Automatic Coding : gCare™ applies complex CMS billing rules transparently to calculate the right diagnostic and procedure codes and dramatically reduce billing and compliance costs while shortening the A/R cycle. This feature is unavailable in most competing Gastroenterology procedure reporters and will not be implemented in non-specialty applications.
Image Manager : gCare™ incorporates a browser-based image manager capable of acquiring static images in real-time directly from any video-endoscope. Images are then stored for printing, labeling or remote retrieval and incorporated selectively into the final procedure report, discharge note, referral letter and other documentation.
Laboratory Manager : gCare™ generates automated pathology requisitions, specimen labels and sample logs with minimal effort while keeping track of laboratory orders and pending results to prevent errors or omissions. Results can be retrieved at the medical office or anywhere with secure Internet access. Currently, there are interfaces with many national laboratories, including Pathology Partners, CBLPath, Ameripath, Dianon/LabCorp, Propath and others.
Nursing Notes : In order to create a paperless environment gCare™ allows Nurses and physicians to document all components of the traditional nursing note including: patient history, physical exam, preparation, procedure indications, pre, intra and post-procedure assessment and discharge criteria; to meet or exceed JCAHO and AAAHC guidelines. The nursing module also integrates with many popular vital sign monitors to accelerate documentation.
Paperless Faxing : Inbound faxes are received in an electronic form decreasing costs and increasing profits. Nurses and assistants can file faxes electronically into patient's record or send for review to anyone in the organization. Faxes can be sent directly from the system without having to send a hard copy.
Intelligent Scanning : Scanning patient records, while decreasing time and cost, allows users to acquire patient medical history in an easy manner. Medical staff is able to input and route relevant information within seconds.
Order and Task Management : Physicians and nurses can track orders, results, messages and tasks performed on the patient securely and easily. It also allows communication between the staff and the patients to be enhanced, while decreasing liabilities and costs. In addition, this feature enhances the office manager's control over staff productivity.
Summary Reports : From billing to risk control, gCare™ provides many pre-configured reports to help you focus on the health of your practice and your patients, not administrative procedures.
