How many people think they need an EMR in order to start billing?
Many people out there think they MUST have an electronic medical record solution in place before they can start billing? Do you agree? Why?
Re: How many people think they need an EMR in order to start billing?
I think that is a sweeping statement.
On one hand I think Yes-in this day and age of data it would seem difficult not to have such a system.
But to say must might be a bit deep.
Having said this-I cannot imagine my agency without such a system in place for billing.
