3. Electronic Medical Records (EMR)

With so many electronic medical record software systems, on the market today, it's difficult to wade through the features and functionality of each EMR software to make sure that it fits the needs of your busy practice. SilverTree Health researches EMR software solutions that have been specifically designed to stand out in the market, with designs that eliminates navigation and makes multi-tasking a true reality.

While many EMR's are confusing and require your staff to migrate from screen to screen for the right information, SilverTree Health investigates fresh new EMR designs which utilizes a “tab” concept for simplicity and ease of navigation. Just as tabbed browsing is improving multitasking for internet users, tabs in an electronic medical records allow you to multi-task like never before. SilverTree Health’s physicians consults with over 200 EMR companies that allow you and your staff to display multiple patients at a time, several patients’ encounter notes, workflow items, patient flow, messages, alerts, and more and works with many applications.

Let a SilverTree Health consulting physician guide you to “simply make the right choice”. Instead of forcing you to change your work processes, we will help mold the EMR into your practice and let you decide how workflow and processes should be done.

SilverTree offers initial training topics including: phone etiquette, appointment scheduling, taking money over-the-counter, developing x-rays, entering charges, billing terminology and support and much more.

Before writing off old claims which remain unpaid, we will exhaust every avenue available to attempt the collection of receivables due on claims previously submitted and uncollected. (NOTE: If you are contracting with SilverTree Billing Solutions for Diamond Level Billing services, this would apply to any previously submitted and unpaid claims prior to your contract with us). Our fees for this service are customized to meet your specific needs.

Verification of Benefits

SilverTree Billing Solutions will verify benefits before a patient is seen in the provider's office. This is vital to any practice, and an essential step to ensure reimbursement from insurance carriers. Understanding how a patient's specific benefits for your office services is anticipated to be rendered will help not only your practice but your patients as well. Ideally performed in-house, SilverTree Billing Solutions offers this service to those practices that are insufficiently staffed to handle this task.

Birthday Cards

Sending your patients birthday cards is a wonderful way to strengthen your relationship with them, promote new referrals, and promote repeat business. Some of your patients may only receive one birthday card a year, the one that comes from your office. This is a very powerful marketing tool and patients appreciate that their doctor remembers their birthday.

Newsletters

Most practices would like to communicate at least monthly or quarterly with their existing patient base, however it can be very time–consuming to research new and exciting information that can be used for your literature. We provide custom newsletters made specifically with your office and patients in mind. These can be mailed to your patients or sent via e-mail.

Form Creation

Our staff can customize your office forms to ensure adequate information for insurance review and to allow better work flow for your staff. This includes Customized Superbills, Insurance Verifications, New Patient Registration forms, etc.
