LVM’s E-Centaurus software package includes a physician referral module; it is one component of their Marketing and Referral call center solution. E-Centaurus matches consumer preferences and health plan mandates with the physicians database to drive the referral or appointment-scheduling process. The software has 47 standard and 10 user-defined selection criteria upon which to match. Features include safe harbor tracking, ability to designate attributes as “Exact Match Only,” and the “Can’t Fill” function for tracking criteria combinations which cannot be satisfied by the physician database. The physician appointment feature supports appointment-setting at the time of the call.
