MedicareFind. The Search is Over.

By Andrea Kraynak, CPC-A

The Search is Over.

HCPro, Inc. has announced the launch of MedicareFind (www.medicarefind.com), a new Web-based regulatory database that allows healthcare managers to quickly locate, access, and keep up with Medicare reimbursement rules and regulations.

MedicareFind expands HCPro’s products and services that assist healthcare providers with monitoring and responding to the changing regulatory environment in which they work. The Web site features a uniquely robust, flexible, and easy-to-use search engine combined with a vast and constantly updated database of documents. Users will find the specific regulatory source authority document they need quickly instead of scrolling through pages of search results.

MedicareFind first debuted in April at The Health Care Compliance Association’s annual Compliance Institute in Las Vegas. Institute attendees stepped up to take a side-by-side challenge which pitted MedicareFind against the CMS Web site.

“MedicareFind found the right documents faster than a CMS search every time,” said Lauren McLeod, HCPro Group Publisher. “People found it easy to use and liked the filters that allowed them to narrow their search by agency, document type, and date. They told us it was easier to quickly determine whether the document met their needs because they saw all the pertinent details about the document in the search results.”

HCPro regulatory experts and developers worked with 50 development partners — professionals from healthcare organizations across the nation — throughout the development of MedicareFind. McLeod said the partners have been an integral part of the development process, from determining which rules and regulations to include in the database to testing the site design and the search features.

With shrinking workforces and limited budgets, MedicareFind was developed in response to the need for a solution that offers increased productivity and time saved searching for the regulatory compliance guidance.

MedicareFind is available to single users or as a multi-user or site license, and HCPro will offer free trials at the database Web site (www.medicarefind.com) For more information about MedicareFind, visit www.medicarefind.com.
