TRAKnet 3.0 New Client Training Plan

Below you will find the breakdown of the New Client Training Plan for all new users of TRAKnet 3.0.

The below information further details the TRAKnet 3.0 New Client Training Plan

Introduction

TRAKnet 3.0 New Client Training consists of both live 1:1 remote sessions and pre-recorded videos and webinars. The Training process will consist of eleven (11) 1:1 sessions which in total will be completed over the course of 10 weeks. You and your Implementation Coordinator will work together to determine a training day and time. During this time each week you will meet with one of our trainers. Please plan an hour for each session.

As with any new technology there is a learning curve. Please remember that your experience during this learning curve will depend upon your efforts. Here are a few helpful hints to facilitate the process:

  • We strongly recommend that you dedicate both the time and the focus to making this learning curve as brief as possible. Please try to avoid distractions during the time with your trainer.
  • Remember to keep realistic expectations. When things are new, they can easily frustrate us. But keep a positive attitude.
  • Come prepared to each session with your trainer. He/she is here to help you.

Below is a brief description of each training class:

  • Program Setup: This class will provide a brief overview of how to navigate in TRAKnet 3.0. We will also cover how to set up various options in the program, enter users & providers, locations, referring providers, and insurances.
  • Charting: This class will cover creating and customizing templates as well as creating a note using a template. During the class we will also detail the encounter screen itself.
  • Billing- Setup: This class will cover entering insurances, patients, and treatment codes, as well as how to enter pricing information. We will also go through entering necessary billing information such as TriZetto data, doctor, insurance, and practice and location specific billing information.
  • Billing: During this class you will learn how to create a claim as well as how to send claims. We will also go over the steps necessary to split claims.
  • Test File 1 & 2: This class is intended to assist the practice in sending claims to TriZetto. TriZetto requires that a test batch of claims be sent before being placed into production. This class will be held in two sessions. During the first session the trainer will assist in sending the test file. The second session is then intended to review the test file results and assist in correcting any errors.
  • Billing- Posting Payments: During this class, you will learn how to enter both patient and insurance payments into TRAKnet 3.0
  • Meaningful Use: This class is a step by step overview of Meaningful Use objectives, both core and menu set. It will cover whichever stage of Meaningful Use the practice will be completing.

Interspersed throughout the live 1:1 sessions will be a number of pre-recorded videos and webinars. Many of these recordings serve as a supplement to the 1:1 trainings, while other videos will provide information not covered during your time with the trainer.

In addition to the recordings and 1:1 remote training the practice will also be required to complete six (6) training evaluations during the training process. These evaluations will consist of 5-6 short questions which will cover the major topics.

Below you will find a breakdown of each week and the members of the practice who should attend or view each training, as well as a link to the training videos.
