Standards of Care Compliance in Optometry: How Automated Worklists Work

Missed tests and inconsistent care standards are two of the most common gaps practices run into during exams. A provider may not remember every test or piece of patient education relevant to a specific diagnosis, especially during a busy day, and there is often no easy way to prove after…

Pain Management EHR and MACRA/MIPS Compliance: A Practical Guide

MIPS reporting is difficult for pain practices because the relevant documentation, procedure workflows, prescribing, billing, and quality reporting often live in separate systems. An EHR can support compliance, but no product guarantees it on its own. “MIPS compliant” is not a permanent designation for any technology, and requirements change by…

MACRA MIPS Compliance for Gastroenterology: What to Know

Gastroenterology’s MIPS centers on one procedure more than any other specialty on this list: colonoscopy. Colorectal cancer screening and adenoma detection rate drive a large share of gastroenterology quality reporting, and because many of these procedures happen in an ambulatory surgery center rather than the practice itself, coordination between the…

What’s the Best EHR for Ophthalmology? A Buyer’s Guide

Choosing an EHR for an ophthalmology practice is not the same as choosing one for primary care. Ophthalmology has its own workflows, imaging needs, coding requirements, and documentation standards that a generic EHR was never built to handle. The wrong EHR and practice management system can slow down exams, create…

ModMed Alternatives: What Specialty Practices Should Compare 

ModMed is a well-known name in specialties like ophthalmology, dermatology, and orthopedics. But name recognition isn’t the same as fit. Choosing an EHR isn’t really about whether a platform supports your specialty. It’s about how well that platform supports the entire practice, from clinical documentation through scheduling, billing, patient engagement, and reporting. A system that handles specialty documentation well…

MACRA MIPS Compliance for Ophthalmology: A Practice Guide

Ophthalmology practices see more patients per day than almost any other specialty. That volume is a strength for revenue and patient access, but it creates a specific problem under MACRA MIPS: how do you document enough to satisfy quality measures without slowing down an exam schedule built around speed. The…

MIPS Reporting Software: What to Look for in an EHR 

MIPS reporting has become increasingly data-driven. Practices can technically report manually or through third-party services, but most rely on their EHR to streamline quality reporting, reduce administrative burden, and protect reimbursement.  

Best Orthopedic EHR with Imaging Integration

Nearly every orthopedic visit involves imaging in some form. X-rays, MRI, CT scans, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, and in some practices bone density imaging are part of routine care, not the exception. That means providers are constantly moving between documentation and diagnostic images throughout the day, and how efficiently that happens has a…

What is MIPS? The Complete Healthcare Guide to MIPS Reporting & Compliance 

Medicare has been shifting from paying for volume toward paying for value for quite some time, and MIPS is the program that puts that shift into practice. If you bill Medicare Part B and you’re not already tracking your MIPS score, it’s affecting your reimbursement whether you’re paying attention to it or not.  This guide covers what MIPS is, who has to participate, how…

What Are the Key Benefits of Using a Multi-Specialty EHR Platform? 

Physician organizations are expanding faster than ever, through acquisitions, new service lines, and integrated care models that bring multiple specialties under one roof. That growth creates opportunity, but it also creates complexity when every department is running on different software.  A multi-specialty EHR solves that problem by bringing every specialty…
