GLACEEMR | PODIATRY EHR
The Podiatry EHR Built Around How Your Practice Works
GlaceEMR is ONC-certified and has run in private podiatry practices for decades, with 25+ years of company history behind it. The podiatry configuration is wired in before training starts, so the chart your team opens on day one already knows the diabetic-foot exam, the at-risk classification, the wound flowsheets, and the procedure templates your day runs on.
- Podiatry templates and workflows configured before training starts
- GlaceScribe ambient notes and GlaceIQ suggestions you review and approve
- ONC-certified, with $0 implementation and data migration included

WHAT WE HEAR FROM PODIATRY PRACTICES
The Coverage Rule Is the Whole Game, and the Chart Misses It
Routine foot care denies
Medicare covers 11055 to 11057 and 11719 and 11721 only with a qualifying systemic condition, a documented at-risk finding, and the right Q modifier. One missing piece and the claim denies, the patient gets billed, and Monday morning is spent on the phone.
The wound record has no trend
Length, width, depth, tissue type, and dated photographs have to show change over time to support the debridement code. Most platforms make this a separate workflow, so six weeks later there is no visual trend to defend the 11043 you billed in week three.
DME paperwork eats the afternoon
Diabetic shoes, AFOs, walking boots, and custom orthotics each carry their own CMN, necessity threshold, and form. Get one piece wrong and the order does not ship, the patient walks out empty-handed, and the DME revenue sits on the table.
Modifiers are unforgiving
Toe modifiers T1 to TA and T5 to T9, side modifiers LT and RT, and the 59, XS, and XU rules CMS keeps tightening. Get the toe or side wrong and the claim denies, and across a panel a meaningful share of revenue is lost to mismatches your scrubber never caught.
HOW GLACEEMR HELPS
An EHR Built Around the Foot Exam, the Wound Record, and the Coverage Rule
GlaceEMR is ONC-certified and has run in private podiatry practices for decades, with 25+ years of company history behind it. The podiatry configuration is wired in before training starts, so the chart your team opens on day one already knows the diabetic-foot exam, the at-risk classification, the wound flowsheets, and the procedure templates your day runs on. Every capability below ships in the platform today, not as a roadmap promise.
Structured diabetic-foot exam
Monofilament testing per site, vibration, dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial pulses, ABI, skin and nail condition, deformity, and the protective sensation map, all captured as discrete fields. Your at-risk class for the year is derived from the structured findings, so the documentation that decides coverage lives where the next visit and the auditor both look.
At-risk classification and Q-modifier prompts
The chart computes the at-risk class from the documented findings and surfaces the Q modifier the routine-care claim requires (Q7, Q8, or Q9) at charge entry. Missing systemic-condition or class-finding documentation prompts you for the specific element the LCD needs while the patient is still in the room, not after a denial four weeks later.
Wound record with photo trending
Length, width, depth, drainage, tissue type, undermining, tunneling, Wagner and University of Texas staging, and dated photographs against the same wound record across visits. Side-by-side comparison shows the healing trajectory at a glance, supporting both the debridement code by depth and the advanced wound-care authorization when the wound stalls.
Procedure templates with supply capture
Nail avulsion and matrixectomy, debridement by depth, callus paring, wart treatment, biopsy, injection, and minor surgery. Each template captures site by toe and laterality, anesthesia, technique, and supply use as discrete data, with the right modifier guidance surfaced before the encounter closes.
DME ordering with prefilled necessity
Diabetic therapeutic shoes and inserts, custom AFOs, walking boots, surgical shoes, and custom orthotics. Each DME order generates the right CMN and the payer-specific necessity letter, prefilled from the diabetic-foot exam and the at-risk classification already in the chart, ready to sign and submit before the patient leaves.
In-office X-ray, PACS, and vascular studies
In-office plain films and outside MRIs viewable in the chart with a full DICOM viewer, plus ABI, PVR, and segmental pressures flowing from the device as discrete data attached to the diabetic-foot exam. Post-op fracture progression and Charcot architecture read alongside the wound photographs on the same screen.

QUESTIONS WE HEAR
Podiatry EHR FAQ
Does GlaceEMR handle routine-foot-care coverage documentation and Q modifiers?
Yes. The chart captures the diabetic-foot exam, the systemic-condition documentation, and the class A, B, and C findings as discrete data, then derives the at-risk class for the calendar year and surfaces the right Q modifier (Q7, Q8, or Q9) on the routine-foot-care claim. If the documentation is incomplete, the chart prompts you for the specific element the LCD requires before the encounter closes.
Is GlaceScribe HIPAA-compliant, and how does it handle toe and side modifiers?
Yes, fully HIPAA-compliant. GlaceScribe runs on HIPAA-compliant AI infrastructure from Amazon, Google, Anthropic, Deepgram, ElevenLabs, and other enterprise AI providers, all under business associate agreements. The multi-vendor architecture preserves operational redundancy, so a single upstream incident does not stop your visits.
How does the wound record support the debridement code and the advanced wound-care authorization?
The wound record holds length, width, depth, drainage, tissue type, periwound condition, undermining, tunneling, Wagner and University of Texas staging, and dated photographs against the same record across visits. The debridement code (11042 for skin and subcutaneous, 11043 for muscle or fascia, 11044 for bone, 11045 to 11047 for additional 20 square centimeter increments) is supported by the structured depth and area in the chart. When a wound stalls against expected trajectory, GlaceIQ flags it and the documentation packet for cellular and tissue-based product authorizations assembles from the same chart, so the advanced wound-care order goes out with the trajectory evidence the payer needs on first submission instead of after a denial.
