Processing orders for durable medical equipment is a paper and time-intensive process that can easily trigger Medicaid billing reviews. Certificates of Medical Necessity (CMN) and other forms must be filled out and processed by both the physician and the Home Medical Equipment (HME) providers.

In 2002, Authentidate introduced CareCert™, a web based, HIPAA compliant solution, that enables HME providers and doctors to securely, completely and accurately fill out and process CMN’s and physician’s orders online. The CareCert product utilizes the USPS^® Electronic Postmark^® (USPS^® EPM^®) as a trusted content authority that digitally hashes and time/date stamps the document content. Evidence of content authenticity is stored in the USPS EPM repository for seven years to ensure trusted non-repudiation of content.

Benefits include:

• Faster forms processing
  
• Accurate audit trail readily available

In February 2004, CareCert was selected by the American Association for Homecare as the standard platform for the online processing of CMNs and Physician Orders.

We continue to support our CareCert customers and encourage you to take advantage of the enhanced capabilities of Inscrybe Healthcare today. Click here for more information on Inscrybe Healthcare.
