Aprima EHR for Endocrinology
The biggest problem is as Endocrinology providers become hospital employees, their allegiance shifts from the patient to the corporate (or Government) bottom line. Endocrinology providers are no longer professionals — Endocrinology specialists are employees that will do the bidding of their employer, the hospital/government. Endocrinology providers are losing their ability to choose the method and specific products to use in their procedures as these decisions are now made by the hospitals and the government-run insurance policies.
Why should you pick Aprima as your Endocrinology EHR? With the changes in healthcare it is becoming harder for Endocrinology providers to stay independent. The Medicare reimbursement cuts to key surgery procedures like Thyroid Ultrasound, industry challenges like ICD-10, MACRA, MIPS, PQRS, Population Health and rising costs have pushed many Endocrinology providers right out of private practice. In fact, only 32% work in private practice today in 2016 versus 60% in 2007. It is sad that Endocrinology providers helps people enjoy day-to-day life, but suffer themselves with the stress of healthcare changes. Healthcare is moving away from fee for service to performance-based incentives, and that is why Endocrinologists need an Electronic Health Records system like Aprima that collects data and aggregates that data to help Endocrinology. Adding to the strain, administrative tasks and outdated technology, such as EMRs that require bridges to practice management or scheduling software, are consuming more and more time. Due to its complexity, Endocrinology providers has some of the most demanding documentation and billing requirements, so it’s no wonder that 33% of Endocrinology physicians spend over 15 hours a week on administrative tasks.
