MEDITRAXTM ON-SITE USER TRAINING

Initial Training:

Although many users find that their experienced occupational health and employee health staff are able to begin using the software immediately, it can be helpful to have some "hands-on" orientation to familiarize users with many of the advanced features of MediTrax as well as its its user-configurable clinical-protocol and billing/accounting capabilities.

As soon as possible after we receive your initial deposit or confirmed purchase order (generally within a week or two), a MediTrax representative will schedule a visit to your facility to install our easy-to-use software and train your entire staff. If you have existing data in a readable, non-proprietary format (such as a spreadsheet, data table or text file) we'll work with you to import those data into MediTrax. We'll even work with your Information Systems staff to load employee demographic data from a host mainframe or an in-house PeopleSoft database into MediTrax.

A MediTrax license package includes two full days of on-site training for your staff at your facility. In our formal on-site training, we review:

  • Preliminary Tasks and Importing Demographic Data with IS staff
  • Setting Up Data Tables with supervisors
  • Menus and Data Entry Screens with everyone using the software
  • Reporting with management staff and clinicians
  • Case Management with case managers, etc.
    A detailed outline of what we cover is shown below.

    Then, if there's ever a problem, you can call us for assistance on our toll-free customer support hotline. Best of all, our on-site training comes at no additional charge -- it's all included in the price of the software!

    Follow-Up Training:

    Management changes, or rapid staff turnover, can sometimes create a situation in which many staff members are not thoroughly familiar with MediTrax. In such cases, additional on-site training can be provided. We reimburse our trainers at the rate of $500 for a single day ($800 for two days), including meals and lodging; the only additional expense is economy-class roundtrip airfare to your location. Contact MediTrax Support to discuss scheduling and cost.


    Subjects Covered During Initial On-Site Training:

    As part of the training provided at your worksite, the following procedures are reviewed with Front Office staff, Clinical staff, and Administrative staff. This is really the nuts and bolts of the on-site orientation, and can last from 3 to 5 hours depending on questions. The remainder of the two-day training is devoted to troubleshooting and ensuring that all users are comfortable with the data flow in MediTrax and are fluent in use of the software.
