Find a Patient - Could it get any easier?

It's something you do every single time you use the computer - Find a Patient.

It's always been easy. Type in the first few letters of the Last Name and/or First Name (or, type in the Patient Number) and the patient information opens.

Now KIP shows you a list of all patients with an appointment today. Just one single click, and the patient information appears. You don't even have to type one letter.

What could be easier?

Day Sheet - More powerful than ever

The Day Sheet is a Transaction Log. It shows you every charge, payment, and adjustment made for a specific date.


The Day Sheet should always match the amount of money deposited. This checks to make sure the data in the computer matches what you are taking to the bank, and that every payment has been recorded correctly.


The Day Sheet report is sorted by Billing Provider, Treatment Provider, and Treatment Location. So you have a breakdown of who did what, and where. It can also be limited to a specific insurance carrier - showing you how much you billed, or received, from that carrier.


But the Day Sheet was always capable of more. 


The Day Sheet can show you a range of dates (any range of dates) - showing you the total charges, payments, and adjustments for that date range - sorted by Billing Provider, Treatment Provider, and Treatment Location. So you have a breakdown of who did what, where, and when.


Day Sheet now includes the option to be limited to invoices and payments related to a specific CPT code (or range of codes). 


This report was added because some locations tax certain codes differently than others. This report allows you to see all income for certain codes (for example, V codes) apart from other income. 


So, if you want to see how much money came in from Blue Cross for all the CPT Codes between 28000 and 28999 between January 1 and February 15, 2011 at Community Hospital for Dr. Jones - it's a cinch.


Of course, you can always see today's totals, too.

Default Phone Numbers

Today, everyone seems to have two or three phone numbers - home, cell, work.  KIP allows you to select which number should be the default phone number, so that you have the greatest chance of reaching the patient.


The checkbox next to each phone number allows you to select the preferred phone number. This number will appear on the appointment book, and print when you print patient related items - such as chart labels.


No more leaving messages for appointments that might never get retrieved - and many more kept appointments.
