The need for such a system is critical when exceeding the Medicare B therapy codes, which require providers to demonstrate the value of a treatment in terms of improved functional outcomes and cost-effectiveness. The Rehabilitation Outcomes Measure (ROM) is a comprehensive multidisciplinary outcomes system exclusive to Cypress, and is an industry standard for tracking outcomes. Outcomes data can be used to perform trends analysis, which aids new program development, program enhancement, and service-delivery improvements. The Cypress ROM considers the unique characteristics of each rehab patient and provides discipline-specific data for physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech language pathology. ROM complements existing discipline-free scales, presenting both intra- and inter-disciplinary views of patient progress. Outcomes information helps therapists, managers, physicians and payers improve patientcare decisions. enable your team Are you reaching your competitive potential?

Cypress Therapy Management Crack the Code! CPT check Does your therapy department ever get confused about mutually exclusive CPT codes or the proper use of a billing modifier? The Cypress procedure code check monitors the need for code modifiers and alerts therapists when they record mutually exclusive procedures in the same visit.

With the automatic CPT Check, Cypress eliminates the risk of compliance issues. CPT code reimbursement How do you track different CPT code fee schedules and Medicare Part B charges?

Using the CPT Selector, therapists select codes for their disciplines in a fraction of the time it would take to look them up in a procedure manual. They search by category, number, description or simply use the auto-populated start up codes. Once selected, these codes display on therapy service logs, billing documents, and on a daily to-do list.
