appointment frequency grow by 24% since engaging Affinity

Marlboro,
NJ (PRWEB) March 21, 2006 – Patients appreciate
excellent care and keep Dr. Makar’s schedule busy.
Dr. Gamil Makar, Family Medicine, St. Joseph’s Health
System in New Jersey, has seen his appointment frequency
grow by 24% since engaging Affinity
Billing. “To keep up with growing demand, our practice
management team must work like a clock,” says Dr. Makar. “High
patient volumes coupled with low administration costs mean
improved profitability.” 
Dr. Makar has joined hundreds of other doctors reaping the
benefits of Affinity Billing's unique approach to the hectic
and difficult practice management process. Since practice
management takes a backseat to patient care, work can be
sporadic, inconsistent, and unreliable. Affinity
Billing uses advanced technology to overcome these challenges.
“The key to full payments and low administrative overhead
is integrated practice workflow, tying together patient scheduling,
SOAP notes, and revenue cycle management,” says Dr.
Yuval Lirov, inventor of several patents in artificial intelligence
and computer security and author of “Mission Critical
Systems Management” book. “An intelligent scheduler
avoids billing errors, manages patient flow, helps maintain
regulatory compliance, alerts about unpaid balance, and expedites
referral and authorization management. Solid technology offloads
complexities of practice management and enables profitable
operations.”
