Adopting EHR and Software Driven Medical Billing
Practices for your Chiropractic Clinic
Chiropractic medicine has evolved exponentially in the past decade with changing
lifestyle of masses. With increasing patient walk in and improving avenues of care that
can be offered by chiropractic, it becomes essential for this alternate mode of
healthcare to adopt mainstream billing procedures and EHR/EMR in their operations.
Electronic Health Records and Electronic Medical Records in addition to billing specific
software assist in efficient data recording as well as data transfer. Recent health
regulations have increased the focus of government and insurance carriers on
compliance with healthcare standards.
EHR/EMR not only assists in execution of regular administrative functions but also adds
value to your chiropractic medical billing by categorically saving and reporting relevant
information. Chiropractic clinics become eligible for EHR stimulus by practicing and
showing meaningful use of EHR. Medicare and Medicaid claim settlement percentage
also improves successively for those medical practices that adopt EMR and software
driven medical billing practices. Medical billing practices adapted to automation can
benefit most in terms of –
 Electronic Claim Processing – Claim processing is the most time consuming and
attention demanding process. Automation of this process can drastically reduce
errors as well as improve the processing time
 Patient complaint registration and recording of documentation on a real time basis
– Chiropractic clinics rely heavily on patient satisfaction in terms of service
expectation and service delivery. To account for any gap in care provided by the
chiropractor, it is important to record patient complaints and remedy them on a real
time basis.

 Easy record transfer with complete adherence to compliance – Adherence to HIPAA
compliance and other healthcare regulations can be effectively ensured by adopting
need specific billing software.
 Scheduling of patient appointments and procedures, with built-in appointment
reminders – Appointment cancellation and rescheduling is the most recurrent
phenomenon in chiropractic which leads to decreased control over revenue cycle.
With automation of appointment scheduling, better monitoring of patient inflow
can be done and loss of revenue can be checked.
 Maintaining deductibles tracker – Deductibles have a direct impact on the over all
profitability of your chiropractic clinic.
 Generation of medical reports – End of week and end of month medical reports can
be generated with the help of medical billing software which can add value to your
overall administration as well as financial operations.
 Managing office statistics as well as coding changes in the medical billing system –
Chiropractic medical coding involves both ICD 10 and CPT changes. To include both
effectively in billing processes, it is important to have a continually updating system.
 Generating customized sentences and chart notes – Chiropractic patient interaction
depends heavily on subjective evaluation of the cause of pain and recording of the
same. Every Chiropractor needs these customized notes in subsequent
appointments with patients to ensure consistent care and service.
