Access to information is the key to success

Anne Dean and the ADA Group has long been an advocate of putting information in the hands of their clients.  They have accomplished this via a website to which their clients had the exclusive access rights.  The website provided all the new and revised policies as well as new and revised forms.  Other important information includes:

 

QI Studies

Benchmark Studies

Position Descriptions

Performance Appraisals

Required In-services

Self Study Formats

Staff and Procedural Competencies

FAQ's

New Regulations

Survey Results

 

This extensive and comprehensive program will assist centers in staying compliant CMS and accreditation.  ADA monitors CDC, OSHA, ANSI, APIC, ISMP, ASHE, ARON, AAAHC and The Joint Commission, plus many other organizations.

  

ADA is happy to announce that this formerly private service is now available on a subscription service to all ambulatory surgery centers across the nation.  With this service you can now have the peace of mind that all the t's are crossed and the i's are dotted when it comes to ensuring that your facility has all the information needed to stay compliant and accredited. 

  

Contact ASA at www.theadagroup.com or Anne directly at adeanrn@att.net.  You can also visit the website and request a no obligation "private walk though" of the service.

Installation of 5010 version is underway

Installation of AmkaiOffice version 3.9 began in August.  The early release is intended to help users test, validate and be fully operational with AmkaiOffice by Jan. 1, 2012, when the federal mandate takes effect.

 

"It was very important to have the new 5010 transactions standards available to our clients with an early release, so they had the opportunity to implement, test and iron out any issues well in advance of the deadline," said Joe Macies, AmkaiSolutions president and CEO, in the release. "Our physicians, clinics, ASCs and surgical hospitals view this as critical to their operations."

  

The 5010 mandate requires providers, health plans and clearinghouses to upgrade from the current HIPAA 4010A1 transaction standards to the new 5010 standards. The 5010 standard requires that certain healthcare administrative transactions are conducted electronically. This includes claims, remittance, eligibility, and claims status requests and responses.
