RamSoft Launches PowerServer RIS/PACS/PM; an ICD-10 Compliant Practice Management Solution

Today, RamSoft announces the launch of PowerServer RIS/PACS/PM, a comprehensive workflow application for imaging centers in the United States requiring an all-in-one, web-based imaging workflow and practice management/billing solution that is also ICD-10 compliant. With the government mandate to switch to ICD-10 on October 1, 2014, PowerServer RIS/PACS/PM includes dual mode billing so your billing staff can still bill on ICD-9 while learning ICD-10. The practice management suite is fully integrated into PowerServer RIS/PACS and accessible from a single sign-on.

According to Marilyn Solano, PowerServer RIS/PACS/PM helps radiology groups reduce A/R turnaround time while minimizing and managing rejections and denials effectively. It will also improve claim payments in first pass; manage patient statements; manage contracts and fee schedules; and manage auto posting and write off effectively. The embedded financial reporting and dashboard tools quickly and easily generate standardized reports and allow users to create custom reports to pinpoint any specific issues with a simple search query.

"Our vision was to form an alliance with a billing system vendor that understands our industry so our customers and prospects will not have to scramble to replace obsolete billing systems before the mandatory transition to ICD-10 next year," says Marilyn Solano, director of sales and marketing for RamSoft "We are excited to bring our end users a system that allows them to prepare for ICD-10 and continue to use ICD-9 until September 30, 2014 so the transition is smooth."
