliance concern, requiring certified or encrypted delivery when communicating anything patient related across various channels. With Clinicient, all transmitted information that includes (PHI) is encrypted for delivery. Clinical reports can be faxed directly from the system FREE OF CHARGE. No need to print anything to paper and worry about securely filing or shredding paper documents or files.
