Salt Lake City, Utah (PRWEB) March 7, 2007

AdvancedMD, the leading provider of Web-based practice management solutions for medical offices and third-party medical billing services, released AdvancedMD version 5.5 today. New enhancements provide greater efficiencies for practice management that will save healthcare providers time and money. Current customers will receive full upgrade benefits at no additional cost.

"This much anticipated release reinforces AdvancedMD's position as the #1 Web-based (http://www. advancedmd. com/why_web_native. asp) medical office solution," said Jim Pack, President & CEO of AdvancedMD Software. "Version 5.5 includes substantial upgrades and new features to AdvancedMD that our customers will find invaluable."

"The patient billing module saves me a lot of time," said Julie Yanazzo, office manager for Carol J. Thrun MD. "Bringing automated patient statements, collection letters and agency functions together as a one-step process has really sped up my billing. Besides that, I can also preview electronic patient statements and letters before they leave the system and veto them if necessary before they are submitted."

Along with the patient billing module, version 5.5 includes a new office dashboard, complete with key performance indicators that allow physicians and office managers to view office statistics daily. Other features include improved UB92 billing, an appointment wait list, the ability to have Medicare (http://www. advancedmd. com/10x/medicare-billing-software. asp) fee schedules updated automatically and new debit adjustment functionality.

"The debit adjustment enhancement has eliminated several steps in my workflow," said Ginger Rohde, Office Manager at Asthma & Lung Specialists in Dallas, TX. "I can now better handle refunds, returned check fees, per diem payments and keep my accounting as accurate as possible."

Version 5.5 provides new advantages to physician offices as well as medical billing (http://www. advancedmd. com/10x/medical-billing-software. asp) services. Billing services can benefit from the new CBO Manager that saves offices hours of time by running end of day processes on multiple office keys in one easy step, instead of having to close each office key individually. The system even continues to work through the end of day processes after logging out.
