Rheumatology practice has become more complicated in recent times. In addition to new strategies for the diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of common arthritic, rheumatic and autoimmune diseases, rheumatologists have to deal with reimbursement issues, staffing, new administrative implementation, and regulatory compliance. Managing their documentation in the midst of all this can be certainly problematic. That’s where rheumatology transcription service is useful, helping to save time as well as money.
Rheumatology treatment addresses musculo-skeletal issues, arthritis, autoimmune conditions, orthopedic disorders, gout, osteoarthritis, lupus, tendonitis and bursitis so on. To ensure timely treatment and adhere to documentation regulations, physicians have to get clear and accurate transcripts of their dictation pertaining to:
- Procedure notes
- Chart notes and narratives
- General correspondence
- Independent medical evaluations
- Discharge summaries
- Consultations
- Progress reports
- History & physicals
It is well-known that TAT (turnaround time) can impact the operational efficiency of a healthcare practice as well as enhance data capture and documentation, allowing physicians to improve clinical decision making and provide better patient care. A professional rheumatology transcription service provider can ensure documentation of these audio files with accuracy levels as high as 99% in customized TAT, including STAT.
