This is far from glamorous and can get rather confusing if you don't have the right system in place. The Dr. Rounds app has been created to work with the Cloud in order to streamline your entire billing process. Doctors can literally tap on the screen in order to keep track of their charges and then the billing staff can then take this information straight from the app. The information is stored in real-time so the billing staff has access to it as it is happening.

• Doctors tap on the screen to record charges
