Benefits
Med ProFiles Quantifiable Benefits:
Distinguished Preventive Care
Protocols list recommendations that serve as procedural guidelines in health screening
for each patient group. Implementing these protocols will increase income by as much as
$200 per patient. Physicians who see patients 20 days a month will generate an additional
$48,000 annually when applying this ethical and conscientious practice to only one
patient per day.
Automated Recalls and Reminders
accurately prompt return visits without the potential for omissions, and with
significantly improved compliance. When conservatively estimating $50 per day in increased
revenue from otherwise missed appointments or follow-up laboratory or radiology studies,
physicians who see patients 20 days per month will generate an additional $12,000
annually.
Practice Enhancing Reports let you identify
and target patients and patient groups, structure referral bases, and provide the
strategic information that you need to evaluate and plan for the growth of your practice.
Elimination of Transcription
Charges can save at least $1,200 per month or $14,400 every year.
Elimination of Referral Paperwork can save
the cost of one full time employee. At an hourly wage of $12.00, this will save a
minimum of $24,960 per year excluding taxes and employee benefits.
Consistent, comprehensive documentation and
on-line alerts for drug to drug, drug to allergy, and drug to disease interactions will
greatly reduce potential for Malpractice claims.
Paperless Office greatly
reduces the expenses associated with file cabinets, folders, forms, labels, paper, and
storage. E-mail and faxes eliminate the cost of printing letterheads, envelopes, and
prescription blanks, and significantly lower the cost of postage. In an office where paper
products, printing services, storage and retrieval, and postage cost a minimum of $600 per
month, electronic medical records can save at least $7,200 annually.
Saving Money By Saving Time
Automatic Documentation of office surgeries and
procedures.
Automatic Dialing to patients, physicians, and
pharmacies.
Patient specific Referral Directories and Formularies
eliminate the time wasting need to refer to manuals and bulletins.
A physician who saves even five minutes per
patient and sees twenty patients a day, twenty days a month, will save a total of 400
hours annually. At an average of $350 per hour, that saved time is worth $140,000 a year.
Studies show that 30 to 35% of staff time is spent
looking for charts, reports, and results. A physician who pays a three person full time
office staff each $10 per hour will save 35% of $62,400 or $21,840, i.e., more than the
cost of one of his full time employees.
Clearing inactive charts for storage once a year
requires the time of three staff members for up to three days. A physician who pays three
staff members each $10 per hour will save $720 a year by not having to purge inactive
charts.
