Clinical Capabilities

Misys Homecare watches over your patients as carefully as you do.

With Misys Homecare, vital medical records are always at your fingertips.

 

Patient status…including referral, admission, transfer, and discharge dates; primary diagnosis; HHRG; and level of care…can be viewed from a single screen using multiple tabs — one for each admission. Historical payer information is also viewable on screen, along with an audit trail detailing changes to the information.

 

A customizable assignment screen shows all resources assigned to the patient including staff, contractors, community resources, DME suppliers, and more. You see all caregivers at a glance, so you can ensure that information is passed to the right people…and that additional personnel are kept to a minimum. This "caregivers-at-a-glance" functionality is also available in scheduling to help schedulers maintain continuity of care.

 

Agency-defined patient statistics enable you to collect and report on information that is important to your organization.

 

Guides you through the assessment process.

Misys Homecare provides a color-coded road map to guide the clinician through completion of the patient assessment. The clinician sees what information they have completed and what mandatory fields must be completed.

  

OASIS

OASIS data can be entered in the office or at the point of care as part of the integrated patient assessment. The structure of the assessment process ensures full OASIS compliance.

 

Assessments entered at the point of care help speed turnaround of orders and billing. Once an OASIS assessment is made, a RAP (Request for Anticipated Payment) is generated automatically if appropriate.

 

The system is easy to follow. Your surveyors will have no trouble finding what they need to document that you are meeting agency and regulatory standards.

  

OASIS assessment data is automatically validated as entered. When the assessment is finished, the resulting HHRG score can be displayed on the screen.

 

A progress indicator in the corner of the assessment screen tells the clinician what percent of the assessment is complete. Based on the initial assessment, the clinician can customize a patient specific assessment for future visits.

 

Speeds and automates POT creation.

Misys Homecare comes with a library of more than 50 interdisciplinary, problem-related care plans.

 

You can add additional care plans at any time, or use our problem-related care plans "as is." Or, customize them to your standard of practice, or what your physicians and payers are expecting to see. Clinicians can further customize care plans for individual patients by adding, deleting, or modifying goals and interventions.

 

Goals and interventions are automatically included on the plan of care (POC) according to agency criteria. Supplemental orders are automatically generated when there is a change in medications, projected visits, or treatments.

 

Keeps patient care on track.

All care plans are synchronized with orders and schedules to ensure quality care and optimum use of resources.

 

At the click of a mouse, the clinician can view the entire care plan for all resources involved, coordinating the limited visits desired under PPS. You can easily eliminate conflicts and overlaps that cost time and money but deliver no added benefits to the patient.

 

Charting history lets you see how the care plan was addressed on each visit. Variance codes show why a particular intervention or goal could not be accomplished.

  

Visit Note automatically generates a document summarizing the patient's demographic information, visit details (time in, time out), vital signs for the visit, a summary of system assessments completed, care plan accomplishments, medications, and the narrative note.

 

Puts your orders in order.

At a glance you can review orders for each patient. Orders, authorizations, and scheduling are integrated to ensure consistency between authorizations or projected visits and what is scheduled.

 

Orders can be viewed and printed in industry standard 485 or generic order format. All orders can be reviewed on screen.

 

When documentation collected at the point of care is synchronized with the office, all corresponding orders are printed automatically — eliminating the need for office staff to request them from field personnel. Orders are tracked in the system as soon as they are printed. Bills can be automatically suspended until signed orders are available.

 

Supervisors can call up any patient on screen and review the patient's data. No more requesting paper records or searching for documentation to figure out what happened and why.

 

Complete clinical records at your fingertips.

Misys Homecare gives you a centralized data repository for multidisciplinary patient records. Whether in the office or in the field, clinicians have instant access to patient information, medication teaching information, and clinical documentation.

 

Each assessment includes front and back views of the body. The clinician can graphically document wounds, pain, incisions, etc. to provide a more complete picture of the patient's abnormalities.

 

A comprehensive charting history shows the name and discipline of the person who performed a particular visit, what was addressed at each visit, and how the patient is progressing. Clinicians are alerted if a patient assessment is incomplete.
