The most important scope enhancement of billing systems in the recent years is the addition of integrated electronic medical records (EMR) solutions, which is the heart of the medical practice IT value chain. The comprehensive nature of EMR consolidates patient's personal and administrative information, health history, prescriptions, treatments, and conditions. Its ability to perform such data aggregation at the point of care elevates its benefit from plain recording of patient encounter to useful decision support system. Such immediate data aggregation is only possible with timely input of compliant medical notes. Powerful Vericle-like technologies facilitate combined transcription with rapidly customizable point-and-click templates, optimizing physician's interface to EMR, providing added degree of regulatory compliance, and reducing post-payment audit risk.
