Treatment provider workflow
While AHAS comes ready to handle the workflow of any standard Behavioral Health treatment provider, your organization might do things a little differently.
That is not a problem because AHAS is flexible, and can be customized for your agency. This will not only help implement best practices at your institution, it will also minimize any costs associated with staff retraining and changes in methodology.
All customization and system changes will be identified and implemented as part of the initial deployment plan.
Filling a niche
Behavioral Health Treatment providers are routinely challenged to justify their existence; they have to demonstrate that they are meeting their mission goals. As it turns out many of these agencies depend on multiple systems and touch points to keep their organizations running smoothly. Naturally, when more time is spent on administrative tasks and support activities, core functions take a hit. That is when you turn to a system like AHAS.
With over 10 years of positive experience in the Behavioral Health industry, clients have come to rely on AHAS – a full fledged EHR system – to streamline their IT operations, eliminate repetitive data entry into multiple in-house and state systems, and simplify their clinical, billing and reporting functions .
