Service Offerings:
Allscripts clinical and business solutions provide information to improve the delivery of patient care. CHS offers a comprehensive set of solutions for maximizing the Allscripts solution.
Core Vendor Strategy & Selection
CHS consultants utilize CHS-developed tools and methodologies to assist clients with selecting the best technology strategies and vendors to meet the unique needs of their organization. Our experience includes conducting risk assessments, integration analysis, vendor selection, capital budgeting and return-on-investment analysis.
v11 Upgrade Management
A system upgrade presents the ideal opportunity to evaluate workflows to ensure the new functionality is fully leveraged to streamline practice and clinical operations. CHS can serve key roles on a client's upgrade team, including project management, workflow gap analysis, application design/build, integration testing, end-user training and go-live support.
Revenue Cycle Enhancement
Management of the revenue cycle is essential to increase the first-time acceptance of claims by reviewing and benchmarking performance metrics, analyzing denial patterns and identifying training needs for staff.
The CHS Revenue Cycle Assessment methodology includes a comprehensive review of organizational
infrastructure, workflows and practice management system setup to determine their effectiveness in
supporting revenue cycle best practices and recommendations for improvement. CHS consultants
analyze current organizational performance against industry benchmarks (MGMA, UHC, CHS'
collective experience) and implement new revenue cycle performance metrics (CHS Key Performance
Indicators) which our clients use to more effectively manage revenue cycle performance. Lastly, CHS
identifies areas for revenue cycle improvement, including increasing charges and collections and decreasing expenses.
PM Conversion Management
Converting to a new practice management (PM) system presents several opportunities for improving patient access and revenue cycle operations. However, this type of a conversion also presents risks, including disrupted cash flow. CHS consultants combine in-depth Allscripts Enterprise PM application knowledge with strong large group practice revenue cycle experience.
Enterprise EHR Implementation Planning
CHS-developed readiness assessments identify both risk factors and opportunities for success which provide critical insight into the implementation planning process. CHS works collaboratively with clients to develop implementation strategies, project and resource plans that meet the clinical, revenue cycle and operational needs of their particular organization.
Interim Management
Organizational changes frequently result in temporary gaps in leadership. Working with a CHS consultant during a transition period fills that leadership gap and ensures the continuity of your mission critical operations and projects. CHS provides temporary executive, practice management and IT leadership to manage operations, revenue cycle, and IT functions, to assist in the recruitment of the full time candidate and to provide sufficient knowledge transfer to ensure a successful transition for the full time manager.
Implementation & Optimization Services
CHS consultants include MDs, RNs and billing managers, integration specialists and application experts who have deep expertise with the lifecycle implementation of Allscripts. This expertise includes workflow analysis and redesign, application design/build, testing, training staff and assisting through the go-live process. CHS works with clients to develop consistent reviews of performance and validation of system performance post go-live.
Integration & Technical Services
CHS consultants use report writing to extract meaningful data that explains the status of your healthcare organization. In addition to providing reports, consultants can develop interfaces including data conversion interfaces and write changes to programming code.
