Platform

[edit]

AdvancedMD's EHR platform is a cloud-based system that enables healthcare providers to access patient records from various locations.[2] The platform includes customizable templates for different medical specialties, allowing for customization at the note and subnote levels.[2] It also features a visual task management tool called "Task Donuts," which is designed to assist medical staff in prioritizing and managing their workload.[2] The system supports electronic integrations, including digital faxing and e-prescribing, and provides analytics tools that provide insights into operational efficiency and support Clinical Quality Reporting.[2]

AdvancedMD's medical billing software is integrated with its EHR system to provide a unified platform.[3] This integration includes a "One-click" feature designed to facilitate the collection of copays by displaying patient information, copays, and eligibility status.[3] The billing software also integrates with credit card processing systems, allowing charges to be automatically posted to a patient's account after a card swipe.[3]
