We are C/S 5.4 sr2 going to 5.5 sr2 in April. We use CWS for outpatients in our 5 outpatient clinics. We also use PCS for documentation on the IP and OP sides. No problems, no complaints. For outpatients, our "billing" people have have allowed us NOT to discharge our recurrings every month.

>>> "Maria Clause" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 3/7/2007 9:32 AM >>> We are Client Server 5.5 SR2 and last year we implemented PCS in our Outpt PT.It is like trying to fit a round peg in a square hole. We auto-discharge Recurring patients at the end of every month for billing purposes, and this is a huge problem for PT because each month the have to add a new Standard of Care and rebuild the Care Plan. MT says a future release of the software will allow you to copy a Plan of Care to a new visit, but I believe it will not copy Modifiers. They are getting by with a ton of work-arounds, but it*s not the best fit. Let me know if you*d like more info and I can hook you up with the person who built the documentation for OP PT.

I was wondering what other hospitals were using for their OP PT department? We are a Meditech CS hospital and have been looking at other third-party companies because for a little bit of money, you can buy a system that is setup and designed just for PT. I was wondering what other hospital have done and it they are using RAD and PCS to do their Care Plans.
