PRIMUM

Primum is an easy-to-use encounter-tracking and charge-capture solution for physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners.

Designed to support busy and successful hospitalists and hospitalist physician groups, Primum integrates with hospital/skilled nursing facility information systems and supports workflow and revenue cycle needs.

The Primum mobile app is a robust digital rounding list that allows providers and practice coordinators to use their mobile device to track and communicate essential details about each patient encounter their physician group manages. Physicians and APPs (physician assistants and nurse practitioners) can collaborate through patient care teams and track “shared services.” The mobile app offers an optimized layout for handheld devices and increased performance and functionality for users.

FEATURES:

* View a rounding list of patients that have been assigned to you or to others in your group.

* Enter encounters and track which patients have been seen each day.

* View and designate the care team (physician and APP) assigned to each patient; collaborate with shared services.

* Assign, reassign, readmit, and discharge patients.

* Support staff can use Primum’s desktop Web version for log reconciliation, data entry, and other practice management tasks.

* All charge and patient data is transmitted a secure three-way integration engine between the hospital system, Primum, and SymMetric Revenue Solutions billing software.

* SymMetric performs medical coding for physician groups that prefer to delegate this activity.
