Understanding the Difference between Custom EHR and EMR Software Solutions

In the ever-evolving healthcare landscape, electronic health records (EHR) and electronic medical records (EMR) have revolutionized the way medical data is collected, stored, and managed. While both EHR and EMR systems share the common goal of digitizing patient information, there are distinct differences between them, particularly when it comes to customization options. In this blog post, we will explore the dissimilarities between custom EHR and EMR software solutions, highlighting their unique features, benefits, and considerations.

I. Electronic Health Records (EHR): EHR software is a comprehensive electronic system designed to collect, store, and exchange patient health information across various healthcare providers and settings. Here are the key aspects of custom EHR solutions:

Interoperability: EHRs are built to enable seamless data sharing between different healthcare entities, including hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and laboratories. They prioritize interoperability standards to ensure data continuity and collaboration.

Comprehensive Patient Data: EHRs provide a holistic view of a patient's medical history, including diagnoses, medications, allergies, lab results, immunization records, and more. This integrated approach allows healthcare professionals to access and analyze a patient's complete health record.

Customizability: Custom EHR solutions offer flexibility and tailoring options to match the specific needs of healthcare organizations. They can be adapted to suit various specialties, workflows, and regulatory requirements, ensuring optimal usability and efficiency.

Care Coordination: EHRs facilitate coordinated care by enabling healthcare providers to access and update patient records in real-time. This enhances communication and collaboration among different healthcare teams involved in a patient's care journey.

II. Electronic Medical Records (EMR): EMR software focuses primarily on individual patient records within a single healthcare organization. While EMR systems share some similarities with EHRs, they differ in their scope and customization capabilities:

Internal Record Keeping: EMR solutions are designed to digitize and streamline the internal processes of a specific healthcare facility. They provide tools for capturing patient information, medical history, diagnoses, prescriptions, and treatment plans within the confines of that organization.

Limited Data Sharing: Unlike EHRs, EMR systems typically lack robust interoperability features. They are primarily optimized for use within a single healthcare provider and may not facilitate easy data exchange with external entities.

Workflow Optimization: Custom EMR software focuses on improving the efficiency and accuracy of internal workflows. It allows healthcare professionals to automate routine tasks, generate reports, schedule appointments, and manage billing processes, thus enhancing overall operational efficiency.

Specialty-Specific Solutions: EMR software can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of different medical specialties. For example, EMR systems for cardiology, paediatrics, or oncology may include specialized templates and features to support those areas.

While both EHR and EMR systems have their distinct advantages, understanding their differences is crucial when considering software solutions for healthcare organizations. Custom EHR solutions excel in interconnectivity, comprehensive patient information, and adaptability to diverse workflows. On the other hand, custom EMR software offers focused internal record management, workflow optimization, and specialty-specific customization. By evaluating the unique needs and goals of your healthcare facility, you can choose the right solution that best aligns with your requirements and delivers enhanced patient care and operational efficiency.

Seeking a reliable and experienced software development company specializing in custom Electronic Health Record (EHR) and Electronic Medical Record (EMR) software solutions? Look no further!

Oncology Medical Billing Services

Medisys Data Solutions Inc (Medisys), a leading Oncology medical billing company will help you address all your Oncology coding and billing challenges effectively; right from filing clean claims to collecting maximum revenue.

Oncology is one of the most rapidly developing fields of medicine. Moreover, Oncology is a high-tech field and treatments involve new equipment, extensive surgeries, radiation therapies & chemotherapy. Hence, Oncology practices face various challenges such as frequent coding changes, dynamic compliance rules and payer ignorance about the latest technology.

Coding & billing for Oncology practice is complex. Billing errors such as the misuse of modifiers to identify services, treatment or improper documentation frequently lead to denial of claims.

Explore medical billing services from the Medisys Data team. Error free billing processes & transparent reporting for higher claims and faster reimbursements & more revenue. Our billing experts manage your entire revenue cycle so you can collect more revenue without doing any of the heavy lifting.

