Join Frank Long, Editorial Director of Rehab Management as he speaks with

John Wallace, PT, chief executive officer of BMS Practice Solutions.

Electronic medical records (EMRs) are not a free pass to compliance happiness. Use an EMR incorrectly and it could create problems. Clinic managers who understand the strengths and limitations of EMRs can use the systems most effectively when they understand:

• What are the most important things the medical record has to demonstrate?

• What problems may arise when a patient or payer requests copies of a patient’s medical record?

You’ll also hear John explain considerations for amending the medical record, and explore the value of accounts receivable management in meeting regulatory requirements and maximizing collections for services rendered.

The podcast is sponsored by BMS Practice Solutions.
