 | It's not enough that medical practices are faced with complicated regulatory changes, such as HIPAA compliance, Medicare, drug costs, reimbursement, liability insurance; but also medical practices have the continuing internal management of patient records, scheduling, insurance verification, encounter handling, order entry, coding, billing, insurance filing, note taking, dictation, transcription and...Whew!
Then medical practices have personnel, payroll and benefits management, supplies and equipment purchasing and inventory, receivables, payables, information technology, and the list goes on.
Any medical practice must consider these important questions:
- When do you have time to step back and assess your practice; to know you are giving the best patient care possible without wasteful costs eroding your profitability?
- Do you have effective policies, processes and procedures implemented and do you apply them fairly and consistently?
- How well does your computer system enable doctors and staff to be most efficient in your practice?
- Are your billing practices error free and giving you top return on your efforts?
- Is your coding accuracy 99.9%?
- Is surgery scheduling a vicious cycle of repeat scheduling attempts with both doctors and patients losing?
- Are you considering installing your own imaging unit?
- Do you have measurement systems in place to see if and where you are progressing toward goals?
- What is your plan for future growth, new capabilities, new revenue, and, if not lower costs, more value for your costs?