Our Revenue Cycle Services Can Reduce Costs And Improve MarginsPatient Insurance/Eligibility Verification

It’s very important to verify every patient’s eligibility and benefits to make sure that physicians receive payment for all services rendered. Medisys Data Solutions offers a comprehensive patient eligibility verification package to help physicians confirm all details about patient insurance coverage in advance (well before the patient walks in to see the physician). Our team’s focus is on avoiding denials and delays in payment. This way we can boost revenue and also improve patient satisfaction.

We are equipped with insurance eligibility verification experts who will call insurance companies and confirm the coverage, benefit options, demographic data, and prior authorization requirements for each patient for their date of service

Payment Posting & Secondary Billing

We pay highest attention to payment posting as this is one of the key processes in medical billing. We post electronic payments in the billing software of the client and handle the exceptions manually to make sure each payment gets posted fully. The ERAs (electronic remittance advice) are stored either in the billing software or DMS (document management system) for future reference.

All payers share an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) or Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA) for the payment of claim. Our billing experts post received payments into the respective patient accounts in the billing software against the particular claim to balance each patient account. Rules for processing payments differ from client to client which also indicate the cut-off level to take adjustments, write-offs, refunds etc.

Once insurance payments are posted, our billers check, if there are any secondary claims that can be created and submitted, if required. Once all insurance payments have been received and account adjustments made, the remaining balance on the account is identified as patient responsibility (Co-pay, Deductible etc.) invoiced to patient accordingly.

Pre-Authorizations/Prior Authorizations

The key to a tangible preauthorization is to provide the correct CPT code. To conclude the correct code, the biller checks with the physician to find out what the physician anticipates doing. Make sure you get all possible scenarios; otherwise, you would run in the risk of a procedure that was performed which is not covered.

Each insurance plan has their set of covered services that require pre-authorization. The burden of gaining pre-authorizations is on the provider because patients don’t have knowledge about CPT codes and may not know when pre-authorization is required. Taking an extra precaution to double check whether pre-authorization is required may take some extra time, but this process will save significant time later trying to chase down claims and payments.

Denial Management And Resolution

Denied claims and its management is an essential element to resolve for a healthy cash flow. We are equipped with the best medical coding and billing professionals, hand-picked for their expertise in the healthcare domain. These professionals are perpetually enrolled in continual staff education initiatives, so as to possess the most up-to-date knowledge on the billing and coding guidelines.

Leverage our systematic best practices and proven methodology to bring excellence to your revenue cycle management, including the denial management process.

Improve the health of your practice and prevent future denials with our suggestions for process improvements.

Patient Demographic Entry

Every single piece of patient information is vital in medical billing and coding, as this information directly impacts the insurance claims payment. You can batch the patients’ demographic data and share it with us to carry out patient demographic entry. Our experts carefully enter patient demographic data, as even the smallest of errors can lead to denials by insurance companies.

If you are finding it difficult to keep up with the patient demographic data entry with your in-house team, then outsourcing it, can be a great way to ensure successful claims processing.

A/R Follow-Up

You should have effective insurance model in recovering due payments from insurance carriers within a specific time frame. Consistent AR follow up helps the physicians to run practice smoothly and successfully. We ensure each client that their amount is gets refunded as soon as possible from insurance companies

At Medisys Data Solutions, we well understand all claim denial facts and we focus to reduce the average AR follow up services process time by regularly following up the pending claims.

We utilize experienced, well-trained individuals in the medical billing process. Most of our employees have multiple years of experience in medical billing collections and coding.

Coding & Billing

Medical coding and billing is the strength of the healthcare revenue cycle; ensuring payers and patients reimburse providers for services delivered.

Timely submission of medical claims and getting reimbursements without delay is vital for successfully running the practice. Outsourcing medical billing and coding services can help you to avail error free and faster recovery at less cost. We understand the criticality of timely medical billing and coding and get you will be free from the follow-up and administrative work associated with billing and coding. This will help you focus on your core competencies such as providing quality healthcare services to patients.

