Better decision making. The information about a child’s development is only a click away: completed milestones, screening results, parents concerns.
-
Data-driven discussions & intervention. Once data is reviewed, you can go into the visit with the plan. Accurate, up-to-date, and thorough information naturally leads to a higher quality of care, from better diagnoses to reduced errors.
Increase productivity and efficiency
-
Immediate practice integration. Simple implementation and effortless integration into your medical routine. All you need to do is to register and add your patients.
-
Increased productivity & efficiency. Time savings with well-organized information will help your practice see more patients, generate more revenue, reduce miscommunication with parents and paperwork.
View your entire population at a glance. So you can prioritize your outreach on patients who have high level readings.
Increase revenue
-
Referrals. An efficient practice not only saves time and money but can also bring in more referrals.
- Reduce wait times and the overall time patients spend in your office. Shorter office visits also reduce patients’ exposure to illnesses carried by other patients.
- Show parents you have their children's best interests in mind.
- Help lower potential health care costs. Intervention is more effective and less costly when developmental delays are identified earlier in life rather than later.
-
Increase in billing. Bill for the SWYC/MCHAT screenings assessments.
