Why Your Ophthalmology Practice Needs Electronic Medical Office Software

The Top 4 Benefits of Ophthalmology Medical Office Software

1. Increased Efficiency

Above all else, an electronic medical office solution with the latest features, tools, and capabilities can streamline slow and inefficient workflows across your practice.

For example, managing your staff's schedule and timecards is one of the most fundamental aspects of running your business. With medical office software, you’ll bring this entire process into one convenient digital module that simplifies managing staff.

Efficiency benefits can extend to patient communications as well. According to one experienced doctor, the average medical office has over 50 phone calls per day! In a busy practice like yours, many team members will spend over an hour on the phone.

Using an integrated phone system with click-to-call functionality, downloadable voicemails, and instant call logs—like EMO’s IMS Caller—can save precious time on each call, adding significant time-savings throughout a workday.

2. Enhanced Patient & Practice Security

To keep your office in order, a great electronic medical office solution can maintain an electronic visitor log that records routine check-ins and non-patient guests in real time. That way, you’ll always know who has visited your office, when they visited, and why.

Ophthalmology offices can also save business and practice files through EMO. Besides placing access restrictions for enhanced data safety, administrators will increase security by storing and retrieving files electronically instead of storing physical documents that can be lost, damaged, or stolen.

3. Convenient Checklists & Reminders

In the fast-paced environment of ophthalmology, it’s easy to let tasks slip through the cracks.

By setting notifications and reminders with an electronic medical office software solution, you’ll keep your team on the ball throughout the day and ensure they handle responsibilities with greater punctuality.

Your team can also create easy-to-use checklists that keep all your tasks together in one location and let team members know what everyone is working on. This can dramatically impact team cohesion and save time on coordinating schedules. 

These capabilities also expand to non-patient tasks, like maintenance and staff meetings, which help your office stay organized on the back end.

4. Reduced Costs & Revenue Growth

When investing in healthcare IT software, your practice expects to see a return on your investment.

Fortunately, EMO’s practice-growing features help produce healthy, financially successful practices. By spending less time on mundane routine tasks and offering superior service, your practice will quickly see a positive impact on your bottom line after making the upgrade.   

Likewise, your ophthalmology practice is only as big as your patient base. With EMO’s lead generation tools, your team can revamp your marketing strategy to attract more clients. More clients mean more appointments, and more appointments mean more income. 

Once you’ve attracted new clients, you’ll have to work hard to keep them in your network by offering the best ophthalmology experience possible. To keep patients coming back for years to come, consider an electronic medical office solution with advanced waiting room capabilities, which display media to keep patients entertained, waitlists to keep them informed, and ads to generate additional passive income.