Patient Statement Preparation

Patient statements help you reduce costs and save time by billing your patients quickly and efficiently. A delayed revenue cycle can negatively impact patient relationships and internal efficiency. Make sure your clients have everything they need to pay their bills on time

Once the biller has received the report from the payer, it’s time to make the statement for the patient. Once the payer has agreed to pay the provider for a portion of the services on the claim, the remaining amount is passed to the patient.

The final phase of the billing process is ensuring those bills get well paid and within a specific time. Billers are in charge of mailing out timely, accurate medical bills, and then following up with patients whose bills are pending. Once the bill is paid by the patient then the information is stored in the billing software.

Scope of Medical Services outsourcing

The US and UK healthcare industry outsources medical billing, insurance claim processes, software development and data analysis to India and other developing countries.

An outsourcer falls into four main categories – healthcare provider which includes hospitals and physicians, payer (health insurance companies), pharmaceutical companies and healthcare IT companies. Outsourcing of medical services allows patients to get the best medical attention from specialist medical practitioners. Nowadays even radiology and clinical services are being outsourced. Clinical services outsourcing includes outsourcing of oncology, orthopaedic services, molecular imaging and disease management. Apart from cost savings, outsourcing of clinical services and radiology allows for diagnosis in time and quick treatment of patients. India is fast becoming the ‘go-to’ country to outsource medical services with its pool of qualified medical professionals and access to latest medical technology, apart from the time zone difference and quality advantages. Even blood and urine samples are now sent to India for pathology tests to minimize costs for the outsourcer.

The healthcare industry in the West is based on healthcare insurance and claims, for which detailed medical records are required. Patient information and records need to be maintained in detail. That is one of the primary reasons why hospitals, clinics and offices of medical practitioners based in the West outsource medical transcription to India. Get More Info Clinical Associates Medical Services

Medical transcription is virtually a recession proof industry in India, with the Government offering support to healthcare BPOs specialising in medical services outsourcing including transcription. Outsourcing transcription to India is preferred by European, UK and US based medical organizations and practitioners. India has a high percentage of English speaking young work-force. This is one of the main reasons they can provide quality, error free records and reports with better turnaround times.

Medical transcription services is a popular profession in India for those who have given up their 9-5 routines and want a job with flexibility, no commute and attractive pay. The job however is challenging because some doctors whose records need to be transcribed can have accents that are difficult to understand. Regardless of this, the popularity of medical transcription services is growing its benefits are becoming more and more clear to people.

Liberalized internet, low bandwidth costs, introduction of 3G internet speeds makes working from home easy. All a transcriptionist now requires is a decent home computer with basic text keying software, a headset, foot pedal (to control the voice player) and some reference software for understanding medical terms and drugs. Medical transcription services as a profession has also given rise to training centres where a transcriptionist can get himself certified by taking a course, ensuring the person can handle medical transcription exceptionally well. Therefore medical transcription is not only big business in the organized healthcare BPO sector, but also for several freelancingFree Articles, work from home professionals who are steadily adopting transcription as a profession.

So You Want to Start a Biotech: A Bioinformatics Approach That Works

In the middle of a raging pandemic, two small biotechs (BioNTech and Moderna) have stepped up to save the world.

Biotechs are awesome.

If you want to start a biotech, you’re going to need:

A great idea

A boatload of funding

A can-do attitude

Some sort of wet lab setup

Some sort of bioinformatics setup

I am here to help with that last one with some guiding principles and a tech stack that I have used at a couple of startups that basically worked.

I did not come up with the tech stack.

A version of it was originally set up by Andrew Clark who I worked with at Gritstone Oncology and learned a lot from.  It is described from the dev ops perspective with more technical details here:

https://aws.amazon.com/partners/success/gritstone-oncology/

Here is the bioinformatics/biologist version:

1)    Startups need to move quickly.

An investor funds a biotech with a lump of money and the expectation that the company will get from point A to point B. If you don’t get to point B, the investor isn’t going to give you any more money. If you run out of money before you get to point B, you are toast.

