Pay-for-Performance: Will you be a loser?

“Pay-for-performance reimbursement plans and consumer-directed health plans both depend on assessing and distributing information on clinical performance. Physicians who don’t have the means to track their own clinical results will be losers, literally, of patient volume and revenues.”

“Medicare Quality Codes & Their Impact on Physicians” ICLOPS, LLC. December 2005

With these new plans and governmental mandates, physicians need to be equipped with the tools to properly, easily and efficiently track their own clinical results. Capturing appropriate documentation of diagnoses and procedures will result in capturing appropriate revenue for the facility and the physician. ComplyMD is a web-based application located inside or immediately outside the OR to help physicians capture appropriate documentation, at the point of service. The more time physicians wait to document (dictate) their procedures, the more room they leave for error in their documentation.

ComplyMD gives physicians multiple choice lists of proper, code-ready documentation of diagnoses and procedures. It creates a comprehensive operative note for the patient encounter that’s ready to be sent to the coder’s office, immediately after the procedure. ComplyMD gives physicians the tools to track their own results so they will not be losers of patient volume and revenues, and their facilities will not be found as losers either.
