American Business Systems specializes in web-based medical billing software. With the ABS Business Package, medical practices can quickly and easily establish a medical billing franchise and start earning profit. Here, they discuss the benefits of using web-based software over the traditional PC-based model of patient billing.
Web-Based vs. PC-Based Software
With personal computer-based medical billing software, the billing office installs the software directly onto a physical computer. To access the software, the employee must have that specific computer.
However, web-based billing doesn't require computer installation. Instead, it uses an online portal, so an employee with the access information can log in from any computer.
Both systems can handle paper and electronic healthcare claims
Benefits of Web-Based Billing Software
Web-based medical billing software offers several benefits over traditional PC-based software.
Low Capacity
Employees who have a computer with low storage or processing capabilities likely can't install software with many requirements. For example, a Chromebook doesn't have the hard drive space for a billing program.
With cloud-based billing, companies or employees don't have to purchase new computers. This means the company saves money and can start finding clients immediately rather than waiting to set up new computers.
Decreased Overhead
With traditional PC-based claims processing, a company must pay a separate fee for each user or computer that uses the software. These costs quickly add up and make it difficult to scale a business.
With web-based solutions, the company signs a single contract that covers access and use by all employees. For example, with the ABS business package, the company pays a one-time fee for permanent access. It costs more upfront but provides significant long-term savings over paying for every user and renewing licensing.
Collaboration
Since any registered user can access the online portal, employees can more easily collaborate. This increases the quality of medical practices. If employees have questions or need help, another person can easily log in and double-check the work instead of carrying their computer across the office.
Work Flexibility
With web-based billing, employees can work anywhere. If they have a sick child, they can work from home without spending a sick day. They can also log in on the weekends to catch up if they're behind.
The ABS Business Package
The ABS business package includes web-based medical billing software and marketing tools. It also has live one-on-one training and free lifetime support. With one investment, healthcare practices can start earning profit from medical billing in just two hours per day.