2)    You don’t know what you are doing

The first stages of a biotech company are always research and development. The development part means that things keep changing.

Your tech stack should support getting you from point A to point B. It doesn’t necessarily need to support the final product yet. Your final product is a moving target and if you focus too much on getting that right and not getting to point B, you will burn a lot of your runway writing a lot of code that ultimately gets deleted (and by deleted I mean stuck in a GitHub repository never to be opened again).

3)    Take on technical debt

Technical debt is the cost that you have to pay for putting off for tomorrow the stuff you could have done today. Normally, it’s cheaper to do stuff properly so you don’t have to revisit it.  

In bioinformatics, and particularly in R&D, we can be a little flexible about doing things “properly.” You don’t have to pay technical debt on code that gets deleted. This isn’t an excuse to be sloppy. You should, for example, still comment your code.

I am just saying that many successful biotechs were built on shoddy Unix scripts.

We don’t have to go that far anymore, but if your programmers are swearing at you in five years about your terrible code, that’s a win! You lasted five years and grew enough to hire judgmental programmers! Congratulations!

These three points are actually the things I have seen people struggle getting their heads around. If you get right on these, the rest is just connecting the dots.

Here is the tech stack:

4)    Stick everything on an Amazon cloud

Yeah, it costs a lot.

But cloud services give you simplicity and scalability that you can’t get from a stack of servers in a closet. This is important because you don’t know what you are doing yet so you don’t what you need.

There are a bunch of cloud solutions. I have used Amazon and that worked fine. A very basic setup would be as follows:

An s3 (simple storage service) bucket where you store most your data.

An EC2 (Elastic cloud compute) instance where your run your code

Easy, right?

The s3 buckets, if you haven’t used them, are a storage system. They look like a big computer but have a hokey and annoying file system that takes a little getting used to. They are good places to store large datasets, like the outputs of sequencing runs, but you don’t do computing on s3.

The EC2 instances look and act like regular computers/servers and can read and write data to the buckets. You can vary the size of your instance in the cloud so they can grow bigger or smaller based on how much compute power you need.

A better version of this would be to have two EC2 instances: One where you log in and one where you spin up nodes to run big jobs. These can be joined with a job scheduler such as UGER. This is a cheaper solution because you only pay for the nodes when you are using them. It also prevents two users from running into each other if they are trying to use the same resources. From here, there are many different ways to go, depending on your needs.

Amazon cloud services uses a pay-for-what-you-use model, so in general you get a bigger bill if you store more data and use more compute. The size of the bill is also based on how well you configure your setup, to make sure you aren’t reserving more things than you are using.

The exact configuration is something a good dev ops person can help you sort out. Amazon has a biotech Quickstart guide here: https://aws.amazon.com/quickstart/biotech-blueprint/

5)    Use Nextflow to run your pipelines

There are two types of biotechs: Ones that know they are biotechs and ones that think they are software development shops.

Don’t roll your own software for things where excellent solutions already exist. Especially for things that aren’t science and aren’t core to your business.

One of the biggest pain points in bioinformatics is pipelines. Pipelines are software that run other software.

For example, your complete RNA pipeline might run sequence alignment, transcript quantification, and a bunch of intermediary steps to get stuff in the right formats. Pipeline software glues all the steps together. Really great pipeline software glues it all together and makes it easy to develop and run.

Nextflow is a really great pipeline software solution. In short, it takes your shoddy Unix scripts and makes them into real code.

It takes a couple days to get used to it, but once you do it saves you a lot of time. It forces you to make your code modular with inputs and outputs. It handles multhreading on the cloud for you so you don’t have break things up into chunks or spin up multiprocessing yourself. And it can restart jobs once they fail so you can correct code and restart pipelines without, e.g. commenting out parts that already ran.

When I was at ReadCoor, I used Nextflow in my group from the beginning. It gave me the resources of a mature company from day one. For example, I set up a complete NGS stack in a couple weeks, which I could never have done with Unix scripts. And it’s free!

