HomecareNet's DME/HME Functionality
Automate your DME/HME documentation, tracking and billing processes with HomecareNet! Comprehensive tools ensure
accurate records of the history of each piece of equipment and free billing staff from manual tracking of recurring rental charges.
From ordering inventory to producing Medicare-specific documents to comprehensive reporting, HomecareNet's tools
provide the functionality your enterprise needs to manage DME/HME.
Define Inventory
In HomecareNet, sophisticated definitions enable your organization to better manage inventory. All equipment is categorized by type,
documenting maintenance cycles and vendors from whom equipment is purchased. Specific serial numbers are further documented in the
item list, collecting maintenance due dates and a comprehensive history of the item, including patient assignment, pickup, cleaning,
maintenance and sale to a patient.
 Orders
HomecareNet's DME functionality is flexible, allowing you to perform tasks according to your organization's workflow. A specific
item may be assigned to a patient when an order is placed or warehouse staff can add a serial number when the order is filled,
before or after delivery. Plus, orders can be combined with pharmacy and supply orders.
Easy Maintenance & Swaps
HomecareNet's asset-tracking functionality makes maintaining and swapping equipment a breeze. Maintenance due dates are based on
defined maintenace cycles and drive a preventative maintenance report. When an item in use by a patient needs to be replaced or
maintained, HomecareNet allows you to exchange the item. The swap does not impact the billing cycle, so recurring rental charges
and progress toward a cap continue without interruption.
 Purchase Orders
HomecareNet's Purchase Order module supports ordering and receipt of equipment. Purchase orders may be printed, faxed or submitted
electronically to leading medical suppliers using a standard X12 format. Receipts can be recorded via a PDA-based bar code scanner;
entered by exception; or on a line-by-line basis. When you receive several items of the same type, you can enter the lowest serial
number and HomecareNet will automatically generate the remaining serial numbers.
Document Management
HomecareNet can help your organization manage documents required by Medicare, such as 10-month letters and certificates of medical
necessity. Both types of documents are easily created--and responses quickly scanned--in HomecareNet and can be tracked throughout the lifecycle, to ensure proper
follow up and accurate status change history.
Sophisticated Billing Tools
Billing codes and modifiers are defined up front; HomecareNet auto-assigns them based on a patient's rental status. In addition,
HomecareNet automatically generates charges for patients making up-front purchases; recurring charges for patients renting
equipment up to the time service ceases or the cap is met; and regular maintenance of equipment that can be charged to Medicare.
An Enterprise Solution
HomecareNet was developed with the multi-site, multiple-business-line organization in mind. Sophisticated reports allow staff and
management to view equipment history, equipment maintenance activity, patients with DME items assigned and a list of recalled
materials with addresses and bin locations for recalled drugs, supplies or oxygen.
