Question 1

What Is Practice Management Software?

Accepted Answer

Practice management software (sometimes called a clinic management system) does the hard work for you. It will help you with:

- Client record management 
- Appointment and diary management
- Reminding people about appointments
- Medical billing
- Ensuring you comply with GDPR

It helps medical practices to put everything involved with running a private practice into one secure and automated place and is the most effective practice management solution out there.

Basically, patient management software there to save you time and worry!

While a small practice might be able to get by using paper-based and manual systems, many practice owners find that they work in a much more efficient and professional way once they move to an online practice management software.

You'll also be able to run your clinic from anywhere (with internet!)

Your information is stored in the cloud, so assuming you have a desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone; you can run your clinic with confidence and ease.

Cloud-based practice management software is extremely secure and it is now the preferred software model of pretty much all major software vendors, including Microsoft 365.

Question 3

Benefits of Practice Management Software

Accepted Answer

1. With fewer tasks to complete, you'll save loads of time for yourself.

You'll save lots of time by not having to look up things online, prepare notes, write client emails and texts, etc., because everything you need is right there and automated.

If you want to use an automated system for scheduling appointments, you can create smart forms that clients fill out before they come in for treatment. Some of the more advanced practice software programs will then import the patient's data directly into their contact records.

Clients can even book their own appointments through an online booking system, cutting out phone calls and emailing.

Your client's details are stored automatically and securely so they can be accessed at any time, from any device.

2. You can reduce your no shows to almost nothing.

Automated appointment reminder systems are great because they help remind clients when their appointments come up (without having to remember themselves).

If you're using Stripe, you can also integrate payments into your online booking site so that clients pay in advance of attending their appointment.

3. You'll have the time and the resources to grow your practice.

As your software streamlines your administration for you, it gives you extra time as a health care provider to devote to your clients - if you choose to!

It frees up time so you can spend it doing things to grow your business like marketing, helping you to attract more clients and earn more revenue.

Reports give you insight into where things stand within your business, allowing you to identify any issues before they become major problems for you or your clients.

4. Simplifying your compliance with key regulations such as GDPR

GDPR can be a major source of anxiety for many medical practices.

Luckily, most major practice management systems have ways to simplify the process.

They make it easier to capture privacy consent (Article 13 of GDPR) and fulfilling access requests (Article 15 of GDPR).
