Missing Revenue Thanks to Manual Billing Processes?

Paper can create a host of challenges for physician practices. Charge slips, notes and other paper-based documentation require staff to sift through them and enter charges into your billing system. It’s a labor-intensive and error-prone workflow – and it can’t even begin if the documentation you need is in the hands of physicians or the hospital’s HIM department.

But a billing workflow littered with paper is more than an inconvenience. All the duplicate work and information gaps compromises your cash flow by elongating billing cycles. You may even miss revenue opportunities due to unbilled encounters.

Streamline Your Revenue Cycle with Salar

Salar’s TAP Charge Capture solution helps your practice improve its bottom line by streamlining billing from the point of care. TAP enables physicians to capture charges automatically from their documentation and integrates with practice billing systems to flow charges in real time.

By eliminating manual charge collection processes, TAP helps you realize an efficient, accurate and accountable billing workflow:

  • Improve cash flow by reducing lag time between service and invoice dates
  • Increase revenue and accountability by ensuring every charge, including compliant CPT and supporting ICD-9 codes is supported by documentation and no encounter goes unbilled
  • Enhance practice-wide visibility with real-time access to charge status, physician productivity and other information