Nextflow also has a tower solution that controls scheduling for jobs that have to run over and over. I haven’t used that myself as it wasn’t something I needed, but for many it would be worth investigating.

There is good support within the community with the Nextflow Core project providing a lot of common bioinformatics pipelines already set up. The team also spun up a consulting service called Seqera Labs that can help you optimize your Nextflow setup (for a fee).

And if you say Nextflow three times in the mirror* on Twitter the developers will pop up and give you advice and moral support.

6)    Write all your code in python

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Everyone has a favorite language. Maybe yours isn’t python. I could generalize this should say, “choose a language and stick with it.” But I won’t. You should use python.

It is a good all-rounder in terms of functionality and scalability.

It’s really popular across domains. This means you can hire either straight up programmers or more specialized bioinformaticians who know it.

Python is inherently scalable so it can be used to code small things, like plotting scripts in Jupyter notebooks, or big collaborative projects with code bases and classes.

It is also a data sciences powerhouse. Pandas is like a domain language onto itself.  Python has packages to do advanced statistics, machine learning, and smorgasbord of visualizations.

“All your code”, of course, should be taken with a grain of salt. Python can be slow and you might some day need to write some things in C++ or Rust or something.

That’s OK.

We’re just getting started.

7)    Use GitHub for version control

Put your code in GitHub. I think everyone already knows this.

8)    Write a specification now and then

It won’t kill you and it is good for setting expectations between wet and dry lab.

9)    Install a great LIMS solution

Hahahahahahhaha! Good luck. [Bioinformatician hides under desk]

10) Be good people

Finally, bioinformatics is a small community of highly skilled people with big mouths and high standards.

You can be competitive and expect a lot from people, but if you cross the line from “good person” to “not so much” everyone is going to know.

Who’s going to do all of this stuff?

Sometimes if your needs are small this can all be outsourced. There are some really great consulting companies around now. A couple ones I know for bioinformatics are Diamond Age Data Sciences and Fulcrum Genomics. KindlyOps handles compliance issues well. BioTeam does BioIT.

But if your needs are larger, or will grow larger, it’s a good idea to at least have a roadmap in your head of where you are going.

If you want to get all the skills you will need in house, you almost always have to hire from the top down. That usually means hiring really skilled people who are going to have to do grunt work for a while until the teams are sorted. Make sure they are cool with this. (Explicitly. Ask during the interview.)

Your wet lab and your dry lab should be two arms of the same lab. They need to work together, from the experiment’s design to its finish. Make sure they are cool with this.

A good core team at the beginning might consist of a bioinformatics scientist and a developer who knows dev ops on the cloud really well. If they are going to have core responsibilities within the company, their experience, salary, and hiring level should reflect that.

Outsource your IT and desktop support. This is a different skill set and your developers should not be setting up printers. They will probably do it badly and the wet lab will get annoyed and you don’t need drama to erupt about your printers.

Consider having an experienced HR professional at the C suite level. Recruiting in biotech is a nightmare and outsourcing recruitment is really expensive with varying results.  A good HR person will take care of that.

Also, every startup is at least a little bit toxic. It is just the reality of having a small team with big goals. An HR professional will do some of the very draining emotional labor of keeping the company culture afloat. That will improve your tech stack. Really.

Finally, you can’t properly talk about hiring in biotech without addressing diversity. We all have biases, and we cannot counteract them by merely trying to be a good person (though that’s certainly a start). There are concrete techniques that can help us hire the most talented team, like removing names from resumes before evaluating them. A good HR leader should be able to help you find training and establish policies to do this properly.

So that’s it.

This is far from the only approach that will work. It is just one that I have seen work. There are many paths to the top of the mountain.

Biology offers us a universe of problems and biotech offers a universe of solutions for making the world a healthier, safer place.

Don’t let the basics get in your way.

Good luck!

