Time Saved on Documentation

I would think we save at least �ve to ten minutes per patient. So if we save �ve minutes per patient, multiplied by 700 visits each week, divided by 60 minutes per 11 therapists, it saves each therapist over an hour a day.

Time and Cost Savings for McGovern

Increased in Front Of�ce Productivity

We have a better handle on visit authorizations and the ability to fax information straight from WebPT is valuable. It also stores all documentation onto the database eliminating a paper trail or hard chart.

Payment Cycle/Claims Improvements

Our ability to get documentation out the door to insurance companies has sped up for improved cash �ow.

Coding for Insurance Claims The bells and whistles of the built in Medicare compliance benchmarks in WebPT has made a complicated process of billing Medicare, very simple.

Bene�tsSince joining WebPT, Kevin noticed an increase in ef�ciency as his PTs were now able to spend less time on documentation and more time with their patients. The clinic’s ability to complete documentation and send off to insurance companies had also sped up substantially.

The front of�ce also saw improvements in handling visit authorizations as well as using the faxing and emailing features allowing them to send faxes right from WebPT’s online interface.

WebPT saves eachtherapist over an hourper day!
