Billing

• One of the most common uses of medical software for doctors is billing. This allows the medical office to keep track of insurance claims and patient accounts, as well as the payments and interest associated with each of the accounts. This helps ensure that no claims are lost, no patients are under-charged or over-charged, and that the office is able to meet its financial needs.
  
  

Patient Accounts

• The patient accounts portion of medical software helps to keep the patient information in an easily accessible area, where the doctor and other staff can pull it up whenever necessary. Because it is electronic, not only does it save a ton of paper, but it is also keeps patient information confidential because it requires a password to access.
  
  

Scheduling

• Scheduling software comes in handy for keeping patient appointments. This is especially useful in offices with multiple physicians, as it helps to avoid scheduling conflicts and over-scheduling of appointments. With some software, patients can be sent email reminders, helping to avoid missed appointments and last minute cancellations.
