PCC 10.5 Release Overview

Get essential information during scheduling and stay informed about what your patients need. You can now require users to include an Appointment Note when self scheduling.

Ensure that patients see their own provider. Each portal scheduling category includes a new option to require a patient to be scheduled only for their assigned PCP.

Patient portal Scheduling Configuration gets a new, streamlined, look, so you can review and manage self-scheduling efficiently.

Record parents’ heights and calculate mid-parental height in the 2 to 5 and 2 to 20 year growth charts.

Need to upload a document while logged in remotely via SecureConnect? Simply drag your file over the SecureConnect window, then locate and manage the document as usual in Import Documents.

Stay updated on the status of every visit at your practice from your phone. PocketPCC now displays the status of each visit on the schedule page.

Jump from one sibling to another with a single tap. The siblings component in pocketPCC now includes a link to each sibling’s chart.

Use your Authy soft token to approve controlled substance prescriptions prepared in pocketPCC.

Regardless of where in the chart you are reviewing your patient’s medications and medication allergies, when you click “Mark as Reviewed,” you can see evidence of that action everywhere medication history and medication allergies display.

Got a special situation with a payor? Create your own custom rule that will prevent autoposting (based on payor and adjustment type) so you can process them on a manual worklist instead.

As you work on your practice’s insurance A/R, you can mark encounters with a status, such as “Waiting on Payor” or “Under Review”. Then you can track, organize, and filter your A/R by that status.

Do you need to make sure you followup on an encounter? You can assign it to yourself or another biller at your practice.

As you work on a rejection message or any unpaid encounter, you can update the encounter’s billing notes without leaving your worklist.

Do you need to pend an encounter back to the family’s primary, or switch all the charges to personal? Now you can adjust the responsible party for all procedures with two clicks.

As needed, send only part of an encounter to a specific payor. Pick exactly which procedures from an encounter should appear on the claim.

Sometimes, you still need a HCFA! In those rare cases when you need a paper claim, print one with the click of a button.

Oops! You posted an insurance takeback to the wrong account. PCC 10.5 makes it easy to quickly delete refunds, write-offs, and reversals.

Instead of opening the payor’s website or calling them, see their latest claim status right in PCC EHR. This feature is in a pilot test for PCC 10.5, and will be made available to all practices soon.

When you need to collect data for your PCMH certification or other external clinical quality measures, use three new CQM reports in the Report Library to find the information you need.

How can you tell if you’re making the most of your scheduling resources? The improved Provider Schedule Utilization report gives you data on appointment distribution across your schedules, providers, and locations over time.

Maintain your practice’s Vaccines for Children (VFC) enrollment with the new VFC Patient Population report in the Report Library. Annual VFC reporting is faster and easier when you use this report to determine the eligibility status of various age groups within your patient population.

Export large data sets from the Report Library with one click. Use the “Export Results” button to save a CSV with over 20,000 rows right to your workstation’s Downloads folder.

Download a report while working remotely via SecureConnect by clicking any “Export” button in the Report Library. Retrieve the exported file from the Downloads folder on your local workstation.

Find the users you’re looking for without the clutter of inactive users getting in the way. In PCC EHR’s User Administration tool, inactive users are hidden by default.
