Testimonials

"Surgeons need to know how important it is to collect data this way. You're not just dictating your operative report so you have something in the hospital chart – everybody’s looking at this stuff now. OpNote is how the surgical report should be created."

Deanna Attai, MD

"After a short learning curve, surgeons will find that SourcePlus OpNote is faster than dictating and far less onerous for surgeons as the repetition present in 90% of operative reports is eliminated. We now produce superior operative reports while generating additional revenue."

John Mattson, MD

"I have been able to use your program for my operative notes and so far it has been spectacular...some of my OpNotes have taken as little as 15 seconds to change one or two fields and sign out!"

David Grischkan, MD

"Surgeons are such an individual breed - but because mTuitive put this “individuality” into OpNote, where physicians can express themselves in their own words while retaining the structured data, I became convinced that this is the way to go."

H. Walter Kaess, MD

"I saw the immediate value in OpNote – in terms of the efficiency that it created for physicians, the accuracy in documentation, the ability to search and report. And to expand on the accuracy in reporting: it’s not just accuracy in the details but the accuracy in coding, which then turns into quicker and improved reimbursement assistance."

Seth Goldberg, MD

"Beyond the cost savings on a per procedure basis, the real benefit is the tremendous improvement in cash flow resulting from a more rapid billing process that is driven by a much quicker operative report process. Nothing in my experience has made such a significant, positive impact in cash flow as mTuitive's program for operative notes"

David Grischkan, MD

"I like the idea of being able to create an operative report that is complete and comprehensive in a very rapid and efficient way. I review a number of medical legal reports, both for the medical association and for various attorneys, and have been struck by the disorganization and deficiencies of non-standardized dictations. OpNote has made it easy to create a complete, standardized report generated in a rapid and intuitive manner."

John Mattson, MD

"Medical practices require a special employee to review all these reports and codes – and that’s just not cost or time effective. The delay in getting the operative reports was something we noticed – this new system will eliminate those delays."

Roger Chabra, MD

"Our physician partners are now able to complete operative notes and sign them online in a seamless, effortless manner, in a fraction of the time compared to verbal dictation. No longer do we need to chase after surgeons to complete an operative report or sign a dictation weeks after the procedure."

David Grischkan, MD

New OpNote Videos

September 14, 2011 by Rob Dean

Here are some videos addressing some questions you may have about OpNote:

Speed of OpNote:

Once defaults are satisfactorily set up, users will find it's faster to create and sign out a finished report than with dictation and transcription. Again - the report isn't finished until sign out, which OpNote provides immediately, thus allowing for faster reimbursement.

How to Create a Default From Scratch/How to Use the Defaults Page:

OpNote allows users to create default reports for their most common procedures and fill out the sections with the usual, appropriate responses. Users can then go in and make quick changes to reflect the unique aspects of each surgery and sign out in less time than it takes to dictate and transcribe the report.

Do Physicians Have to Use the Codes from the Scheduling System?

No - physicians can easily change the codes until it is to their satisfaction. mTuitive works with surgeons and coders to ensure that their defaults are coded appropriately and the selections by the user (the physician) supersedes any put in by the scheduling system. Also the synoptic format of OpNote reports allows for easier coding process, as each aspect of the procedure is identifiable and not lost amongst any unnecessary text.

Can Other People Initiate Amendments on Signed Out OpNotes?

Yes - coders, billers and administrators can initiated an amendment on the report. It is still up to the surgeon to approve and sign out the amended report, but approved Surgery Center personnel can start the process.
