Urology charge capture software captures billable codes generated during hospital rounds and post-operative follow-up, not just scheduled office visits. HybridChart EVOLVE lets urologists document charges in 3 seconds at the bedside and syncs them across every facility they round in.
- Urology charges generated during hospital rounds are easy to lose between OR schedules and office visits.
- HybridChart EVOLVE captures charges in 3 seconds at the bedside across every facility a urologist rounds in.
- Manual charge capture errors cost medical practices 3 to 5 percent of annual revenue industry-wide.
- Customers using HybridChart report 10 to 15 percent revenue gains after adoption.
How does mobile rounding capture urology charges that get missed between the OR and the office?
Urologists often see hospital consults and post-surgical rounds between scheduled OR blocks and office hours. Those encounters generate billable charges that are easy to lose if they aren’t captured at the moment of care. HybridChart EVOLVE‘s Census Management keeps a real-time patient list across every facility a urologist rounds in.
Charge capture happens at the bedside, in 3 seconds, with CPT and ICD-10 code search built for the rounding workflow, rather than reconstructed later from memory or a paper list.
Can urologists capture hospital rounding charges separately from OR and office charges?
Yes. HybridChart EVOLVE captures hospital rounding charges at the point of care, independent of how OR and office visits are scheduled or billed.
Why does charge lag matter for a urology practice with a heavy hospital rounding schedule?
Industry-wide, medical practices lose 3 to 5 percent of annual revenue to manual charge capture errors, and the standard charge lag runs 3 to 7 days. For a urology practice managing both OR schedules and rounds, that lag adds up across a full week.
HybridChart eliminates that lag at the point of capture, so charges reach billing the same day they’re generated.
How much revenue does charge lag cost a urology practice?
Industry data shows charge lag typically runs 3 to 7 days, and manual capture errors tied to that lag account for 3 to 5 percent of annual practice revenue.
How does HybridChart support the rest of a urologist’s rounding and follow-up workflow?
HybridChart EVOLVE includes secure, HIPAA-compliant messaging for coordinating with RCM staff and schedulers, and Discharge Planning tools that flag post-surgical patients for follow-up. Customers report a 70 percent increase in TCM participation after adopting these discharge visibility tools.
HybridChart connects to the EHRs urology groups already use, including athenahealth, Epic, Cerner, and MEDITECH, with connections typically activated within 1 to 2 business days.
Does HybridChart work with the EHR my hospital already has in place?
Yes. HybridChart integrates with athenahealth, Epic, Cerner, and MEDITECH, with connections typically activated within 1 to 2 business days.
How does HybridChart EVOLVE compare to manual rounding sheets and generic EHR apps?
The table below compares the three approaches practices typically choose between for capturing charges during hospital rounds.
| Capability | Manual Rounding Sheets | Generic EHR Mobile Apps | HybridChart EVOLVE |
|---|---|---|---|
| Charge capture location | Recorded on paper, entered later | Built for office visits, not bedside hospital rounding | Captured at the bedside in 3 seconds |
| Charge lag | 3 to 7 day industry-standard lag | Not designed for real-time inpatient capture | Eliminated at the point of capture |
| Multi-facility visibility | No real-time visibility across facilities | Tied to a single practice’s EHR instance | Real-time census across every facility a physician rounds in |
| Revenue impact | 3 to 5 percent annual revenue loss (industry standard) | Revenue leakage from inpatient workflow gaps | Customers report 10 to 15 percent revenue gains post-adoption |
Key Takeaway: Closing the Urology Charge Capture Gap
Urology practices lose revenue in the space between OR schedules, office visits, and hospital rounds. HybridChart EVOLVE captures those rounding charges in 3 seconds at the bedside and connects directly to the EHRs urology groups already rely on.
See how HybridChart can close the charge capture gap in your urology practice.
