CASE 13
Physician Revenue Tracker

01 The problem
Doctors track their surgical fees by hand, on paper or in a spreadsheet, between cases. A case gets jotted down on a scrap of paper, the fee is worked out from memory, and the note goes in a pocket. Claims slip. Follow-ups get missed. Real money goes uncollected because no one can see what is still owed or how long it has sat. By the time anyone adds it up, the trail is cold and the fee is written off.
02 The system
A mobile tracker for surgical fees. Log a case in seconds between procedures. Point the camera at the patient sticker and the app reads the name and number for you, so nothing is typed twice or copied wrong. The fee fills in from a built-in rate table instead of being worked out by hand. Each one moves from filed to paid with a tap, and the totals update as you go. A needs-action list shows the largest unpaid fees first, so the biggest money gets chased before anything else.
03 How it holds up
It runs on a phone, between cases, where the billing happens. The camera reads the patient sticker on the device and scores how sure it is before anything is saved, so a bad read never quietly becomes a wrong claim. Each fee is calculated from a weighting table of twenty procedures, so the same case bills the same amount every time. Every fee is tracked by payer across HMO, PhilHealth, private, and corporate, and moved through a timestamped pipeline from filed to paid, so you can see how long each one has waited. The dashboard reads collected against uncollected at a glance, broken down by payer and by status, and the largest unpaid fees rise to the top on their own.
04 The result
A doctor logs a case in seconds and always knows what is still owed. Money that used to slip away quietly now gets chased and collected. The fee is captured the moment the case ends, not days later from memory, and the biggest unpaid claims are always in plain sight. The paper chase for unpaid fees is over.

1. The patient sticker is read on the device, with the name and hospital number pulled out by pattern and scored for confidence before one tap fills the case form.
2. Fees are calculated, not typed. Twenty anesthesia procedures each carry their own weighting against a base rate, billed across HMO, PhilHealth, private, and corporate payers.
3. Every fee moves through a Draft, Filed, Paid pipeline with each step timestamped, so the dashboard always reads collected against uncollected, by payer and by status.
