Guest guest Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 I wasn't going to use the schedule! I need a way to block all the patients in the message box as my patients can be very nosey even if I am quick opening their chart and keeping that screen blank was the way to do it. What do you do? I haven't like AC's appt schedule and was looking at VueMinder. Do you know if it has a seperate way to check insurances using ACPM? Sounds great that it will post itself! What interfaces will need to be purchased for that? Then I assume it tells you what it posted so you can compare and make sure you weren't underpaid? then quickly lets you rebill? I believe this will increase the yearly fee?

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 yes you can check individually but you have to be signed up with Gateway clearinghouse ( I think they may work with other clearinghouses later but Gateway is the one for now)no interfacesyes it tells you the payment, the contract adjustment and the copay - if 0 left over then the balance is zero if not zero you can bill pt or resend electronically to secondary for the programyearly fee no changehere's the demo page http://amazingcharts.com/the-ehr/product-tour/practice-management/To: From: myriaemeny@...Date: Sat, 11 Aug 2012 19:39:04 -0700Subject: Re: AC PM I wasn't going to use the schedule!

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 I can still bill with Office Ally for free but I will have to continue manual input of EOBs and can't check insurances and wait for AC to add OA to the list of partners.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 Thanks for the info Lynn.  Like Myria, I didn't realize that the PM module would mean having to pay for Gateway.  Bummer.Making me lean more toward to Practice Fusion (did a demo with on Thursday evening last week; was fun mainly because I got to hear her voice and see her sometimes ). Hmmm.Sharon  I can still bill with Office Ally for free but I will have to continue manual input of EOBs and can't check insurances and wait for AC to add OA to the list of partners. I was looking forward to not doing all the manual input. I assume it will still generate all the reports like balances due, in appeal, etc. Thanks again.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I also beta test Version 7 (10 year user and have done lots of beta testing) - the Practice Management is good and the bugs are getting worked out. One thing I thought I would clarify is that it costs nothing to use the PM but the monthly Gateway EDI fee includes insurance checking, electronic EOBs, etc. I have checked with Jon Bertman and he reiterated that you don't have to subscribe to Gateway to use the PM- the same way I currently use Medisoft (although pay Gateway fee and they have never get electronic EOB to work). I assume practice fusion or office ally may offer a free electronic PM program and feel if people want to switch that is their prerogative, but I have 10 years invested in AC with notes back to early 2002 and since the other PM I use charged me a fee I am okay with it. P.S. I have been a member (lurking) for years and am not an IMP but like to watch ideas and discussions about all things in private practice (I am still a slave to the infamous hamster wheel).
