Reports Segment
Why Use This Function:
The Reports Segment provides the Practice instant access to the financial, administrative, and clinical data needed for daily operations. Staff can track Patient and Debtor activity, monitor outstanding accounts, review billing history, and analyse trends that affect financial stability. By consolidating multiple report types such as Debtor Drilldowns, Age Analyses, Referral Lists, and Audit Logs, the Reports segment helps identify risks, keep ahead of Payment Plan management, improve cash flow, and maintain compliance with internal policies and healthcare regulations. This centralised reporting function strengthens decision-making, enhances accountability, and streamlines administrative work, enabling the Practice to operate more efficiently every day.

CRM
The CRM serves as a central communication tool that allows you to manage and maintain relationships with your Debtors and Patients. It enables the Practice to filter Debtors by various criteria, such as age, gender, and outstanding amounts, and then send personalised bulk SMSes or emails. This is essential for efficiently managing reminders, Follow-ups, Recalls, and other Patient engagement initiatives. A well-maintained CRM ensures improved communication, reduces missed appointments, supports faster payments, and ultimately enhances the overall Patient experience. By automating these outreach tasks, you save time, reduce manual errors, and strengthen your connection with the people you serve.
