The healthcare industry will continue to undergo massive change into the next decade. Three driving factors - information technology, global sourcing, and governmental regulation - will play dominant roles in reshaping nearly every facet of healthcare delivery. In this future, physicians will spend more time with patients, and less time and money on the administrative tasks of running of a clinic. Spending late nights and weekends to document patient encounters, follow-up on unpaid bills, haggle with insurance carriers, and manage large teams of clerical staff will be thing of the past. All of this will happen, without interruption and without forcing providers to suddenly change every aspect of how they deliver care overnight.
SMARTMD’s mission is to help physicians continuously improve the quality of care provided to patients, while reducing the cost and complexity of delivering those services. Information Technology will continue to play a vital role in healthcare, automating what were once manual and labor intensive processes. Combined with right sourcing of clerical functions such as transcriptions, billing, and collections, SMARTMD enables physicians to focus on patient care while driving out significant costs and headaches of running their clinics. |
