Roster Module
FHG and FHN
Roster Management
 Module Summary
Visual Practice makes FHG and FHN management a breeze!
The
Roster Module enables the Patient Registration Module to add and remove
patients from a physician based list patients participating in a Family
Health Group and/or Family Health Network. An unlimited number of
patients can be associated with the billing physician's FHG or FHN.
Multiple lists can be maintained concurrently within the same system. Import your
Ministry of Health Virtual Roster Report -
This Visual Practice-only feature enables you to read and import the
text file version of the FHG Virtual Roster Report that the Ministry of
Health sends to you annually. This process automatically marks the
patients in your database as FHG-V patients, making identification of
FHG-V patients fast and easy!
Export your
Patient files in FHG Fulfillment House format! -
This Visual Practice-only feature enables you to export your patient
database into the file format that the FHG Fulfillment House requires in
order to generate your patient FHG mailings. This report is very
flexible, enabling you to preview the list before its formatted, or
restrict the list to patients of a particular doctor. It can also
exclude patients with incomplete addresses or limit the patient list to
patients only seen in the last 24 months.
 FHG/FHN
Smart-Tags -
Visual Practice shows you what patients are FHG/FHN rostered and which ones
aren't throughout the program using a little graphic. This makes FHG
patient identification a snap! Only Visual Practice offers FHG/FHN
Smart-Tags.

Regarding Vendor
Certification
Some vendors of CMS products are promoting
their software as
certified by the ePhysician Project to ensure that they support minimum
clinical and practice management specifications. This
certification is important only in the context of Family Health
Networks. Unlike FHNs, Family Health Groups (FHGs) have no Information Technology
component, nor a CMS IT requirement. This means you have the
choice of choosing inexpensive products such as Visual Practice to
perform your Practice Management and Rostering needs, at a SUBSTANTIALLY
reduced cost. Additionally, Visual Practice can be used in
conjunction with a certified Clinical Management System and meet the
ePhysician Project certification requirements for Family Health
Networks. Visual Practice currently functions and exchanges data
with a least TWO certified CMS systems. Be sure to make an
informed decision in this regard. Blindly purchasing
across-the-board certified products can cost you tens of thousands of
unnecessary extra dollars! It is also important to note the
ePhysician certification provides few assurances or protections; quote
from the Family Health Network website:
"Publication of
the list of certified Local Solution products does not constitute an
endorsement of any product by the ePhysician Project or its partners.
The ePhysician Project, and its partners, do not guarantee, and are not
responsible for, the suitability, performance and usability of the
vendors' products or the financial viability of any vendor."
(www.ontariofamilyhealthnetwork.gov.on.ca/english/cms_mn.html)
The
Visual Practice website will shortly host a list of Visual Practice
Certified CMS products which you can integrate into your Visual Practice
network to perform CMS requirements.