*Joke shamelessly stolen from Mick Watson

Edit: Because I don’t want to inadvertently slight anyone or upset the Snakemake fans, there are other pipeline tools besides Nextflow that are worth looking into. Also, many great in house solutions (l am learning to love Martian) live in slightly older biotechs and were written from necessity before the community pipeline tools became mature.

Covidization (Worldcrunch) COVID-19 is killing people even without the virus. Spain’s Lung Cancer Group, a research body, believes lung cancer will have killed 1,300 people more in the country in 2020 than predictive models had anticipated before the pandemic struck. Between January and April this year, lockdowns and diverted healthcare resources meant 30% fewer initial oncology consultations than during those months in 2019. This is just one of the many pathologies with significantly worse data for what many are calling a “covidization” of healthcare. Covidization is a term coined by Madhukar Pai, a tuberculosis researcher at Montreal’s McGill University to describe the pandemic’s distorting effect on resource allocation, prioritization and media attention in fighting other pathologies. Data appear to have confirmed his opinion. Since April this year, the European Commission has devoted 137 million euros to research on the coronavirus, or twice all the monies spent in 2018 on tuberculosis, malaria and AIDS.

Travel in the COVID-era (Foreign Policy) In a signal of what travel in a pandemic world will look like, a group of U.S. airlines have called on the United States to drop travel restrictions banning citizens from Europe and elsewhere in favor of a pre-flight negative coronavirus test requirement. The airlines have backed a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) proposal to create a global program for testing travelers prior to entering U.S. borders. Vice President Mike Pence, the head of the White House coronavirus task force, is due to discuss the proposal during a meeting today.

Golf is not essential travel (AP) The speculation began with curious activity by U.S. military aircraft reported circling President Trump's Turnberry golf resort in western Scotland in November. Then the Sunday Post in Scotland reported that Glasgow Prestwick Airport “has been told to expect the arrival of a US military Boeing 757 aircraft, that is occasionally used by Trump, on January 19.” Could the American president, on his last full day in office, wing his way to his ancestral Scotland to hit the links at his shuttered resort, possibly missing the inauguration? On Tuesday, the leader of Scotland, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, was asked if Trump was headed her way, and what might be her message to him? At her daily news briefing, Sturgeon said, “I have no idea what Donald Trump’s travel plans are, you’ll be glad to know. … But “We are not allowing people to come into Scotland now without an essential purpose, which would apply to him, just as it applies to everybody else. Coming to play golf is not what I would consider an essential purpose.” The White House said that the reports of a Trump trip to Turnberry were “not accurate. President Trump has no plans to travel to Scotland.”

Divided U.S., Not Covid, Is the Biggest Risk to World in 2021, Survey Finds (Bloomberg) With the global economy still in the teeth of the Covid-19 crisis, the Eurasia group sees a divided U.S. as a key risk this year for a world lacking leadership. “In decades past, the world would look to the U.S. to restore predictability in times of crisis. But the world’s preeminent superpower faces big challenges of its own,” said Eurasia Group President Ian Bremmer and Chairman Cliff Kupchan in a report on the top risks for 2021. Starting with the difficulties facing the Biden Administration in a divided U.S, the report flags 10 geopolitical, climate and individual country risks that could derail the global economic recovery. An extended Covid-19 impact and K-shaped recoveries in both developed and emerging economies is the second biggest risk factor cited in the report. Biden will have difficulty gaining new confidence in U.S. global leadership as he struggles to manage domestic crises, the report said. With a large segment of the U.S. casting doubt over his legitimacy, the political effectiveness and longevity of his “asterisk presidency,” the future of the Republican Party, and the very legitimacy of the U.S. political model are all in question, it added. “A superpower torn down the middle cannot return to business as usual. And when the most powerful country is so divided, everybody has a problem,” said Bremmer and Kupchan.

