In this opinion piece in JAMA Internal Medicine, it is cited that 35% of Medicare beneficiaries see 5 or more physicians, which may lead to medical errors, unnecessary visits, avoidable hospitalizations, and lower care outcomes. 34% of physicians reported that they seldom if ever receive useful information from the specialists they refer patients to. This is yet another example of the need for integrated data networks that work and go beyond assimilated EHRs. Acclivity can help you by alerting your providers to recent specialist visits - ask me how!

FMN Healthcare Management Services (FMN) had recently posted some of the drawbacks and concerns of Prior-Authorization in our industry, and how FMN could potentially alleviate some of the pain points in this area for our private physician partners. The survey statistics, in this article that relate to Patient Harm, Administrative Burdens and Wasted Health Resources, are staggering! I know we're "preaching to the choir" to many industry colleagues on this subject matter but can surely sympathize on the alter cost-savings effects and the impact on all those involved - primarily the patients! https://lnkd.in/ePAPGCVC #medicalbilling #practicemanagement #revenuecyclemanagement #insuranceclaims #priorauthorization

It's 90% cheaper to retain a patient than to recruit a new one, so let's discuss recall campaigns. Recall campaigns encourage patients to return to your health center. My former health center successfully implemented several recall campaigns and reached out to individuals who met specific criteria by sending letters or making phone calls. A recall strategy ensures they schedule appointments, preventing gaps in care, treatment plans, or medication continuity. Some of our criteria: 1⃣ They hadn't been in for a year but were still getting prescription refills from their provider. 2⃣ Patients who hadn't had a routine checkup in over a year. 3⃣ Patients who hadn't had their teeth cleaned in more than six months. 4⃣ Patients with two or more chronic diseases hadn't been seen in 6 months. 5⃣ Patients whose A1C was higher than nine at their last appointment. Numerous other factors can prompt the recall of an existing patient, which can be highly effective in encouraging them to book an appointment. One effective method of encouraging patients to schedule another appointment is to have a clinical assistant, nurse, or clinical support staff member contact them via phone. Even if the patient doesn't answer the call and only receives the message, they're more likely to take action and schedule the appointment than if they had not received a prompt. Mail, email, and portal messages are also great ways to get information to the patient. These messages allow staff to provide more details than leaving a message, so they're an excellent way to communicate with a patient. Text messages are also very effective and can be sent using texting software to decrease manual staff time. Patient recalls are essential to keeping your patients returning. These strategies will improve patient retention and increase patient satisfaction. It'll also help your health center avoid losing money on missed appointments and ensure patients get the necessary care. #FQHC #CHC #PatientRecall #HealthcareEngagement #PatientRetention #EffectiveRecalls

As a healthcare professional, I have seen firsthand the devastating consequences that medication errors can have on patients. It is an issue that affects people of all ages and backgrounds, and it is our collective responsibility to address it. During the interview, of Dr. Awad Al-Omari،MD,EMBA on Rotana Channel, he emphasized the importance of medicationsafety. Highlighting the global scale of this issue, he discussed various initiatives and best practices from other countries that have successfully tackled medication safety. It was encouraging to see that we can learn from one another and collaborate to improve patient outcomes on a global scale. In conclusion, the interview shed light on the critical importance of medication safety and the need for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and patients to work together in addressing this issue. By implementing robust systems, enhancing technology, promoting patient education, and fostering collaboration, we can make great strides in ensuring the safety and well-being of individuals worldwide. Together, we can make a meaningful impact and strive for a future where every patient receives safe and effective medication treatment. #MedicationSafety #PatientSafety #Healthcare
