WINNIPEG, MANITOBA, CANADA - Prognition Corp., which makes
  Mavenlive exercise software,
  has made product improvements for easier billing and coding procedures.
  
The enhancements make it easy for users to document patients' treatment, and the physiotherapy software evaluates the
  data to generate the proper billing codes required by billing software to submit
  reimbursement claims, said Chris Metcalfe, Mavenlive's vice president of technical
development. 
The current process routinely used is: a therapist records the patient's prescribed
  therapy to the patient and the number of therapy units performed, Metcalfe said. 
"The therapist usually records these rehabilitation exercises on paper and
  forwards to administrative staff," Metcalfe said. 
The administrator interprets the therapy and quantity recorded before determining
  which billing codes to use. The administrator typically enters those codes into the
  billing software- or onto paper forms if the practice hasn't gone paperless. From
  there, the clinic forwards claims for reimbursement. 
"Mavenlive rehab exercise software interprets the recorded therapy and creates the appropriate
  billing codes automatically," said Dr. Jay Winburn, Mavenlive's president. "Once
  we have those codes, we send them via HL7 messages to the integrated billing
  software packages." 
Physical therapy electronic documentation software users benefit in a couple of ways, Metcalfe said. Having
  this ability eliminates the need for physical therapists to document on paper what
  was prescribed because their documentation can be done in Mavenlive via point and
  click. It also eliminates the need for administrative staff to interpret what codes
  should be billed based on the prescribed therapies, as well as removes the need for
  manually entering these codes for each claim. 
Mavenlive tells the billing software which billing codes to apply to each patient
  visit, he said, adding, "This will be a big time saver for therapists and
  administrators for each patient visit."
