Physicians are faced with a medical economic crisis today. Aging business systems, declining reimbursement, utilization oversight, increased demands from patients, and inefficient process flow impact the bottom line. Physicians must either maximize reimbursement and/or reduce expenses to maintain or enhance their income level. An efficient business system based on the adoption of modern technology is a necessary prerequisite.

Status quo is no longer an option as potential income deterioration is a reality. Five years from now, physicians will view today’s disconcerting economic environment as one they yearn for.? That in itself is a prime reason to act now. While many practices are being acquired by hospitals and health systems, the stand-alone practice is a sustainable model with income-earning potential exceeding the employed physicians in the long term.
