Common problems in healthcare administration and what changes with Mera Work

Most clinics, hospitals and healthcare back offices come to Mera Work with these needs. A setting or a report you already have covers them.

Front desks run rotating shifts across sites
Shift templates go on a weekly roster for your desks, and the Shift Tracker shows late starts and early finishes at all sites.
Billing and coding backlogs build up quietly
Set up payers or clients as projects and batches as tasks, and the Project Report shows hours logged against the estimate.
Screens show patient records
Set blur up to the highest level for the billing and records teams, or switch screenshots off for the people who handle the most sensitive records.
Too many people can see screenshots
Custom roles decide who views screenshots and live screens, and at what scope: the whole organisation, a team or a person.
Staff step away for ward rounds and meetings
Time away from the computer is added through a time claim, approved by the manager, so the day's record stays complete.
Billing teams work US hours from India
People work in their own time zones, with a cut off time that keeps a night shift on the same working day.
Nobody knows how long goes into the EMR
Search the EMR or the billing system in Application Usage to see who used it and for how long, by team and by day.
Busy seasons stretch the same few people
During insurance audits, patient surges or flu season, the Attendance report and the Time Tracker show long days person by person.

A night shift in a medical billing team, and how Mera Work records it

A billing and coding team in India working US clinic hours, on a shift that runs past midnight. Here is who is working and what Mera Work records, step by step.

  1. 18:30 Coders

    Login for the US day

    Attendance starts with the first activity, measured against the coder's night shift and roster.

  2. 19:00 Medical coder

    Coding the day's charts

    Coders select a client clinic and a batch, and time in the EMR and coding tools is recorded against it.

  3. 22:00 Team lead

    The backlog by clinic

    The Project Report shows hours logged against the estimate for client clinics on the shift.

  4. 01:15 Medical coder

    A screenshot is captured

    The coding team's screenshots are set to a high blur level, so patient details are blurred in all captures. Anyone who views them is recorded in the Tracker audit.

  5. 03:30 Shift manager

    The shift ends after midnight

    A cut off time keeps the whole shift on the same working day, and the Shift Tracker shows how the shift went.

How Mera Work fits different kinds of healthcare work

A clinic chain, a billing company, an online pharmacy and a telehealth team set Mera Work up in their own way.

Hospital and clinic administration

Front desk, scheduling and records staff on shifts and rosters, sites as locations, and time in the HIS and EMR.

Medical billing, coding and revenue cycle

Client clinics or payers as projects, night shifts in US time, blurred screenshots, and reports exported for client reviews.

Online pharmacy and health tech operations

Order processing, customer support and operations teams measured by their own tools, with attendance for all shifts.

Telehealth and patient coordination

Remote coordinators across time zones, time in scheduling and consultation tools, and screenshots kept to the roles that need them.

How Mera Work supports healthcare administration and back office teams

Shifts and sites go in once, controls over patient data are set per person, and the records for reviews build as the team works.

Shifts and attendance across sites

Create shift templates for your desks and assign them fixed or on a weekly roster, in bulk. Attendance runs from a person's first activity to their last, and the Shift Tracker shows time and activity inside the shift. Group any report by site or department, and add time away from the computer through a time claim that the manager approves.

  • Fixed or weekly roster, assigned in bulk
  • Reports grouped by site or department
  • Time claims for rounds and meetings, with approval
  • Cut off time and time zone per person

Patient data on screen under your control

Choose a blur level from 0 to 3 for a person or in bulk, and switch screenshot capture off for anyone who handles the most sensitive records. Where you allow it, Work Mode lets a person pause tracking during confidential work. Custom roles decide who can view screenshots and live screens, downloads go through Download Requests, and screenshots can be stored in your own AWS, Azure or Google Cloud storage.

  • Blur and capture set per person or in bulk
  • Work Mode for confidential work, where you allow it
  • Roles with organisation, team or individual scope
  • Screenshots in your own cloud storage

An audit trail for the monitoring itself

The Tracker audit records who viewed screenshots and live screens, and when. Settings History records changes to monitoring settings, with the old value, the new value and who made it. Category Audit records changes to how apps and websites are classified.

  • Tracker audit of screenshot and live screen views
  • Settings History with old and new values
  • Category Audit for app and website labels
  • Reports exported with dates and times

Set up fairly for the roles from the front desk to the back office

Front desk staff, coders, team leads, site heads and administrators need something different from the same record.

Front desk and admin staff
Measured against their own shift, with time away from the desk added by a time claim and their own record visible where you allow it.
Billing and coding specialists
Time logged against the client clinic or batch they select, with blur set for the records they handle.
Team leads
Their own team on the dashboard, hours against backlogs, and idle alerts by email.
Operations and site heads
Clinics and sites grouped by location, with attendance and workload compared side by side.
IT and compliance administrators
Roles and report scope, blur and capture settings, download approvals, and the Tracker audit and Settings History.
Clients of a billing company
Reports for their own account, exported with dates and times for monthly reviews.

Common questions about Mera Work for healthcare teams

Which healthcare staff is Mera Work for?

Staff who work at a computer: front desk, scheduling, records, billing, coding, claims and operations teams. It runs on Windows, macOS and Linux desktops and laptops.

Does Mera Work work with our HIS or EMR?

It records time in any desktop app or website, including your HIS, EMR and billing systems, and you mark them productive by team. Data can be shared with other systems through the API.

How is patient data on screen protected?

Set blur up to the highest level or switch screenshots off for chosen people, limit viewing by role, and approve downloads. Screenshots can also be stored in your own AWS, Azure or Google Cloud storage.

Does Mera Work read records, emails or what people type?

No. It records time, apps, websites, activity levels and the screenshots you allow. Typing is counted as volume only, but a screenshot can show what is on screen, so blur it where needed.

What about time spent away from the computer?

Staff add it through a time claim, such as a ward round or a meeting, and the manager approves it before it counts.

Can we see who looked at screenshots?

Yes. The Tracker audit records views of screenshots and live screens, and Settings History records changes to monitoring settings with who made it.

Can we host Mera Work ourselves?

Yes, for enterprise customers, in a private cloud or in your own data centre. See hosting and data residency.
