Growing Your Physical Therapy Practice with an EMR

A physical therapy practice pulls its director in all kinds of different directions. You need to provide excellent care, manage HR, market your services, schedule patients, and document and submit billing. When you finally get the chance to take a step back and analyze what’s happening at your clinic, does your EMR help with these tasks, or create unnecessary problems? 

Let’s take a look at some common growth challenges, and how your physical therapy EMR should be solving for them.

Balancing therapist productivity

Your clinicians need to treat patients to generate revenue. They also need to properly document their time in order to generate revenue. And while documentation and billing codes are no therapist’s favorite activity, they need to be done accurately for payers to approve submitted claims. 

How well does your current physical therapy EMR system help manage this balance? Can you generate reports and navigate to items in the software efficiently? AgileEMR has ready-to-use and customizable templates for fast documentation. Moreover, everything in the system is one click away from everything else. 

Simplifying everyday activities

Complicated EMR systems can lead to time wasted on otherwise simple processes. Scheduling should be simple, fast, and clear to both patient and clinician. AgileEMR’s scheduling feature is easy to use, color-coded, and quick to navigate. It is integrated with clinical documentation to ensure a seamless workflow. 

Access to customer support

An accessible customer support team can make all the difference between simply using the physical therapy EMR to increasing efficiencies and driving more revenue. Is your current customer support team committed to your success? Are they consistently reachable? AgileEMR has a committed customer support team available via phone, chat and email for nearly-constant support. 

Handling change with ease

One of the only constants in the physical therapy industry is change. Weathering cuts to Medicare, regulation changes, and even the pandemic. Your EMR needs to be agile enough to roll with the punches. 

AgileEMR was developed based on feedback from clinicians across the country. It’s been used in over 1 million patient cases in both outpatient therapy and hospital rehabilitation sectors. It remains extremely user-friendly, customizable, and agile; great characteristics in order to adapt to the clinician landscape.
