GeriPsy EHR ©

The proprietary health record documentation system of IJMCM LLC. It is designed to meet all Medicare and Medicaid requirements for “medical necessity” standards and is a professional, user-friendly system that provides clinical information that is relevant and administratively efficient.

Seamless integration

Integrates into other, facility-based electronic records.

Automatic billing

Automatically transfers billing information to insurers, eliminating the need for any separate or additional work for the clinician.

Built-in accounting

Automatically tracks payments received, with secure HIPAA compliant reporting on payments deposited into the clinician’s personal bank account.

All IJMCM LLC managed clinicians receive a login and password and use the system to document all clinical encounters.

Features

“Fail-safe” approach

GeriPsy does not allow a clinical encounter to be completed without all required information present. Reminders and alerts are built in to prompt the clinician to enter required information. Treatment plan reminders are presented regularly, with up-to-date treatment plan due dates shown upon login as well as “red alerts” when treatment plans are overdue.

Ease of access

An easy navigation system allows clinicians to access patient records by patient name or patient number. Encounters are presented for all completed (signed) notes as well as uncompleted (unsigned) notes and treatment plans, arranged by date and CPT code.

Ease of search

An efficient “search” and “filter” system allows access to notes written by patient name, facility, insurance carrier, and a variety of demographic variables.

Ease of information entry

Information is easily entered using “drop-down” and text entry fields that appear when prompted. Information is saved from session to session and automatically appears, eliminating the need to repeatedly enter known information. For group therapy, a “group note” automatically transfers all common clinical information to all patients in the group.

Confidentiality

Psychotherapy notes are protected information under the HIPAA “privacy rule”. GeriPsy saves confidential information separately and does not report it routinely unless the clinician provides an “override”. Other routine treatment information is recorded and available to relevant treatment team members. All IJMCM LLC managed clinicians have appropriate “Business Associate” agreements covering all pertinent rules and regulations for protected health information.

Administrative reports

A number of reports can be provided to facilities and treatment team members on sessions conducted and other relevant practice-related information. GeriPsy allows “view only” access to selected “reviewers” associated with the treatment team, and can limit reviewer access by facility, provider, patient or practice.

Training

All IJMCM LLC managed clinicians receive appropriate training, including practice on “mock” patients as well as online documentation and “help” in using GeriPsy.
