PLANO, Texas, May 2, 2000 (PRIMEZONE) -- e-360, inc., a leading provider of patient management software for handheld Palm OS devices, and CODE7 announced today the development of an end-to-end point of service billing solution for medical professionals using The Medical Manager(r). CODE7 has extensive experience with integrating third party software with The Medical Manager and is a certified Medical Manager Data Merge Developer.
1-Box(tm) Connected software for Palm OS handheld devices combined with CODE7's interface results in a robust, stable system that allows a user to access, collect, and transfer large amounts of patient demographic and insurance data - anytime, anyplace. Using a Palm OS handheld, 1-Box Connected provides access to thousands of patient files, hospital rounds lists, and virtual coding books. All patient-physician encounters can be recorded in the 1-Box Connected handheld.
Encounter information is transferred automatically to the practice management system by placing the handheld computer in a cradle attached to an office PC. The download process, called a HotSync(r), is accomplished by pressing one button on the cradle. The data transfers seamlessly into the practice management system. This process creates a pending claim for each encounter reducing labor costs and decreasing the chance for costly errors. Following standard office processes for accuracy and compliance reviews, the billing staff enters additional required information for claims submission.
This exciting new technology has changed the way many medical providers practice. 1-Box Connected enables Palm OS handheld devices to become a mobile terminal for the practice management system. Similar interfaces are available for most popular practice management systems.
CODE7 develops interfaces that integrate with many leading Electronic Medical Record systems. e-360, inc is a leading provider of patient encounter management software for handheld devices. Headquartered in Plano, Texas, e-360 is a privately held company. e-360, inc can be contacted though their web site (http://www.1-Box.com/) for additional information about this and other powerful handheld solutions.
