iCode/iDocs/iCharts 2.0 Debuts at AHIMA National Convention
Virginia Beach, VA -DOMA Technologies has launched the latest version of its cost-cutting, revenue-enhancing software. Newly developed upgrades to iCode, iDocs and iCharts now allow healthcare organizations to fully integrate and annotate an entire database.
DOMA Technologies’ success comes from helping hospitals, physician practices and other health care providers turn space-eating paper records into paperless digital files for easy access and retrieval. “Our customers are realizing millions of dollars in recovered revenue and savings because of the intelligent and easy to use software we have developed and the hands-on scanning and document services we provide,” says Ian Checcio, DOMA’s Vice President of Sales.
With the upgrades to iCode, iDocs and iCharts, end users now have the ability to:
Run full reports based on indexes, fields, user activity and document activity within a given date range, and display information using both raw data and graphs
Integrate a host of documents into one application
Annotate all documents accessed through the viewer, using a full compliment of tools to highlight, redact or rubberstamp
DOMA unveiled its new products at the recently concluded American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) National Convention. Irma Coonfield, INOVA Fairfax Hospital’s Director of Health Information Management, who attended the Seattle gathering, was immediately impressed with the software, asking “How soon can I get it?…I want it now!”
“We are now moving from a document and records management solution to what can best be characterized as a collaborative platform,” says Checcio. “By streamlining access and integrating information, we are able to help organizations reduce overall costs, decrease labor hours and capture lost revenue.”
It’s easy to see why Inc. Magazine recently named Doma to its list of the 500 fastest growing companies in the nation. Health systems nationwide are failing to bill for millions of dollars in services rendered or to appeal denied reimbursements because of backlogs of patient charts that had not been forwarded to medical records departments in a timely manner. Using DOMA’s secure, web-based system, companies are able to find information quickly while dramatically reducing paper use, physical storage space and labor hours associated with managing paper documents.
Sentara Home Care Services has been a DOMA customer for the last four years. "By capturing, storing and accessing records electronically through the iCharts application, Sentara Home Care staff members have been able to more timely store, access and retrieve patient documentation,” says Susan Zell, Director of Compliance and Regulatory Affairs with Sentara Home Care Services. “For this reason, Sentara has been able to increase overall staff productivity. DOMA Technologies will also do the necessary but time consuming document scanning for clients. “We give them a choice,” says Ian Checcio. “They can outsource to the DOMA staff or the customer can do his own scanning on-site.” Working with local paper recycling companies, DOMA will also manage document destruction and recycling.
“When you develop a product that improves productivity, enhances the bottom line, saves a natural resource and allows professionals to focus on their core services, that can add tremendous value to any sized organization,” says Leticia Feliciano, CEO of DOMA Technologies.
