Health care facilities can improve compliance with infection-control and respiratory protection policies with the "point-and-click" documentation and tracking functions in MediTrax, and can generate medical surveillance status reports for any segment of the workforce.

MediTrax offers a comprehensive spectrum of HIPAA-compliant employee health data management, which we're happy to review with you in a live demo of our software. Here are just a few examples:

Increase staff efficiency and productivity:

• Point-and-click intuitive menuing increases speed and efficiency of data entry and reporting.
  
• Instant cross-referencing of all data tables eliminates the need for duplicate data entry.
  
• Searchable picklists enable immediate retrieval of employee demographic and clinical records, while essentially eliminating data-entry errors caused by storing critical information in hidden "user-defined" data fields or using non-standard "spur of the moment" user-created codes.
  
• Fully-integrated Employee Personal EMR functionality enables rapid access to multiple categories of each Employee's occupational medical record. Employee health staff may edit the EMR, while the Employee Portal function enables individual workers to view (but not edit) their own records.
  
• Immunization and serology records for individual Employees are available instantly for review or printout.
  
• Point-and-click documentation of immunizations and infectious-disease surveillance (including COVID-19 screening), audiometry, spirometry, and respirator clearance and fit testing helps reduce the burden of maintaining current comprehensive surveillance records in paper charts or spreadsheets.
  
• Point-and-click storage of scanned documents enables unlimited documents to be linked to an Employee's record.
  
• Surveillance-protocol compliance reports help ensure timely notification of employees who are due for periodic screening or evaluation
  
• Customized Clinical Service Protocols help ensure that required evaluation services follow established policies and procedures at the time of each visit, minimizing callbacks.
  
• Workflow-driven patient registration and encounter data entry improves documentation speed and accuracy.
  
• Unique "encounter ticket" numbering ensures rapid documentation of services and creation of clinical encounter notes.
  
• Paperless Flu Clinics: The MediTrax Group Immunization function can utilize magnetic-stripe or RFID-chip badge reader technology (or barcode scanning) to reduce the time required for documentation of immunization consent or declination. Documenting a vaccination or declination requires only 20-30 seconds per individual, without the necessity for any paper forms whatsoever and without the necessity to create ad-hoc spreadsheets or spend thousands of dollars on an external software-and-hardware "badge recognition" application!
  
• MediTrax contains a complete and current library of CDC VIS documents for instant reference or printout.
  
• Multiple follow-up appointments and recall reminders may be created at the time of any evaluation, immunization or surveillance exam. Point-and-click appointment scheduling helps minimize delay and eliminates double-booking errors.
  
• Point-and-click ICD-10 (or ICD-9) and CPT-4 coding improve documentation accuracy.
  
• Nuance Dragon NaturallySpeaking® voice-recognition software enables clinicians to dictate notes and reports into MediTrax, reducing transcription costs.
  
• Instant display and printout of missed appointments enables timely follow-up calls to employees and notification to supervisors.
  
• Integrated case management support and FMLA tracking capabilities reduce the staff workload required to monitor employee disability.

Reduce the burden of regulatory reporting:

• NHSN reports (including annual seasonal-influenza summaries as well as COVID-19 Weekly Summaries) and infectious-disease surveillance compliance reports are available on demand, enabling instant reporting and printout.
  
• HL7 files can be generated on demand for uploading to state immunization registries.
  
• Each occupational injury/illness record is automatically indexed to encounter records, Employer's First Report of Injury forms, and OSHA recordability criteria, minimizing staff overhead required for report preparation.
  
• Comprehensive accident and near-miss documentation enables integrated safety reporting and OSHA recordkeeping.
  
• OSHA 300, 300A, 301 and Sharps Injury Logs are automatically compiled from data entered anywhere in MediTrax, enabling instant reporting and printout.
  
• Comprehensive documentation and reporting of inservice training, including course rosters and individual training records, simplifies institutional compliance tracking.

Improve communication and client satisfaction:

• "One-minute checkout" enables you to print a Work Status Report for any Employee, clearly listing all medical restrictions, the time of arrival and discharge, and the date and time of followup. The Work Status Report contains no PHI and may be instantly sent to the Employee's supervisor via e-mail.
  
• Management reports, periodic-evaluation and return-visit reminders, return-to-work notes, and all other MediTrax reports may be printed to electronic (PDF) files. Reports and rosters which do not contain Protected Health Information (PHI) can be generated on demand and sent to supervisors and Employees via e-mail.
  
• HR/Supervisor access privileges enable management personnel to view and print compliance reports and work status reports without access to PHI.
  
• Automated random-selection protocols enable efficient management of workplace drug testing programs.
  
• Print-on-demand summaries of current cases and work restriction status help ensure supervisors and management are aware of the value of your services.
  
• The MediTrax Employee Portal enables workers to view and print their immunization and infectious-disease surveillance test record, complete vaccination questionnaire/consent/declination forms, view and print CDC Vaccine Information Statements, complete the OSHA Respirator User Questionnaire, view and print their respirator clearance/fit testing record, and view a list of any upcoming appointments and recall reminders — saving multiple visits to the Employee Health office to obtain or submit this information.
  
• IT/IS support requirements are minimal. MediTrax staff are able to provide timely, reliable assistance with software issues, recommendations and questions.
