Patient related problems form the core of our profession and we all
love taking care of them. Non-core issues such as the increasingly
complex reimbursement procedures and HIPAA compliancy are taking up
a lot of our time and energy. While every business has some non-core
issues, ours has highest non-core to core ratio.
The good news is that, technology can greatly help in complying
with these non-core issues. Electronic Medical Records, practice
management software, online medical transcription, medical coding
and billing are tools that can help with practice efficiency and
even increased revenue.
As a cardiologist, I was on faculty at a major medical center in
New York City. During practice, I had my share of problems with
dictating reports. Mostly because; the transcriptions were of poor
quality. Invariably, they required repeated corrections before being
filed. In the early 1990’s, we tried the earliest versions
of the voice recognition software and that was a disaster. In the
mid 1990's, I designed a few templates and document management software
for our internal use, but they could never be patient specific.
That's when; I took interest in medical transcription as business
process.
It was clear to me that while technology can greatly help the transcription
process; the key is to have skilled transcriptionists in an enabling
environment with proper training and tools. I teamed up with a reputed
NJ based information technology firm (i2t2 Inc.) and Founded Global
Health Pros a Business process Outsourcing company specializing
in Health care industry.
Based in Edison NJ, Global Health Pros provides practice solutions
to physicians and hospitals across the country. We put together
a core group of excellent MTs along with a management and an IT
team. We focused on accuracy, document management process and customer
satisfaction. With in house training facilities, we now have a fantastic
group of people who can take up transcription volume of up to 200,000
lines per day and deliver more than 98% accurate reports consistently.
Our IT team perfected the web enabled document management software
that can interface with any hospital data management system.
I invite you to talk to us about our process, solutions and how
we can save money for you and achieve quick TAT.
Thank you
