The EHR Solution Specially Designed for Community Healthcare
Like the NACHC, Meditab is fully committed to advancing health equity for all. And we carry out this mission by building more than just an EHR system—we deliver a comprehensive solution that empowers community healthcare providers to deliver exceptional care. Meditab understands that community health centers face complex challenges, so here are key IMS features specially designed to meet them:
Fully Integrated Reporting Tools
IMS for Community Health is designed to handle UDS and UDS+ submissions with precision, ensuring accurate, timely, and compliant reporting.
Equipped with a robust practice analytics feature, a seamlessly integrated UDS reporting portal, and updated reporting templates, you can rest assured that your UDS 2024 reports meet regulatory requirements and reflect the actual performance of your practice.
With the United States Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) requiring a minimum UDS+ submission from all health centers for calendar year 2024, you can use IMS’s UDS+ module to bypass the manual processes and automate data collection and reporting.
Multiple Specialties on One Unified Platform
Catering to a diverse patient population doesn’t have to be complicated and overwhelming. IMS is engineered to deliver specialty-specific features in a conveniently modular design. This allows you to customize our powerful EHR platform to meet the unique needs of different specialties within your practice.
Whether you’re looking for an antepartum module for OB/GYN or a periodontal charting feature for dental, IMS for Community Health can optimize multiple specialty workflows on one system, empowering you to provide more efficient and specialized care to the communities you serve.
Built-In Billing System
Operating a community health center comes with unique financial challenges, including reliance on federal grants, reimbursement disparities, and funding fluctuations. However, IMS’s integrated billing module can handle complex billing scenarios with ease, reducing the administrative workload, minimizing error, and increasing revenue.
For example, IMS can efficiently manage Medicare billing intricacies by splitting payments for dual-eligible patients. For CHCs in California, IMS can also automate wrap-around billing, allowing you to streamline processes and ensure accurate reimbursements.
Sliding Fee Scale Automation
Managing sliding fee scales can be a complex and error-prone task, especially when serving a diverse patient base with varying financial needs. If manual rate and discount adjustments take too much time and effort from your team, IMS can streamline the process and maximize your resources.
IMS can help you boost efficiency and precision by automatically applying the correct sliding fee scale based on patient income and other factors. By automating scale determinations, you can ensure your patients receive the appropriate financial assistance while optimizing revenue and reducing administrative burden.
Grant Eligibility Tracker
Efficiently manage your grants with IMS’s comprehensive grant tracking module. This feature allows you to monitor grant applications, track fund usage, and ensure compliance with grant requirements.
With easy access to detailed reports and real-time data, you can better manage your resources, streamline reporting for grantors, and enhance the effectiveness of your funding strategies. This module supports better oversight and utilization of grant resources, helping you achieve your funding goals and sustain your practice.
