Our Software Experience:
Physician shortage will always be a problem in Florida, affecting doctors and more prominent hospitals, hospices, nursing homes, nurses, and resident doctors. The shortage would mean long working hours and more accurate medical coding and billing practices. However, implementing EMRs is proving to be of immense help since most of the paperwork is diminished, and doctors have real-time information about patients and other related data. Our coders and billers are experts in software such as Medisoft, Misys Tiger, eClinicalWorks, Advance MD, GE Centricity, and Altapoint.
Difficulties & Challenges Florida Physicians Face:
One of the unique challenges that physicians and healthcare providers in Florida deal with is the Florida Medicaid Institutional Care Program (ICP). This is because Florida has a large elderly population (65 years and older), which is projected to grow to nearly 26% of the state’s total population, the highest among all states in the US.
These elderly patients are either disabled or fighting chronic illnesses, making them frequent visitors to physicians’ offices and various hospitals. This fact, coupled with the recent healthcare reform, would ensure that health care providers are required to ensure accuracy and compliance with legal guidelines to avoid a drop in revenue or negative legal repercussions. Our medical billing specialists ensure that problems such as inadequate reimbursement due to claim denial and other related factors do not take their toll on your practice.
Our Medical Billers and Coders can improve your practice's efficiency by employing the best methods of optimally using your EMR. Their exposure to various Practice Management Systems also provides greater collections for your practice.
Consequently, majority of physicians are able to transfer non-core and exhaustive medical billing management, and intensify their focus on delivering efficient medical care to their patients.
