Fill and Print
Software
UB-04 and CMS
1500 forms can be completed and then sent electronically or
printed with inexpensive software (or form filler) called
"Fill and Print" software. We recommend
Speedy
Soft's Speedy Claim for the office that doesn't have a practice
management system but needs to fill out CMS 1500 forms.
An office that is still filling out CMS forms by hand may
find this form filling software a good solution. It
coul d save a good deal of time over handwriting the claims and
have a much greater chance of being accurate and paid
correctly. Insurance companies have become very reluctant
to accept hand written claims. Many are demanding they are
printed and denying the hand written submissions.
To use the software, the information is typed on the CMS 1500
form on the computer screen just as if you were typing it
directly onto the form. You can very simply type the
info into the correct boxes just as you would if it were in a
typewriter or you were writing it in with a pen and the software
fills the forms. The software even sends the claims
electronically or prints them to paper.
You can store the physician information and
it prints on the claims. It also contains a
patient library storing all the patients' information.
This is a particularly nice feature for specialties where
patients return often and are billed on a regular basis.
The
Speedy Claim fill and
print software unlike most other fill and print software is also
capable of storing diagnosis, insurance companies, rendering and
referring doctors ICD9 codes, CPT codes and much more. It also
has export capabilities to a spread sheet. Their new model
even stores the claims so you can track them.
They also offer an
ICD9 Loader with the
software which loads all the ICD9 codes into the software with
long descriptions so you can look up the ICD9 codes while you are
entering your claim information.
With a few simple
clicks, you then print the claim or send it electronically
depending on your situation. The cost is only
$249.95. They offer lifetime free support and free
updates and are totally NPI compliant. Speedysoft also
offers the software on a memory stick you plug in your USB port
so you can bring it home with you and your claims information
stored on it.
They also
offer a version
for multiple providers that could be used by a billing service or
an office with more than one doctor. This would be an
inexpensive way to start a medical billing service.
If you have an medical office with no practice management system,
this is a great way to still be able to print and send your own
claims inexpensively. It is a great time saver and
doesn't cost the thousands of dollars a practice management
system will cost you.
