FastEMC

News and Notes

  • The changes required to post the Sequestration amount are now available in FastEMC.  If you are posting Medicare Payments, it will make it much easier to apply the correct EOB amounts.  Since the 2% Sequestration amount is taken from the Payment Side it was not easy to make the right postings. Medicare Allows = Insurance Payment + Deductible + Seqestration Disallow + Co Insurance Deducting an Disallow Amount from the payment was not built into the calculations making it impossible to post properly. FINAL NOTE: The Sequestration Disallow can not be passed on to the Co-Insurance or Patient.

  • Still using Dial-up for Clearinghouse connections? These systems cost you money and are very slow.  Keeping a phone line active is not necessary.  Many clearinghouses are using web based systems.  Shut off that extra phone line and see if you can save money and get a better interface with a clearinghouse.

Your support specialist talked me through setting this up on a new computer and was absolutely wonderful. She returned my calls immediately and was great to work with.
Physical Therapy Group Practice
In my 35+ years working with technical support people, [your support supervisor] is by far the best I have ever worked with. She has everything you could ask for in a tech support person. She is very knowledgeable, quickly understands the problems, explains things clearly and is most tolerant. It is such a delight to have one's telephone requests responded to very quickly and multiple later calls answered very quickly too.
