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 almost immediately, it can be helpful to have extended "hands-on" orientation to familiarize users with many of the advanced features of MediTrax as well as its user-configurable clinical protocols, comprehensive administrative and regulatory reporting, and (for provider-based clinics) 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 HR database (PeopleSoft, Lawson, Cerner, MediTech, etc.) into MediTrax.

A MediTrax license package includes THREE 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. The cost for follow-up training is limited to reimbursement of actual travel expenses (economy-class airfare, and the lowest available hotel and auto rental fees) plus the instructor's fee (we reimburse our trainers at the rate of $600 per day). Contact MediTrax Support to discuss scheduling and cost.

For customers with a current Software Support Agreement, MediTrax underwrites 50% of the instructor's fee.


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 5 to 8 hours depending on questions. The remainder of the three-day training schedule 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.
