Immediate Home Health and Hospice Implements Forcura and Transitions to a Paperless Office
The Forcura solution improved cash flow and reduced administrative costs.
Online, March 21, 2014 (Newswire.com) - In December, Immediate Home Care and Hospice partnered with Forcura LLC, the healthcare leader in document management and document workflow. This affiliation has allowed Immediate Home Health and Hospice to become a paperless company and reduce their cost per episode.
Forcura is a web-based platform that seamlessly integrates with any healthcare company's existing EMR software and allows them to send, track, receive, and store patient chart documentation electronically. By drastically reducing the time it takes to send and receive Face To Face encounters and physician orders, the Forcura solution eliminates the manual processing of these documents. The solution enables web-based accessibility to any patient chart document, by any staff member, at any location.
"The Forcura solution has far exceeded our initial projections of administrative cost savings," said Cheryl Peltekis, Vice President of Clinical Services of Immediate Home Care and Hospice. "Within the first two months, we realized improved cash flow, write-off reductions and administrative cost savings. Forcura's consultative approach enabled us to implement a highly impactful tool and automate most of our back-office processes."
