Product Description:

HealthNautica’s eORders™, software is a comprehensive, easy-to-use, cloud solution for managing the entire perioperative process and surgical scheduling without changing your scheduling system. It begins with the physician’s office filling out an online surgery scheduling or procedure request.

Gone are the days of illegible, incomplete, inaccurate faxes sent back and forth between the physician’s office and the facility’s scheduling department. The cumbersome and error prone faxing process is replaced by an electronic form that is configured to each facility’s exact specifications and reacts to the user’s input thereby assisting the physician’s office in getting it right the first time.

All orders are legible, complete, screened for CMS Medical Necessity, incorporate SCIP, VTE, SSI and ACS NSQIP measures, verified for insurance eligibility, pre-certified and satisfy edits by CMS, commercial payers and the facility. Our solution ensures efficient surgery center scheduling and block time management while streamlining processes such as prior authorization.
