Lytec 2011 is enabled for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) X12 version 5010 standards (referred to as ANSI 5010). These standards regulate the electronic transmission of specific healthcare transactions, including eligibility, claims, remittances, claim status and referrals. Not only does Lytec contain all of the data fields necessary to generate ANSI 5010-enabled claims, in many cases the system includes drop-down menus and
the English equivalent of codes to help guide billers. As a result, billers don’t have to be expert coders in order to submit claims with correct information the first time.

Lytec 2011 Feature Evolution◄◄
From the time you schedule a patient to the time you get paid for the services you provide, Lytec 2011 helps you efficiently manage your practice workflow.
Scheduling
Using the Lytec appointment scheduler, a coordinator can view appointments in a number of ways. Thanks to the flexibility of the system, a coordinator is able to quickly find the best appointment to meet both the patient’s and the practice’s needs.
Billing
Claims are generated using customizable rules-based grids that allow your practice to easily address different carrier filing requirements. The flexibility of the grid system enables you to enter limitless claim submission scenarios, and it gives your practice the flexibility it needs to make changes to address future payor changes and government mandates.
Revenue Management
The Revenue Management feature in Lytec 2011 enables you to check for errors with pre-claim editing and ANSI validation before you submit your claims for payment. Revenue Management also checks for insurance eligibility before a service is performed. Finally, Revenue Management translates and displays the 835 electronic remittance advice (ERA) in an intuitive window that allows the biller to review the payment information, make changes if necessary, and post (or not post) each individual payment and adjustment.
The Lytec® practice management (PM) system from McKesson offers the stability that thousands of users trust to run their practices and get their bills paid — only now Lytec is better. With 2011, Lytec debuts all-new technology that makes the application fast and easy-to-use, so office staff can accomplish more in less time. From scheduling to billing to revenue management, Lytec has your practice covered.