Venezuela’s socialists take control of once-defiant congress (AP) Nicolás Maduro was set to extend his grip on power Tuesday as the ruling socialist party prepared to assume the leadership of Venezuela’s congress, the last institution in the country it didn’t already control. Maduro’s allies swept legislative elections last month boycotted by the opposition and denounced as a sham by the U.S., the European Union and several other foreign governments. While the vote was marred by anemically low turnout, it nonetheless seemed to relegate into irrelevancy the U.S.-backed opposition led by 37-year-old lawmaker Juan Guaidó. The opposition’s political fortunes have tanked as Venezuelans own hopes for change have collapsed. Recent opinion polls show support for Guaidó having fallen by more than half since he first rose to challenge Maduro two years ago. Meanwhile, Maduro has managed to retain a solid grip on power and the military, the traditional arbiter of political disputes.

Few reforms would benefit Japan as much as digitising government (Economist) It is a ritual almost as frequent and as fleeting as observing the cherry blossoms each year. A new Japanese government pledges to move more public services online. Almost as soon as the promise is made, it falls to the ground like a sad pink petal. In 2001 the government announced it would digitise all its procedures by 2003—yet almost 20 years later, just 7.5% of all administrative procedures can be completed online. Only 7.3% of Japanese applied for any sort of government service online, well behind not only South Korea and Iceland, but also Mexico and Slovakia. Japan is an e-government failure. That is a great pity, and not just for hapless Japanese citizens wandering from window to window in bewildering government offices. Japan’s population is shrinking and ageing. With its workforce atrophying, Japan relies even more than other economies on gains in productivity to maintain prosperity. The Daiwa Institute of Research, a think-tank in Tokyo, reckons that putting government online could permanently boost gdp per person by 1%. The lapse is all the more remarkable given Japan’s wealth and technological sophistication. Indeed, that seems to be part of the problem. Over the years big local technology firms have vied for plum contracts to develop it systems for different, fiercely autonomous, government departments. Most ended up designing custom software for each job. The result is a profusion of incompatible systems.

An ‘orchard of bad apples’ weighs on new Afghan peace talks (AP) Afghan negotiators are to resume talks with the Taliban on Tuesday aimed at finding an end to decades of relentless conflict even as hopes wane and frustration and fear grow over a spike in violence across Afghanistan that has combatants on both sides blaming the other. Torek Farhadi, a former Afghan government advisor, said the government and the Taliban are “two warring minorities,” with the Afghan people caught in between—“one says they represent the republic, the other says we want to end foreign occupation and corruption. But the war is (only) about power.” The stop-and-go talks come amid growing doubt over a U.S.-Taliban peace deal brokered by outgoing President Donald Trump. An accelerated withdrawal of U.S. troops ordered by Trump means just 2,500 American soldiers will still be in Afghanistan when President-elect Joe Biden takes office this month. The Taliban have grown in strength since their ouster in 2001 and today control or hold sway over half the country. But a consensus has emerged that a military victory is impossible for either side.

Iraq, Struggling to Pay Debts and Salaries, Plunges Into Economic Crisis (NYT) Economists say Iraq is facing its biggest financial threat since Saddam Hussein’s time. Iraq is running out of money to pay its bills. That has created a financial crisis with the potential to destabilize the government—which was ousted a year ago after mass protests over corruption and unemployment—touch off fighting among armed groups, and empower Iraq’s neighbor and longtime rival, Iran. With its economy hammered by the pandemic and plunging oil and gas prices, which account for 90 percent of government revenue, Iraq was unable to pay government workers for months at a time last year. Last month, Iraq devalued its currency, the dinar, for the first time in decades, immediately raising prices on almost everything in a country that relies heavily on imports. And last week, Iran cut Iraq’s supply of electricity and natural gas, citing nonpayment, leaving large parts of the country in the dark for hours a day. “I think it’s dire,” said Ahmed Tabaqchali, an investment banker and senior fellow at the Iraq-based Institute of Regional and International Studies. “Expenditures are way above Iraq’s income.” Many Iraqis fear that despite Iraqi government denials there will be more devaluations to come.

