Practice Management software
Practice management software runs the business side of a medical office, from the schedule to the claim.
Overview
What it does
It handles appointments, patient registration, insurance verification, billing, and reporting. Front desk staff and office managers work in it all day. Many vendors bundle it with an EHR, and others sell it as a standalone system that connects to the chart you already use.
How to choose
Decide whether you want one vendor for the EHR and practice management or two connected systems. One vendor simplifies support, while separate systems let you pick the strongest tool for each job.
Features
