Medical Documentation

Proper medical documentation is important. For physicians and clinicians, it is of course a vital record of your patient interactions and guides any treatment plans and future care decisions. But medical documentation can help other related disciplines as well.

For insurance companies, accurate documentation of medical cases will help create detailed, comprehensive reports.

For law firms, the documentation you provide in court or other legal proceedings could be a key piece of evidence in your case, so accuracy is key.

iMedat’s medical transcription services provide a number of benefits, no matter what discipline you are in:

Medical Transcription Solutions Adaptable to You

Medical Documentation for Physicians and Clinicians

Good medical documentation is crucial for physicians and clinicians. However, and perhaps counterintuitive in this Information Age, it is getting harder to manage that documentation. The advent of the electronic medical record (EMR) helps improve patient care in many ways. But, like all tools, it has to be used properly. Through no fault of their own, this is where many physicians and clinicians get tripped up.

First and foremost, doctors and practitioners are not trained data processors. Besides, they prefer personalized notes for obvious reasons. This is known as unstructured data. Yet EMRs tend to work more efficiently when that information is captured through structured data. Forcing health care professionals to adapt to ways that are not natural to them though will only disrupt patient care, not enhance it.

This reality leads us to another point: time. EMRs were meant to be great timesavers. But what actually happened is that the time needed to document encounters fell onto clinicians instead. Many primary care providers in particular report that they spend less time with their patients as they try to navigate their EMR systems or spend more time at night catching up on patient records. Either way, it leads to greater rates of physician burnout, reduced patient care, and perhaps lower billables. (Again, clinicians are not trained data processors…) Is this how clinicians should be spending their time, updating records instead of seeing patients?

iMedat solves all of these problems. Our medical documentation services provide the clerical support physicians and clinicians need to be more productive and feel more fulfilled in their work lives. We provide:

• Fast, accurate transcription from physicians’ and clinicians’ dictated notes
• Better capturing of information through use of structured and unstructured data fields
• Flexible options that conform to each clinician’s preferences
• Overall improved medical documentation, patient care, billables, productivity, and work/life balance

Medical Documentation for Insurance Companies

Speed and accuracy in transcription services are no less important for insurance companies. That is why when you are looking for medical documentation services, it pays to work with medical professionals.

iMedat’s transcriptionists are trained, professional medical transcriptionists. What that means for you is that you will receive fast, accurate transcripts with fewer errors and blanks. Not only do our transcriptionists routinely work with a wide variety of specialities, but they have the support of our Quality Assurance Managers. So, if there’s ever a question, they can reach out at any time rather than leave a blank for you to fill in later. iMedat is an important timesaver for you in that respect.

Our transcriptionists are also familiar with insurance transcription as well as legal transcription. That is important for cases that may be subject to legal proceedings. Of course, that’s when it’s most vital to have airtight medical documentation.

iMedat’s team of medical documentation specialists has the medical, insurance, and legal expertise to get it right for you the first time.

Medical Documentation for Law Firms

By their very nature, attorneys and law firms put a strong emphasis on the accuracy of their text. When the quality and detail of your notes are under scrutiny, you want to make sure they are above reproach. In some cases, the quality of your documentation can be the difference between going to trial or getting dismissed. iMedat’s medical documentation for law firms ensures your files and documents are as complete and accurate as possible.

iMedat’s medical transcriptionists are also experienced in other areas of transcription including legal transcription. That’s important because it means they know what’s needed for both disciplines. It’s also important in terms of accuracy: you’ll have fewer errors and blanks for both your medical terms and your legal terms. More complete documents also means less work for you and your office staff on the backend.
