NextGen EMR's coding optimization functions help you to maximize third-party payments and withstand audits scrutinizing how well your documentation supports evaluation and management coding.
Pick lists, check boxes, and prompts within the patient encounter templates ensure your providers “count” all activities that contribute to the key components of an office visit. NextGen EMR software then suggests the appropriate code based on the documentation provided. This helps your practice not only avoid potentially fraudulent upcoding, it also helps eliminate the more frequent problem of undercoding, a pattern that can exclude thousands of dollars from your bottom line.
Because of the comprehensive nature of the office visit template and inherent documentation, your practice can submit claims confidently, knowing you have chosen the appropriate code level and that your medical record will support you in the event of an audit.
