What makes your company’s EHR and HITECH products stand out?: Intellicure is a CMS “registry” which transmits physician quality reporting data so doctors can get PQRS bonus money, a HITEC requirement. We provide “Decision Support,” including our “LCD checker,” features which ensure that the patient meets local coverage determination requirements for procedures such as bioengineered skin. Our Automated Billing Features internally and automatically calculate the facility and the physician level of service, a HITECH requirement. Intellicure designed and validated the acuity scoring system for facility billing. We provide HIPAA compliant photo management using Wi-Fi photo technology as well as e-Prescribing and physician computerized order entry, with almost no typing.

Advice for clinicians: Physicians, managers and programmers who actually run wound centers designed Intellicure. Every feature was created to meet the practical needs of running a wound/ hyperbaric center. We operate at the intersection of reimbursement policy and patient care. Our products are created to ensure regulatory compliance with HITEC and CMS. Although our products are very user friendly with almost no typing and can interface with all hospital EHRs, we advise our customers to be prepared to make changes in their current habits if their practices are not in alignment with current regulations. We offer business services and compliance assistance.

Products and services: Web-based Electronic Medical Record software application for wound management.

What makes your company’s EHR and HITECH products stand out?: WoundExpert is the first, and at this time only, wound care-focused Complete EHR certified by the ONC-ATCB, meeting the criteria to demonstrate Meaningful Use. Our integrated clinical, financial, and administrative tools can improve coordination of care and reimbursement, while our new Patient Portal offers patients an opportunity to more fully participate in their treatment. While certification is a big deal, it’s the strength of the WoundExpert platform and size of our team that will make the difference in demonstrating Meaningful Use. We are committed to helping our clients achieve this through education and training, ongoing development, and continual upgrades based on regulatory updates.

Advice for Clinicians: A great software system can really enhance a clinic’s ability to attract referrals, coordinate care, improve reimbursement, and create an integrated solution that ultimately improves patient care. It’s worth spending the time to talk with one of our professionals to discuss the unique needs of your facility and view an online or onsite demonstration of how WoundExpert meets those needs. We encourage people to speak with our clients and visit a neighboring clinic that uses WoundExpert to the fullest. Today there are more than 15,000 licensed physicians, clinicians, and administrative users in 800 wound clinics that rely on our systems each day.
