Lytec 2017 is an effective practice management system designed to fit the needs of practices in an evolving health care market. Designed specifically for small, independent practices, Lytec 2017 provides streamlined scheduling, billing functionality and complete revenue management capabilities to ensure optimal performance for practices.

Benefits

Lytec 2017 allows for small, independent medical offices to achieve ICD-10 Compliance through an expedient and reliable scheduling and billing functionality. Practices should not endure disadvantages because of their small statures. An optimal electronic health record (EHR) ensures that medical offices can realize the numerous benefits of a condensed practice without having to invest in a large IT team.

Why Now?

The deadline for ICD-10 Compliance (October 1, 2015) is approaching and medical practices look forward to long-term benefits of compliance. Systems that effectively comply with ICD-10’s standards avoid the disadvantages of non-compliance and realize long-term benefits, such as improvements in boosting PQRS reporting, disease management and research data.

The quality of a medical practice’s EHR matters, especially in light of the changing healthcare market. Lytec 2017 delivers the functionality that medical practices need to stay organized and enjoy the benefits of ICD-10 Compliance.

Features

Here are some of Lytec 2017’s key features:

  • ICD-10 Ready – With a dual diagnosis list, Lytec 2017 allows for search optimization of ICD-9 or ICD-10 codes. Some ICD-9 codes need to be translated to ICD-10, so Lytec is equipped with a unique mapping tool to perform the code-conversion. Also, Lytec 2017 includes a customized carrier setting that allows physicians and staff to identify and specify which code the carrier uses.
  • Scheduling and Billing – Mobile Patient Intake allows medical groups to save time on administration by having patients enter their own information and edit already-existing information in Lytec on iPad® and AndroidTM devices. The patient’s information will flow directly into Lytec for validation from the practice’s administration. By eliminating the need to copy information from intake forms to software, Lytec increases efficiency and availability of administration personnel for other tasks. It also expedites the patient’s waiting time, allowing for more doctor-patient time.
    • Other scheduling and billing features include Lytec Mobile for iPhone® or iPad which allows mobile access of providers’ schedules. The customizable grids allow providers to efficiently address different carrier filing requirements. Overall, these features help expedite the scheduling and execution of patient appointments.
  • Revenue Management – Lytec 2017 allows practices to verify and check patient eligibility before a service is performed. Pre-claim editing also allows the opportunity to review filings for errors on the front-end before submission for payment. A biller has the ability to efficiently review payment information, flag changes and post individual payments and adjustments.
