Cotton Rohrscheib is a critical part of the Rock-Pond Solutions team. He is the “man behind the curtain” that has brought our web presence to life and who has inspired many of the corporate branding changes that have come to life here over the past 2 years since he joined the Pond. Beyond this, he and his wife Donna are personal friends that are the kind of people that everyone needs in their life. You can count on them for a smile, helping hand or an encouraging word when you need it most. Whether Cotton is working out some WordPress bug in the middle of the night, helping someone who is homeless get a coat to stay warm or brightening up the office when he walks in with a smile, it’s always good.
He and Donna were made to be parents. To be a kid in their home would be a dream come true. And today, that dream is coming true. After what seems like an eternity for them, they are on their way to bring their adopted baby home. Their story is incredible and you can read all about it (as well as get the full flavor of Cotton’s perspective and craziness) on Cotton’s blog. Or you can just celebrate with Lynn and I and the entire Rock-Pond team as someone who is so dear to us is closing a chapter with much uncertainty and pain and starting a new journey in their life. May the hope and belief that got you here, also get you there, wherever that might be.
Cotton and Donna – we are celebrating with you today.
The first one is the question mark inside the parenthesis icon. This allows you to quickly change one or more parameters to rerun the report. If you just ran a summary report by physician and want to see the breakdown by payer within physician you simply click on this icon and add the second grouping. If you found out which payer was causing a particular problem for a physician, you can quickly change the order of the groupings to show the report by physician within payer to see the other physicians that are referring patients who are covered by this insurance company. You can also rerun the report as a new report and have two copies of the same report open on separate screens if you need to compare them side by side.
The second feature is the FIND feature that allows you to find something in the report. We received a call today from someone who asked if there was a way to find a delivery ticket based on a ticket number. In CPR+ this is easy to do if the ticket has not been billed but it isn’t easy after it has been billed. Although Rock-Pond does not have report that you can specify a delivery ticket number as a parameter, we have many reports that have the delivery ticket number on them. Regardless of what report you are running, you can search the report on the screen to quickly find an invoice number, ticket number, name, check number, etc. The time savings are tremendous.
Setting up a new Google calendar, I was in the setup and noticed this setting. How often do I get a meeting request for an hour that is for a subject that could be covered in 30 minutes or less? At Rock-Pond Solutions we strive to be efficient and to produce efficiencies for our customers. This was an ah-hah moment for me. Not really anything new, but a great reminder of how inefficient meetings are and how important it is to cut them short when we can. The next time you schedule a meeting, consider these questions:
