PracticeXpert, Inc. (OTCBB:PXPT) today announced the release of the latest version of its PX Pocket PC system for charge capture. This new version includes, among other enhancements, G-codes for medical oncology.
Since a substantial portion of PracticeXpert's Revenue Management Services customers (outsourced medical billing and related services) are oncologists, the addition of oncology G-codes was seen as a necessary and logical product enhancement. The PX Pocket PC system is fully integrated with PracticeXpert's practice management and electronic medical records products, Xpert Practice Manager, and Xpert Electronic Health Record.
With over 70% of the company's revenues derived from revenue management services, most of which are with medical oncology and radiation oncology practices throughout the country, the focus of this new enhancement is to streamline the charge capture process and incorporate the requirements for the new "2006 Oncology Demonstration Program."
Zima Hartz, SVP of Product Development at PracticeXpert, stated, "Providers quickly realize that using G-codes is an extremely paper and labor intensive process. We reduced the coding process to a few seconds: PX Pocket PC assesses a patient's insurance, diagnosis, and the visit type and produces a list of only appropriate G-Codes. The user can instantly look up the detailed descriptions of the G-codes. This solution is a perfect example of our software applications that saves time and effort to help facilitate prompt payment."
"Medical oncology practices have been challenged with declining reimbursement and new regulations affecting their billing processes," said Jonathan Doctor, CEO of PracticeXpert. "This functionality is designed to reduce turnaround time for payment and reduce the risk of rejected claims due to coding errors, ultimately enhancing collections for the physician".
At this point in time the PX Pocket PC system is only available to our Revenue Management Services clients. The company plans to make this product available to all software clients later in 2006.
