Medisoft is a term that describes any computer software intended to speed up the billing process or store increased amounts of medical information.
These programs maintain patient, procedure and billing information on a main database that many computers at a medical facility can access simultaneously. Doctors or other medical personnel can use the software whenever a patient has been charged and has paid the correct amount.
Medisoft software stores patient information such as addresses, phone numbers, next of kin, emergency contact information, a patient's outstanding balances , previous amounts paid and whether the patient has insurance and what company the insurance is provided through. It can check the eligibility of insurance claims immediately to find out what a patient needs to pay after a medical procedure.
I would completely recommend the use of Medisoft for medical offices. Using this software can greatly lower your overhead and the cost of labor as the amount of paperwork would be greatly reduced. Medisoft programs are able to quickly access insurance information so that personnel can provide patients with answers to questions quickly instead of waiting to contact an insurance company.
