Solving Independent ASC Challenges
Multiple Cases Per Day
Impact: 8-12 procedures = 2-3 hours documentation if done later
Solution: Complete operative notes in 5-10 minutes immediately post-procedure. No evening catch-up.
Substantial reduction in documentation time
Cash Flow and Payment Cycle
Impact: Delayed operative notes = delayed claim submission = slower revenue cycle
Solution: Same-day operative notes enable same-day claim submission. Improved cash flow for independent ASCs.
Faster payment cycle from day-of documentation
ASC Quality Reporting
Impact: Manual Medicare ASC quality measure tracking = administrative burden
Solution: Automatic capture of ASC quality measures during documentation. Compliance without extra work.
Medicare ASC-13, ASC-14, ASC-15 measures captured
Turnover Time and Capacity Revenue
Impact: Documentation delays = longer turnover = fewer cases = lost capacity revenue
Solution: Immediate documentation between cases. Faster turnover enables 1-2 additional procedures daily.
