Best Coding & Documentation Products

According to a survey on attitudes towards EHRs, over ⅓ of physicians say documentation tasks are those they’d most prefer not to do.

Clinicians are spending a disproportionate amount of time working within electronic health records or performing clerical work. On average, physicians spend 27% of work hours interacting with patients and 50% of their work day on EHR documentation and clerical work. Incomplete documentation may lead to inaccurate code assignments, resulting in underpayments for episodes of care. Health systems are therefore met with the challenge of keeping clinicians from becoming disconnected and fatigued due to administrative tasks while also addressing the need for accurate clinical documentation.
