New Appointmentscs 9 Centralized Scheduling Software Simplifies Multi-Site Practice Management 
AppointmentsCS centralized scheduling software allows staff members at one office to schedule patients at another practice location or department. The software saves money compared to ASP programs that come with expensive monthly rates.

Tempe, AZ - May 12, 2006 -- SpectraSoft has just launched AppointmentsCS 9.0 centralized scheduling software for multi-site practices and multi-department enterprises. The medical appointment software allows staff members at one office to schedule patients at another practice location as easily as at their own site. AppointmentsCS is a money-saving, software-based alternative to ASP programs that come with expensive monthly rates.

New AppointmentsCS 9.0 offers many enhancements that cut patient wait times, improve practice teamwork, simplify reporting and reduce claim denials. An auto-notification feature alerts practitioners and other staff members on a need-to-know basis when a patient has arrived, rescheduled or canceled. There is also a Task Manager that lets you assign or receive tasks to/from other people in the organization and monitor their completion status.

An expanded patient intake window tracks multiple insurance coverages and visits remaining for each authorization. New fields for subscriber, policy number, group number and employer ensure you have critical information you need to get paid for your services.

This new version of the multi-site scheduler comes with over 90 practice management reports that can be broken down by department and/or location, including trend reporting with graphs that compare key practice metrics from one month to the next. A new Recall List feature lets you mark patients to be scheduled in the future (i.e. six-month evaluation). Improved security and updated HIPPA compliance make AppointmentsCS 9 the ideal multi-site/multi-department scheduler for any practice or hospital.
