OP Community Listservs

About

Office Practicum has five Community Listservs that are designed to be a space for our users in leadership positions at their practice to ask workflow-related questions, get OP tips and tricks from fellow OP users, share best practices and successes, and learn something new every day!

The three Listserv communities are:

  • OP Providers / Physicians: NP, PA, MD, DO Listserv
  • Office Manager / Practice Administrator Listserv
  • OP Enterprise

Mission Statement

Listserv How-Tos

How To: Choose a Subscription Preference

Your choices for subscription methods include:

  • ALL email: Many active subscribers find this the best method to follow threads which have multiple commenters and screenshots. However, on a busy day, it may feel overwhelming to have these emails interspersed with important business correspondence. Most users who choose the ALL email subscription, filter the listserv emails through their own, separate inbox folder in their email client.
  • Digest: This option gives you up to 25 full new messages in a single email. Many users tell us this is the most efficient, but is sometimes difficult to follow threads and see the screenshots that apply to each post. It can also be difficult when you respond to a digest for the other participants to understand exactly what you are referring to. If you are responding to a digest message, we recommend you consider sending fresh email and summarize what you are responding to.
  • Web participation only: This option allows you to access the google groups to search for information but no notification is proactively sent to you.

How To: Search the Archives

Located at the top of each Listserv, is a search bar where text can be entered to search for specific messages. If advanced search options are needed, simply click the drop-down arrow located in the right corner of the search bar to display those options. Whether searching in the search bar or in the advance search window, be sure to click .

How To: Unsubscribe

Tips for Getting Help Fast on the Listserv

Good screenshots (NO PHI please)

  • For some tips on capturing clean screenshots, click here.

Ask specific questions

  • Instead of: “What revenue reports do you run?" Try this: “I am looking for a way to get to the totals for specific CPT codes in specific date ranges I would love to have total charges, payments and receipts for rendering provider per specific CPT code for a specified date range that I choose”
  • Instead of: “I need a report for demographics, what should I use?” Try this: “We need demographic and billing data of patients seen only when they were seen at one of our 3 locations during a specific time period. The data requirements include:  Location (ID), Patient number, First Name, Last Name, D.O.B., Gender, Race, Ethnicity, Date of service, Rendering Provider, Procedure code/s, Diagnosis code/s, Insurance”

Examples of Strategy questions

  • “I have to get 2000 families signed up for the portal by next month!”
  • “How can I get DIRECT addresses for all the specialists at Main Town Mecca?”
  • “What is the best way to run XYZ style report in OP?”

Examples of Workflow-related questions

  • “My state is asking for XYZ, how are others handling this in OP?”
  • “How are you documenting XYZ in your practice”

Identify Yourself

  • Please sign your emails with your full name, practice and location so that we can know who you are and how best to help you! (And if you use an alias email address, include your email in your signature in case anyone wants to contact you off list.)
