Quickbill Module

   

The OHIP Quickbill Module is designed to allow users to create Visual Practice importable billing files for fast OHIP billing of new patients, fast OHIP billing of existing patients, either on a separate computer offline, or on the computer you have Visual Practice installed on.  The OHIP OHIP Quickbill import facility lets you get billings into your system in record time!  

The VPL file import is accompanied by a separate OHIP Quickbill program that can be installed on any computer, which can be used to quickly make Visual Practice Quick Bill List import (*.vpl) files.  

More advanced users can create their own front end applications that generate *.vpl compatible files to automate billing tasks any way they see fit.  Legacy applications that don't have OHIP billing capability can be OHIP billing enabled through this import facility!  Save tons of programming hours by using Visual Practice the perform your billings, but drive that billing from your own systems!

This module is very popular with customers with high-volume needs, such as hospital departments, clinics, facilities and especially billing services.  Quick Bill effectively enables you to offload billing to data entry staff, giving your organization maximum flexibility in scaling your OHIP billing without spending a fortune.

This module is also an excellent alternative to remote control programs - QuickBill enables you to enter patient and billing information that can then be sent to your office via email or by disk that can then be imported into your main copy of Visual Practice.  Patients and bills that are imported using this method are seamlessly integrated into your normal patient and billing data in Visual Practice!

   

Import Patient Registration Information!

QuickBill supports the import of text-based shift reports generated by Oshawa General Hospital, Ajax-Pickering Hospital, and Trillium Healthcare Centre, using the Meditech Admissions Report Module.  Download the shift report file from Meditech, and import all the patient data for any shift or floor at the hospital!  By importing the patient information, you can avoid 80% of the data entry necessary to perform hospital-shift billing!

QuickBill can import the raw output of text files that contain 2 Track Ontario health card swipes (PCR Device based reads).  This enables anyone to use a wedge-based card reader to read health cards into a program such as notepad, save the file, and then import the file into QuickBill.
