Part 3: Improving Home Healthcare Provider Productivity While Delivering Value
Ensuring Compliance and Driving Efficiency
As home healthcare agencies and providers look for ways to deliver top-quality care and comply with new CMS rules on written care plans, a number of options lie before them—including new mobile technologies that help clinicians give patients and families clearer plans for recovery than ever before.
Physically printing care information presents the most practical and optimal means of addressing new CMS rules, meeting patient needs, and avoiding potential errors and confusion. With that said, clinicians know that extra time spent on trips to the office printer and post office stops, plus the risk of outdated information once it gets to patients, can pose threats to productivity and patient safety.
By leveraging today’s compact, durable mobile printers, practitioners can benefit from quick, easy, and accurate printing at the point of care—helping them better serve patients while also adhering to CMS compliance standards. And with increased efficiencies from on-the-spot printing, providers can spend less time driving and doing paperwork and more time visiting, serving, and billing patients—helping ramp up productivity, enhance business value, and improve overall care.
