New Haven, Connecticut and Cape Girardeau, Missouri (PRWEB) February 27, 2009
Chart Links, a provider of
rehabilitation workflow management software, announces the implementation of its therapy documentation and scheduling
system by a team of 26 physical, occupational and speech therapists and assistants at HealthPoint Rehab, consisting of
two outpatient rehabilitation facilities, for Southeast Missouri Hospital. Southeast Missouri Hospital is a 269-bed regional
medical complex serving nearly 600,000 people in 21 counties in southeast Missouri and southern Illinois.
The implementation includes functionality for electronic therapy documentation, cross-discipline therapy scheduling,
referral and insurance authorization management, charges and more. It also includes an ADT and billing interface to the
Meditech hospital information system.
"Transitioning to electronic medical records was the right decision," says Frankie Erlacker, PT, MHS, Executive Director of
HealthPoint Rehab. "Southeast chose Chart Links both because it could be customized to meet the unique needs of the
department and because of the support Chart Links offered during the building and implementation process. With Chart
Links, we will document according to national standards in a way that makes sense to both clinicians and our referral
sources. The management staff will be able to more effectively monitor trends and strategize proactively."
Chart Links software streamlines all of the daily tasks associated with a patient's physical therapy, occupational therapy,
speech language pathology, or audiology visit. The software manages adult and pediatric therapy treatment by
automating evaluations, flow sheets, plans of care, progress notes, patient education, and clinical correspondence. It also
manages payer compliance, provider reimbursement, outcomes reporting, administrative functions, business intelligence
and enterprise productivity.
