Getting Paid Faster with Physician Portal

HomecareCRM, a customer relationship management tool specifically created for the home health care industry, offers a unique physician portal that both streamlines administrative processes and gives your organization a competitive edge. This physician portal grants physicians’ limited access to your system and automates many administrative tasks, resulting in faster order processing, better Care Plan Oversight, faster sign offs, faster invoicing, and improved cash flow.

In today’s overburdened health care environment, physicians are long on responsibilities and short on time. With the physician portal in place, the various administrative requirements placed on referring physicians can be automated. Not only is this more efficient, it’s also appreciated by busy physicians that simply have little time to spare. Among the many benefits the physician portal delivers are:

1. Reduces processing time for routine tasks. The physician portal reduces the administration time to process an order, cert, re-cert, or 485 from 15 to 20 minutes per patient to less than 60 seconds per patient. These time savings are dramatic. For example, with just five patients what would normally take over an hour is accomplished in less than five minutes!

2. Automates Care Plan Oversight management. The physician portal automates the management of Care Plan Oversight which further reduces the amount of time it takes physicians to perform their duties and increases profitability. With specific conditions that must be met in order to bill for Care Plan Oversight, management tools ensure that nothing is overlooked and that deadlines do not come and go without the required amount of oversight.

3. Increases cash flow. The physician portal can dramatically increases your agency's cash flow by decreasing the time it takes to get a signoff from three to four weeks to one to two days, thus resulting in much faster billing and collections. The sooner you can send a bill, the sooner you can expect payment.

4. Reduces labor costs. The physician portal substantially reduces the labor time invested in tracking down physicians for various signatures. This is because most physicians will now process proactively rather than waiting to be asked to finalize. With the physician portal in place, the process is easy on all parties involved.

5. Gives your company a competitive edge. The physician portal provides your agency with a huge competitive differentiator in today’s marketplace, resulting in vast increases of newly recruited referral sources, and a much stronger bond of loyalty with existing referral sources. After all, not only are you providing a valuable home health care service, you are also saving your referring physicians time and making their jobs easier.


We all want to work smarter, reduce the amount of time we spend on routine tasks, and improve cash flow. HomecareCRM’s physician portal allows home health care agencies to do this while also helping their referring physicians do the same.
