On Friday, March 15, your Kareo Practice Management (PM) account was upgraded to the latest version. This month, the main focus was adding a feature that will help you tackle the ever growing patient-due receivables and save you time when printing patient statements.

New Features & Enhancements

• Batch Statement Processing: Your Kareo PM now has the ability to print patient statements across multiple patients at the same time. We know this has been a highly requested feature and hope it will help streamline your processes.
• Payer Denial Remarks in Claim Transaction History: After a payment is posted, the denial remark code will be shown in the appropriate line item in the claim transaction history.
• Linking Provider and User Accounts: We simplified the process to create a new user from the New Provider and Edit Provider screens.
• Fixes: There are eight other items we corrected during this release cycle. Check out the full release notes for more information.

Looking Ahead
As we look to the next major additions to Kareo PM, the hottest item on our list right now is batch eligibility verification. The idea around batch eligibility is to take the patients scheduled for appointments and automatically check eligibility on all of them prior to the patient presenting at the office. We are aiming for an April release of this feature and will keep you posted on our progress.

For more on these new features and enhancements or our plans for future development, read the full release notes.
