PLANO, Texas, March 23, 2000 (PRIMEZONE) -- e-360, Inc., a leading provider of patient management software for handheld Palm OS devices has introduced 1-Box Practice Manager. 1-Box Practice Manager provides physicians with instant handheld access to 14, 000 patients' files, volumes of coding data, and previous encounter information. The design of the screens and the logical flow of data has been refined using feedback from physicians in all major specialties.
Today, physicians are under pressure to improve the efficiency of their information processes due to managed care and government programs that have increased requirements for reimbursement. Physicians must know what insurance plan a patient is covered under in order to make better decisions for their patients. The attending physician must deal with over 7,000 Current Procedural Terminology Codes (CPT) and more than 15,000 International Classifications of Diseases Codes (ICD) when submitting a claim.
The 1-Box Practice Manager allows physicians to print patient information, patient encounter reports, and rounds lists wirelessly from the handheld. The 1-Box Practice Manager includes a Windows Based desktop application for reporting and entering patient information.
"The 1-Box product line is exactly what we want to provide to our customers. We truly believe that this will enable our physicians to provide higher quality patient care combined with a convenient and easy to use handheld device for recording patient billing information and improving their cash flow." Ann Laman, President, Medical Office Management Solutions, Inc. an authorized PCN provider.
1-Box Practice Manager is the third product from the 1-Box platform of products.
