Today's medical doctor must be virtual jack of all trades in order to cope with health-care supplier shortages in the United States and Canada. The fact is, doctors are far from a dime a dozen: in fact, recent study showed that the massive doctor shortage in North America will continue to get worse and worse as the 21st century progresses.
This means that the average medical practice has almost guaranteed growth going forward. And although this is partly a good thing, this growth will not come without its pains. Each patient a medical doctor welcomes to his practice becomes another medical record or patient file which has its own set of administrative costs. Controlling these costs is at the heart of what Medical Software Associates' medical practice management system was designed for.
Inviting New Patients In
For many medical practices across North America not adopting a computerized electronic medical record system, adopting a new patient into the practice often creates an administrative headache. New records must be created manually, and filing procedures must ensure that the patient records fit into the current patient database. For practices still running on a paper medical record system, this means additional work for either the medical office manager, or an administrative assistant in charge of filing.
Medical Software Associates electronic medical practice management enables the doctor or medical office manager to dramatically streamline the process of adopting a new patient into the practice. By using standardized electronic medical records, data can be entered quickly via any networked PC, and an instant patient history can be created. Some of our clients boast a 50% or greater time-saving in this process, which is just one of the many built-in return on investment features our medical practice management provides.
An End To The Politics Of Paper
Medical practices using paper medical records are at a natural disadvantage to those currently using electronic medical records. The travel of the average patient file or medical record grows as the practice grows in size. Not only must the paper records be filed and re-filed whenever they are needed, they also are subject to being lost in the shuffle of everyday clinic business. As well, many medical practices are overextending there labor budget, or overextending their human or resources simply by using paper medical records.
Adopting an electronic medical record software package in conjunction with a medical practice management software system can save the average practice not only human labor cost and time, but also in sure that patient data is never lost.
The Medical Software Associates medical practice management system enables the doctor or medical assistant to call up any patient record from any networked PC in the practice. By simply installing a PC into each examination room, the doctor has access to complete patient histories with merely the click of a mouse.
Our medical office manager clients often report an immediate reduction in overall human resource costs and the ability to more effectively deploy their staff throughout the office. When the paper shuffle comes to an end, your medical practice will benefit: we guarantee this.
