Many hospitals find that after some years on the MEDITECH HCIS that they may not be taking full advantage of the system capabilities. Often with staff turnover, some user knowledge is not transferred or with other distractions, your organization may not have taken advantage of new updates and features. We provide the following services to assist with regaining the value of the MEDITECH HCIS:

HCIS AND INDIVIDUAL DEPT AND APPLICATIONS ASSESSMENTS
As with our planning services, we will assess how you utilize the MEDITECH HCIS either organization-wide or focus on an individual department or application. We will identify your level of usage compared with current capabilities and user knowledge. Our consultants will assist developing a plan to achieve the use of the MEDITECH software that best matches your needs and will work with you to build a support structure within your organization to maintain a high level of expertise internally.
OPTIMIZATION OF CURRENT SOFTWARE & BUSINESS OPERATIONS IMPROVEMENT
Oftentimes there are system-wide challenges that go beyond individual departments. Two areas receiving a lot of attention are:
- REVENUE CYCLE IMPROVEMENT Improved revenue capture and cash collection result from many parts of the organization working together. Charge capture involves all revenue producing departments; cash collections start with collecting patient data at the time of scheduling and registration. We understand how all the components of MEDITECH work together and can assist your organization to align workflow with the capabilities of the software. We can also help you implement the solution whether it is user training, improved claims management, electronic EDI implementation or setting up a denial management program.
- CLINICAL DOCUMENTATION As MEDITECH has enhanced their Patient Care System (PCS) and Nursing (NUR) modules over the years, we have found many hospitals need to re-build and re-implement these applications. We assist with this process from identifying and defining clinical documentation strategy and approach, building inter-disciplinary teams, involving physicians in anticipation of their using this data and ensuring that MEDITECH newest features and capabilities are known to the project team. Our PCS and NUR experts can assist with hands-on system building and user training.
