Reduce Your Administrative Costs
"One quarter of all medical spending goes to administrative and overhead costs and reliance on antiquated paper-based record and information systems that needlessly increase these costs."

The average dental practice spends upwards of $15,800 on the creation and storage of patient charts each year and spends at least $11,520 annually on 576 hours of labor requited to maintain paper records.

New Legislation
On February 17, 2009 President Obama signed into law The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, providing $19 billion funding for health information technology such as Electronic Health Records [formerly know as Electronic Medical Records]. Section (3) (a) (ii) States, “Plan to include specific objectives, milestones, and metrics with respect to the following: The utilization of an electronic health record for each person in the United States by 2014.”
What does it mean to be HIPAA compliant with a website?
Submit Patient Forms has two levels of protection built into its system. Here’s one scenario: Six months down the line, the patient says, “You asked me for all this personal and medical information, but you never advised me of my rights.” Until the patient clicks on “I Accept” at the end of the HIPAA document, the first screen they see, they cannot see or fill out any other forms. When the electronic forms are completed, they are digitally recorded with the Date, Time of day and IP addresses [computer the patient was using] at the bottom of page. Secondly, no personal information is sent in an email that could be intercepted (it is uploaded onto our secure website), so the practice is protected. HIPAA rules recommend that electronic transfers of personal health information and access to it are protected by encryption and authentication. SPF’s service meets those standards.
