About Helper's Managed Care Functions
Managed Care tracking is vital if you want to avoid non-reimbursed
sessions. But keeping on top of the many authorizations open for
your practice at any given time is very time consuming and means
that you have less time for billable hours - less time to see
patients. Read more to find out some details on Helper's Managed
Care Tracking functions - you'll be pleasantly surprised at how
easy authorization tracking can be.

It's simple to set up clients with a new authorization. Simply
add a new authorization and use Therapist Helper to track
when clients reach authorization limits based on the following:
Dates
- Simply enter the start and end dates for the authorization
and Therapist Helper lets you know when you are nearing the
specified end date.
Sessions
- Enter the number of sessions allowed with an authorization
and Therapist Helper begins counting down, indicating when the
number of sessions re- maining nears zero.
Dollars (Capitated Contracts)
- Type in the dollar amount allowed by an authorization and
Therapist Helper will add up the amount of all attached
sessions, warning you when the dollar amount nears the authorized
limit.

The goal of Therapist Helper is to help you lessen the
amount of time spent on billing. One of the biggest issues you
have to deal with is Managed Care...more specifically, the amount
of time you spend tracking authorizations. Therapist Helper addresses
this problem by simplifying patient authorizations and allowing
you to view expiring authorizations. If you deal with Managed
Care Authorizations, then you need Therapist Helper.
