The TouchWorks Charge module offers an automated alternative to the traditionally cumbersome manual capture of charges for both inpatient and ambulatory services. With Charge, physicians can efficiently capture charges for all services at the point of care. Integration with practice management systems facilitates invoice and claims processing. And the Charge module can run on a handheld device connected to a wireless radio frequency network, so information is updated in real time.

The Charge advantage

• No more lost charges
  By automating the paper encounter form, charges are recorded and submitted promptly.
• Less rework and lower denial rates
  Posting to payment time is decreased from weeks to hours and lost charges are nearly eliminated.
• Accelerated billing and reimbursement
  All charge information is updated prior to the patient’s departure, making this the only system that that lets you accurately capture the patient copy at the time of departure.
• Improved regulatory compliance
  Charge has built in Evaluation & Management (E/M) coding assistance, medical necessity checking, and subsequent Advance Beneficiary Notification (ABN) collection.
