This important messaging ensures that your users are coding within a valid date range. Messaging & rules are customizable and you may now copy existing messaging rules to easily assist in creating a new alert.
New Feature!
History of Patient Insurance
CGM LYTEC 2025 adds the ability to track a patient’s
insurance history. See when a patient’s insurance was
terminated or when they switched from one carrier to
another.
New Feature!
Enhanced Patient Responsibility Estimate
Deliver better service at the point of care with the eMEDIX Patient Responsibility Estimate. Provide a good-faith
cost estimate for planned procedures by quickly running a patient’s insurance eligibility for the planned procedure
codes. Save time with pre-configured Linked Transactions for common procedure bundles. In CGM LYTEC 2025, this service expands for self-pay and uninsured patients.
This integrated estimate display allows the user to make any patient or insurance adjustments for coverage, copays, coinsurance, remaining deductibles, etc. Past payments and charge histories are factored in to provide a more accurate estimate.
Providers can print and save patient estimates and have the option to tailor them with customizable messaging.
New Feature!
Smarter, Expanded Search Capability
No longer bound by an “exact match” restriction, the new “partial match” filter for multiple reports lets users search by references included within the transactions. This small addition removes a common pain point and helps users find the information they need much more quickly.
New Feature!
Duplicate Charge Warning
CGM LYTEC 2025 notifies users when two charges share
the same date of service and provider. This important
addition eliminates the hassles associated with duplicate
charges.