Qatar ruler lands in Saudi Arabia for summit to end blockade (AP) Qatar’s ruling emir arrived in Saudi Arabia and was greeted with an embrace by the kingdom’s crown prince on Tuesday, following an announcement that the kingdom would end its yearslong embargo on the tiny Gulf Arab state. The decision to open borders was the first major step toward ending the diplomatic crisis that has deeply divided U.S. defense partners, frayed societal ties and torn apart a traditionally clubby alliance of Arab states. The diplomatic breakthrough comes after a final push by the outgoing Trump administration and fellow Gulf state Kuwait to mediate an end to the crisis. The timing was auspicious: Saudi Arabia may be seeking to both grant the Trump administration a final diplomatic win and remove stumbling blocs to building warm ties with the Biden administration, which is expected to take a firmer stance toward the kingdom. Qatar’s only land border has been mostly closed since June mid-2017, when Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain launched a boycott of the small but influential Persian Gulf country. The Saudi border, which Qatar relied on for the import of dairy products, construction materials and other goods, opened briefly during the past three years to allow Qataris into Saudi Arabia to perform the Islamic hajj pilgrimage. It was unclear what concessions Qatar had made regarding a shift in its policies. While the Saudi decision to end the embargo marks a milestone toward resolving the spat, the path toward full reconciliation is far from guaranteed.

Oncology Medical Billing Services Made Easy By 24/7 Medical Billing Services

With constantly changing medical billing industry standards and evolving new regulation and technologies, the approach towards medical billing system has been completely transformed. In recent years, oncology practices that did not have a proper medical billing system in place have fallen into pit holes of new medical billing procedures. It expects practices to go well with certain medical trends.

Through this blog, we would like to highlight the reasons that affect oncology billing and how 24/7 Medical Billing Services can make it super light for oncology practices to handle effortlessly.

#The ICD-10 coding

The ICD-10 codes came into existence tripling the number of codes along with replacing ICD-09, and it was classified as 71,924 procedural codes and 69,823 diagnosis codes. It becomes a necessity and stress for your in-house medical coders to learn all these codes and apply it properly during billing and submitting medical claims. Moreover, it may affect your staff’s regular work schedule as well, resulting in billing errors and delayed/pending reimbursements. This affects your revenue generation and puts you in a stressful situation.

This is why many oncology medical practices prefer outsourcing their medical billing process to a third-party provider and continue with their regular workflow. Outsourcing oncology medical billing makes it easier for practices to focus on patient care rather than spending time on implementing and adapting to ICD-10 coding.

# Electronic health records

We could see many oncology practices have implemented maintaining electronic health records (EHR) but still some are lacking integration of billing software. EHR with billing integration helps physicians to get paid on time and without any hassle. It reduces the time taken to fill forms to receive payments. To save time and money with this administrative burden, oncologists intend to outsource their medical billing system and stay away from billing chaos.

# The Affordable Care Act

The Affordable Care Act was introduced to make health care available and accessible to all, along with making it beneficial for those who are previously uninsured too. The more the people get insured, the more procedures and medial coding & billing come. With strict documentation rules imposed by ACA in place, accuracy became a 100% necessary attribute to medical billers and coders. Therefore, many oncology practices approached outsourcing their medical billing process so as to get 100% reimbursements with reduced denial rates or billing delays, providing balance of work between patients, physicians, and providers.

# Value-based payment

It has been predicted that within the next five years, the reimbursement will be totally based on quality of care and operating a fee-for-service model will be slowly ruling out. Although many physicians have raised their concern against this value-based payment model, it is a fact that the future of healthcare billing will be to an unimagined level.

If this comes in place, then oncologists will be forced to a situation to assess the payers’ market and validate the new billing, coding and documentation process. Additionally, the time spent by physicians with their patient may exceed which results in allocating less time towards your practice’s operational requirements.

Since you have to spend more time with your patients, you need a dedicated team to handle your medical billing process.

Conclusion

24/7 Medical Billing Services can bring an extensible medical billing system to your oncology practice, allowing you ease out your burdens in medical billing and coding with respect to claims submission and reimbursements and can get you easily transited to value-based payment, maximizing your revenue and effectively handling your operational tasks.
