The WRS Health powered ENT-Cloud^SM, was designed specifically to meet the needs of Otolaryngologists. Our platform integrates every aspect of your head and neck practice.

The result: Increased efficiencies and ensuring you get paid for the services you perform.

ENT-Cloud^SM is pre-loaded with the content used by Otolaryngologists and all Ear, Nose, and Throat sub-specialties. Content is organized to enable you to chart efficiently. For example, an ENT Normal Review of System can be charted with just one click.

Since Otolaryngologists have varying charting needs and styles, we provide our 6-Tier Customization Engine. It enables you to quickly establish your own library of templates that precisely match your charting preferences.

Charting routine to complex encounters is simplified with our platform. For example, when you complete a chart for Adenoiditis, Cerumen Impaction, or a Laryngeal Video Stroboscope, intelligent templates enable you to quickly chart out the encounter with one-click.

For charting encounters that require additional or special documentation, WRS Health has engineered a smooth workflow for the otolaryngology office with a specially designed digital pen (http://ent-cloud.com/emr/ent-emr-digital-pen). With our innovative digital pen technology, providers or patients merely write their information and data is immediately transmitted directly to the EHR. There is no need to spend time scanning or manually entering data. Some of our forms include: ENT Vertigo, Dizziness questionnaire with data, Vestibular evaluation form, SNOT-20 questionnaire, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Initial Patient intake form as well as other ENT-specific patient forms and content.

The surgery scheduling workflow module in ENT-Cloud^SM was built to handle preoperative, perioperative and postoperative charting, billing, and scheduling functions a busy Head and Neck practice.

Seamless charge entry relieves the provider, front desk and billing office of this laborious process and makes it automatic and systematized. When charting an ENT procedure, such as a Fiber Optic Laryngoscopy the charge seamlessly flows to the claim for submission without the need for re-keying performed procedures on your claims. Superbills and dual entry of data are eliminated.The ENT Surgery Workflow Queue tracks the global period so that payments for unrelated services during the global period aren't forfeited. Your pre-authorized CPT codes are automatically queued for claim submission on the date of surgery. No charges are lost in the “hand-off.”
