Top Line: CLX, a contact lens ordering and management system, and My Vision Express (MVE), a practice management and electronic health record (EHR) system, have integrated system upgrades that leverage cloud-based technology to help eyecare professionals (ECPs) streamline contact lens ordering, tracking, and marketing, from any computer in the practice.
Close Up: “Our long-standing partnership with CLX adds additional value to an already robust suite of features and services.” said Vipul Katyal, founder, president and CEO of My Vision Express. “Our new upgrades, combined with CLX 2.0 integration, allow MVE clients access to their practice management system from any machine, and an ability to seamlessly order contact lenses at the click of a button.”
“This integration not only simplifies ordering for MVE users, but also grants them access to the powerful reporting and marketing features of CLX 2.0,” added Jeremy Bono, CLX product manager. “These features include the Price Check Report, an updated “on-line” competitive pricing comparison to help users improve profitability; the Contact Lens Recall Report, a tool ECPs use to easily identify and contact patients due for lens reorders or re-examinations; and, numerous additional reports that can detail annual supplies sold, and most profitable modalities. Best of all, fitting metrics can be broken down by doctor, office and staff member, making the integrated features with MVE ideal for large or multi-office practices.”
Vital Stats: The My Vision Express practice management and certified electronic health record (EHR) software is a complete system that scales easily from single-office to multi-location eyecare practices. Features include an innovative point-of-sale (POS), patient communications, patient portal, diagnostic equipment integration, insurance billing, and powerful inventory management features. CLX System is a cloud-based management platform specifically designed to improve the efficiency and accuracy of contact lens administration as well as to provide valuable data and robust metrics reporting.
