The Work Your Team Does in eMDs, We Staff
What Is eMDs Today?
eMDs began as an Austin-based ambulatory EHR and practice management company and was acquired by CompuGroup Medical, the German health-IT group, in December 2020. The eMDs brand now lives inside CGM’s US product family: CGM APRIMA, the flagship mobile-friendly EHR and practice management platform; CGM eMDs, carrying the Solution Series heritage many long-time users still call Chart and Bills; and the billing-centric CGM MEDISOFT and CGM LYTEC practice management systems that thousands of smaller offices and billing services run on.
For practices, the rebrand years have had a real cost: product names changed, support channels moved to cgm.com, and the in-office staff who knew the old system by heart have been retiring or leaving faster than replacements can learn it. The queues did not get the memo. Eligibility responses, authorization requests, claim rejections, and unposted remits still need daily hands, whichever CGM logo is on the login screen. That is the gap this service closes.
Who Is This For?
Small and midsize ambulatory practices on any system in the eMDs family: solo and independent primary care offices on CGM eMDs, multi-specialty groups on CGM APRIMA, and the billing-desk-driven offices and billing companies running CGM MEDISOFT or CGM LYTEC. It fits a solo practice that needs one trained assistant as well as a group that needs a full billing desk plus front-office coverage.
Where eMDs Practices Lose Time and Money
Long-tenured eMDs and MEDISOFT users carry years of workarounds in their heads. When one retires or resigns, claims knowledge walks out the door and the queue backs up within a week.
eMDs to CGM eMDs, Aprima to CGM APRIMA, new portals, new support paths. Each transition eats staff hours that were supposed to go to eligibility, auths, and follow-up.
Claims go out, rejections and denials come back, and in a two-person office the follow-up work loses to the front desk every single day. AR over 90 grows quietly.
Unbilled encounters, unposted remits, and aging by payer only catch revenue leaks if someone opens those reports on a schedule. In most small offices, no one owns that calendar.
Front Office and Patient Records
Our team registers new patients and keeps your eMDs records clean: demographics, insurance entry, responsible party, contacts, and pharmacy details, entered right the first time in CGM APRIMA or CGM eMDs. In billing-centric MEDISOFT and LYTEC offices, accurate patient and plan setup is the difference between a clean first pass and a rejection, so we treat registration as revenue work, not clerical work.
Scheduling and Patient Communication
What can a remote assistant actually do in your eMDs schedule? Build and maintain appointments, keep provider templates full, prep daily schedules, and make confirmation, recall, and reschedule calls in your practice’s name. Small offices feel no-shows harder than anyone; a steadily worked recall list is often the cheapest revenue a solo practice can add.
Eligibility and Insurance Verification
We verify coverage before the visit, work the eligibility responses your eMDs system returns, call the payers that need a phone call, and enter plan detail correctly the first time. Eligibility mistakes are one of the quietest sources of denials in small-practice billing, and they are entirely preventable when someone owns the verification queue every morning.
Prior Authorization
Our specialists initiate, document, and track authorizations for the services your practice orders and bills, follow every request to closure, and keep auth status visible to your billers so pre-auth services never slip through to submission. In a small office, prior auth is the task that always gets interrupted; giving it a dedicated owner is how it stops generating denials.
Referral Coordination
We triage incoming referrals and faxed records daily, index documents to the right chart, call the patient, and schedule, then log every item on a shared tracker your team can audit each evening. Referrals that used to sit for days get worked the day they arrive, and your providers stop hearing “we never got the fax” from the practice down the street.
Medical Billing and RCM
Can you outsource eMDs billing? Yes, and this is where most eMDs conversations start. Dedicated billers work claims end to end inside your own system, whether that is CGM APRIMA, CGM eMDs, CGM MEDISOFT, or CGM LYTEC: charge review, claim edits, submission, rejection and denial follow-up, remit posting, patient statements, AR and aging work, and daily reconciliation. For the full picture of our revenue cycle service, see Outsourced Revenue Cycle Management Services.
Documentation and Inbox Support
We support providers’ documentation workflow without touching clinical judgment: routing incoming documents and faxes to the right chart and owner, keeping the document queue moving, and triaging messages so providers only see what needs a provider. This is administrative support, not scribing, and the boundary is written into the SOW.
Reports, Work Queues, and Admin
We run the reports that catch revenue leaks in an eMDs practice: unbilled encounters, unposted remits, rejection trends, and aging by payer, on a calendar someone on our team actually owns. Your administrator gets numbers they did not have to build, and problems surface in week one instead of at year end.

Book Your 2-Week Free TrialHow Our Teams Train and Go Live on eMDs
Before anyone touches your production system, your team trains on your workflows: your SOPs, recorded walkthroughs of your eMDs setup and version, and our internal SOP library and AI training simulator that drills EMR screens and revenue cycle scenarios in a safe environment. Go-live is supervised, production is reported to you every evening in your own format, and a trained backup shadows the account so coverage never depends on one person again, which is usually the exact problem an eMDs office is trying to solve. Every specialist works under an individual HIPAA agreement with named, auditable credentials, never shared logins.
Why Outsource eMDs Work, and Why Staffingly
Most vendors sell eMDs billing or a virtual assistant. We staff across the workflow: front office, eligibility, auths, referrals, billing, and reporting, so work stops falling between vendors.
CompuGroup sells its own RCM program, ARIA RCM Services, for practices that want the vendor to take over billing. Practices that want a flat weekly fee per dedicated specialist they direct inside their own system, across the front office as well as billing, choose a dedicated team. Do the math both ways; we will help on the call.
Rebrands, version upgrades, staff turnover: your dedicated team and its trained backup stay constant while the product family shifts around you, so institutional knowledge stops walking out the door.

eMDs Outsourcing: Frequently Asked Questions
Which eMDs and CompuGroup systems do you support?
The family that grew out of eMDs: CGM APRIMA, CGM eMDs (the Solution Series heritage), CGM MEDISOFT, and CGM LYTEC. We train on your version and your customizations, not a generic build.
Is eMDs still supported now that it is part of CompuGroup Medical?
Yes. CompuGroup Medical acquired eMDs in December 2020 and continues to sell and support the product family under CGM branding. Our service is about staffing your queues on whichever of those systems you run.
What tasks can a virtual assistant do in an eMDs system?
Registration and demographics, appointment building and recall calls, eligibility checks, insurance entry, prior authorization tracking, referral indexing and scheduling, claim follow-up, remit posting support, and report runs. Anything administrative that happens inside the system, a trained remote assistant can own.
Can you outsource eMDs medical billing?
Yes. Dedicated billers work inside your CGM APRIMA, CGM eMDs, CGM MEDISOFT, or CGM LYTEC: charge review, claim edits, submission, rejections, denials, remit posting, statements, AR, and daily reconciliation, with production reported every evening.
How is this different from ARIA RCM Services?
ARIA RCM Services is CompuGroup’s own RCM program and covers the billing side. Our model is a flat weekly fee per dedicated specialist you direct, and it can cover the whole administrative surface, front office through reporting. Many practices compare both; we will walk through the numbers with you.
How do your staff access our system?
Through named individual user accounts you approve, with least-privilege roles, MFA, and full audit logging. No shared logins, no offline exports of PHI.
How fast can a dedicated eMDs team start?
Typically live in 14 days: access setup, workflow training on your SOPs, then supervised production. The engagement starts with a 2-Week Free Trial.
Do we keep control of our eMDs system?
Yes. It stays your system, your data, your logins to grant or revoke. We work inside it and report daily; you can review our activity in your own system.
