Solutions

Problem:

Physicians are frustrated with the inefficiencies of operating their practices. Their staffs are inundated with time ravaging tasks such as locating patient charts and searching for lab and X-ray reports. These frustrations have exploded after the enormous growth of managed care wherein reimbursement for services has plummeted by 25 to 35%.

Dedicated patient care is continually being interrupted by frivolous administrative paperwork, non-medical telephone calls, and the need for constant reference to insurance company manuals, directories, and formularies. Ever growing overhead has forced physicians into a frantic rush to see greater numbers of patients in shorter periods of time, and physicians are leaving their practices because they cannot balance overhead and income.
