Atlanta, Ga. (PRWEB) June 30, 2009 -- Patient Placement Systems announced today that healthcare provider Berkshire Healthcare Systems of Pittsfield, Mass., has signed on to use the Web-based Referral Management System long-term care software to manage inbound patient referrals.
The Referral Management System automates and accelerates patient and client referral intake for long-term care providers (http://www.patientplacement.com/VIDEOS/IntroductionToRMS/Presentation_Files/index.html), replacing slow fax-and-paper processes with a fast, simple and efficient online software service. Each of the 16 Berkshire Healthcare facilities included in the agreement, as well as corporate users, can review, track, approve and archive referral documents securely online, applying efficiency and consistency to referral processes.
"The Referral Management System enables all of our locations to be more responsive to referral sources," said Lisa Gaudet, vice president of business development and marketing for Berkshire. "And our corporate and facility-level managers can see and report all referral activities and trends, which allows them to indentify opportunities to streamline and standardize processes at individual locations and across the entire organization."

Berkshire focused on several key admissions and business processes in the pilot program, including referral tracking and reporting, response time analysis, task management, fax management, insurance verification, and post-admissions workflow.
