Abstract

A medical practice management system can be used to manage a medical practice. A medical practice management server communicates with a medical practice client user interface over a first network and communicates with a payor server over a second network. The medical practice management server receives information associated with a visit by a patient to the medical practice. Prior to using the information to create a claim, the medical practice management server automatically and repeatedly interacts with the information to ensure correct information by either applying one or more rules to the information or by performing one or more transactions with the payor server. The medical practice management server performs a correcting action in response to finding an error in the information and subsequently uses the information to create an insurance claim.
