ASPCBill and AutoBill

Download ASPCBill and AutoBill, the design specification for DBC's online interface for automatic charges entry. If you have purchased a third-party product which provides a DBC compatible ASCII billing transaction file, you can call DBC to get your free copy of ASPCBill. ASPCBill allows charges (procedures) to be entered automatically in batch mode, eliminating human intervention at the keyboard.

DBC's Open Architecture Design Specs

In today's "Best of Breed" software market, it is far less important that software is designed and written by one company.  In fact, most software companies that try to be too many things to too many people end up diluting their effort and they ultimately produce inferior systems.  AS/PC(R) is a practice management system.  It is not an EMR system and it probably never will be.  There are already hundreds of companies that produce EMR systems and for DBC to expend energy on this would probably produce a less than desirable result for the entire company and our clients.   The smartest companies know this so they design interfaces between their products and third-party vendors.

Many years of programming experience, dating back to the early 1960's, has taught our software architects the importance of providing an "open architecture" external design specification for other vendors to use to "talk" with our systems. 

Windows provides us with a new level of interface capability via Object Linking and Embedding (OLE). For example, our users can create their patient notes, letters, etc., in their favorite Windows word processor (we do not care which one); and DBC's implementation of Microsoft's OLE makes the interface to these documents from within our software completely automatic!

The important difference with DBC's software (versus most of our competition) is that our systems do not merely work with these third-party products, in many cases the third-party vendors have created a special custom interface to our systems!

DBC has provided detail design specifications for third-party software/hardware vendors who wish to interface with DBC's billing systems.
