Enhance Reach of your Podiatry Practice and Patient Satisfaction with Comprehensive Telenephrology Software

1. Web Patient Portal for laptops, tablets and desktops
2. Telemedicine app with embedded patient portal app
3. Payment Gateway (Integrity Pays)
4. Zoom Integration

Uses of Telenephrology

• Telemedicine visits are useful for simple issues and for providing health education to patients.  They can be used to do patient assessments and evaluations, medication management, treatment planning, and even supervision and crisis intervention.  For example, a patient can send their salt intake and blood pressure log to their Nephrologist ahead of the visit (asynchronous telemedicine service) or the patient can go on a live video chat with their Nephrology provider during a home dialysis session to enable the provider to observe and evaluate the patient and their response to the dialysis in real time. (synchronous telemedicine service).
• These “virtual” or telemedicine visits allow the Nephrology team and patients to interact and communicate in many ways, including: discussion of symptoms, observation/assessment of many physical signs, collection of pertinent data, explanation of test results, communication of diagnoses, and discussion of treatment options.
• Our Nephrology EMR enables providers to conduct patient consultations through real-time videoconferencing that is both secure and HIPAA-compliant.
• Telenephrology visits allow more flexibility, save travel time, and decrease the amount of “downtime” that patients spend in waiting rooms.  More importantly, telemedicine visits enable patients to get the care they need while lowering their risk of exposure to contagious diseases during times when social distancing is necessary.

Reimbursement and Coding for Telemedicine

• Telemedicine services can be performed in one of two ways:

• Store and forward (asynchronous): Patient submits an image, pre-recorded video, or copy of document(s) for the physician to review and provide advice, e.g., patient uploads the data from a blood pressure monitoring wearable device electronically to the Nephrologist.
• Live interactive (synchronous): Real-time two-way interaction between the physician and patient or another physician e.g., a Nephrologist provides expert consultation services to doctors in distant rural hospital via video conferencing, on the management of their patients with acute kidney injury or chronic kidney diseases, including co-performing physical examination of patients undergoing dialysis.

• CMS is providing various waivers and flexibilities designed to help Internists and other Nephrology practitioners deal with the COVID-19 pandemic.  Many of these flexibilities cover provision of care via telemedicine. For example, CMS now also allows Nephrology practitioners to deliver telemedicine services while working from their own home while continuing to bill for these services from their officially enrolled practice location.
• The American Society of Nephrology (ASN) has provided comprehensive Telehealth information on their website a sample list of codes that can be used by Providers for telemedicine visits.

e-Prescription integrated with Medication Management for Adherence Improves Productivity and Empowers Providers with Timely and Targeted Information

With electronic prescribing, or e-Prescribing, providers enter prescription information into a device such as a tablet, laptop, or desktop computer – and securely transmit data to pharmacies using a software program and connectivity to a transmission network. When a pharmacy receives a request, it fills the medication right away.

Key benefits of our e-Prescription solution include:

• Ability to send e-prescriptions immediately from your patient’s chart to their desired pharmacy
• Improved prescription accuracy and reduced medical errors through automatic interaction checks including drug-drug or drug-allergy issues
• Better connectivity with PACs and labs
• Reduced risk of controlled substance abuse, particularly pain management medication
• Lower out-of-pocket cost to patients through access to prescription eCoupon discounts
• Simplify prescription management for both patients and providers.
• Immediately access patient medical records, including information about patient medications, prescription history, and allergies

Medication Management for Adherence

• Medication non-adherence is a national epidemic. Medication non-adherence, sub-optimal prescribing, and improper drug administration cost the U.S over $300 billion annually. More than 20% of an employer’s healthcare cost is caused by non-adherence, with 50% of patients never taking the medication as prescribed.

Medication Management for Adherence from Surescripts is integrated into PrognoCIS Psychiatry EHR. Surescripts analyzes prescription usage data from Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) and funnels relevant information into PrognoCIS. This information empowers physicians to improve adherence by arming them with timely and targeted information.
