Automatically Email Critical Data

If you could have a one-page email of practice information delivered daily, what would be on that page?  If you could send a separate one-page email to your physicians weekly, what would you tell them?  Don’t rely on team members to remember to run reports, push key practice metrics to them via email.  Send your physicians producitivity reports.  Help the call center fill unsold appointments.  Tell your front desk how they collected copayments yesterday.  Change your practice by changing the way you send data.

Discover Hidden Trends

Where is the next opportunity for your practice to find new patients, act on referral patterns, or capture lost revenue?  How does this month compare with last month and last year?  Why are charges increasing or payments decreasing?   See information your PM/EHR won’t show you on canned reports, but will help you run your business.  Empower front line managers, clinical teams, the buisness office, and providers with current data and friendly tools to make better decisions.

Better Decisions: Applications for Medical Practice Managers

How can cab drivers, golfers, and poker players change the way we think about making decisions in medical practices?

Front Loading Your Revenue Cycle: Using Appointment Data to Drive Performance

Your revenue cycle starts long before a patient steps foot into your clinic.  How can scheduling and templating strategies impact your financial performance?  What are smart practice administrators doing now that they were not doing just a few years ago to better manage patient appointments?  Certainly, no show appointments are part of the equation, but what about patient appointments that are never filled?  How are practices prioritizing patient appointments to fill surgery slots or to impact ancillary revenue?  How would your practice be different if you could see this data, easily and automatically?

How much of your revenue cycle can be influenced before a patient even walks through your door?  What proactive actions can practice administrators take to front-load revenue cycle success?  Think of things like reducing no shows, ensuring procedures have pre-authorization, and filling open appointment slots, but there is much more.  Have you considered an appointment scrubber that can data mine upcoming appointments for potential issues such as patients in a collection status, patients with insurance plan issues, patients with scheduling problems, or patients in a global period?
