TotalMD

TotalMD is a medical billing and practice management software product from MicroMD, the developer behind the MicroMD practice management and EHR products, designed to integrate clinical and financial workflows in an affordable, full-featured package. It addresses the challenge many small and mid-sized practices face in balancing the cost of software with the need for robust billing capabilities. Accurate, efficient billing is essential for practice cash flow, yet errors in coding, eligibility and claims submission frequently lead to denials and delayed payments. TotalMD aims to provide a comprehensive solution that helps practices manage scheduling, patient accounts and claims efficiently, while connecting with clinical systems so that information flows smoothly from patient encounters to billing. Its approach prioritises affordability and usability, making it accessible to independent practices that need professional-grade billing tools without the complexity of enterprise healthcare systems.

Key features include patient registration and demographics, appointment scheduling, insurance eligibility verification, charge entry and coding support, and electronic claims submission with claim scrubbing. Payment posting, including electronic remittance advice, accounts receivable management and patient statement generation support the collections process. Reporting tools provide insight into practice financial performance, payer mix, productivity and outstanding balances. Integration with electronic health record systems allows clinical documentation to feed billing, reducing duplicate data entry and improving coding accuracy. Clearinghouse connectivity supports claims processing, and patient engagement tools such as reminders may be available. TotalMD has been offered in both installed and hosted forms, so practices should confirm current deployment options with the vendor. It is aimed at independent physician practices across a range of specialties, as well as small groups and billing services seeking a cost-effective practice management system. Pricing starts from around USD 129 per month with a free trial available; there is no permanently free version of the product.
