Hospice Software
The intelligent way to manage your hospice care business.
Only Misys Homecare gives you and your organization all these powerful advantages:
A single integrated home care software system
Business, clinical, and scheduling functionality for multiple lines of business — hospice, home health, and private duty — are combined seamlessly in one integrated home care software package. Numerous processes are automated and made simpler. And, there's no need to buy a second home care system if you operate two or more lines of business or decide to expand later.
Business Unit Flexibility
The system provides segmentation for your various lines of business, with consolidated roll-up reporting at the corporate level.
Extraordinary ease of use
Your staff works with a familiar, user-friendly Windows interface. Screen layouts within the Misys hospice home care system can be customized for maximum ease of use by staff. Context sensitive online help can be run side-by-side with application windows, enabling users to quickly master any procedure. Built-in tutorials provide comprehensive training for navigation, hospice billing, and other important functions.
Organizes hospice patient records
Misys Homecare's time-saving features help your staff spend more time on patient care, less on administration. Hospice clinicians can easily compare assessment data from previous visits while documenting current visit data. The system enables you to view the patient's history for any item in a particular field, eliminating the need to read through irrelevant information. With a mouse click, the system can mark normal responses to routine physical assessments, enabling staff to focus on problem clinical areas requiring their expertise.
Customizable reporting with quick queries
Misys Homecare makes it a snap to generate standard and customized reports. Query templates for customized reports can be saved and used over and over again. Standard report filters enable users to drill down on-screen to retrieve data at any level. All data entries are date and time-stamped, making them easy to audit and track. A Query Wizard enables users to get fast answers to specific patient care and claims questions.
Speeds claims reimbursement
Misys Homecare handles both electronic and paper claims for Medicare, Medicaid, commercial payers, other third-party payers, and self-pay patients. You can customize billing frequency and cycles with a few keystrokes. Billing cycles are automatically generated.
Enhances patient care and management
Powerful database and graphic tools enable you to create custom hospice care plans to increase efficiency while maximizing quality of care. You can even customize care plans at the agency level to ensure compliance with documentation requirements.
Gives field personnel access to clinical data at the point of care
Clinicians in the field can instantly access care plans, patient demographics, medications, and other clinical information to improve quality of care. Assessments made on laptops at the point of care can be remotely synchronized to your main system in minutes. Turnaround time for orders and billing is faster.
A powerful scheduling and resource management tool
The hospice software system greatly speeds and simplifies scheduling of tasks, resources, clinicians, and other personnel — for both patient care and in-services — based on availability, qualifications, and skills. Misys Homecare controls utilization by automatically alerting you to any scheduling conflict and provides an online tool for its quick resolution. Scheduling without orders also generates an on-screen warning.
Meets new and emerging standards
Our home care software is continually updated to support industry requirements including Medicare, Medicaid, HIPAA transaction standards, ICD-9-CM code sets, CPT codes, entry of standard HCPCS codes, and requirements for password protected electronic signatures.
