How to Split the Health Care Dollar (America's Health Insurance Plans Meeting)
|
| Health insurers want to leave the status-quo fee-for-service payment behind. What must doctors do to get a piece of the pie?
Health plans' ideas about how to improve healthcare financing will mean major changes for physicians, wherever they practice. For employed physicians or those who are part of an integrated delivery system, those changes may be happening already, without physicians making a conscious choice to jump into new payment models.
For small practices, the choice is whether to say yes to new practice and payment models, wait for a health plan to force the issue, or try a third path of maintaining the status quo. As health insurers talk about paying for "value" and "outcomes," physicians must decide whether to take on financial risks that can come with the new models, and whether to invest time and technological resources into becoming medical homes or accountable care organizations. For some physicians, those changes might appear to come at too high a cost, and the cooperation required may look like loss of independence.

Fear of EHRs Being Wrong Leads Doctors to Code E&M Services Manually
|
| Despite the fact that most electronic health record systems can assist physicians in assigning codes for evaluation and management services, most Medicare physicians still do it manually.
The Dept. of Health and Human Services Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology asked the Office of the Inspector General to prepare a report looking at how Medicare physicians use EHRs to assign and document codes for E&M services. The report found that 57% of Medicare physicians use an EHR, and 90% of them use their systems to document E&M services. But most physicians still assign those codes manually, which could mean they are undercoding services that could qualify for a higher pay rate.

Eight Mistakes That Can Sink Your Practice Web site
|
| "I have plenty of patients. Why do I need a Web site?"
That's a very common mindset among many doctors, but it's missing the point of why it's important to have a Web site.
There are several other benefits to having a Web site, including lowering your administrative costs; spending less time on the phone answering routine questions; and increasing the number of loyal, engaged patients. Today, some patients won't even see a doctor who doesn't have a Web site, because they don't think he or she is up to date technologically.
But the Internet is rife with physician Web sites that not only accomplish nothing, but also make the physician practice look bad because the site is unprofessional. Or, conversely, you can see that the site took a lot of work and money, but it does nothing besides sit there, draining the physician's monthly budget.

Use of Surgical Robots Booming Despite Hefty Cost
|
| The da Vinci, a surgical robot costing up to $2.6 million, gives surgeons powerful new abilities in the operating room. But while some doctors tout shorter recovery times for patients and decreased risk of complications, others warn of high costs and the lack of a national training standard.
Dr. John Lenihan sits at a computer console about 20 feet from his hysterectomy patient lying on the operating table.
As if playing a video game, Lenihan manipulates foot pedals and joysticks as he watches the action on a screen, remotely controlling tiny instruments on robotic arms inserted into her abdomen through small incisions.

Primary Care Doctor Pay Jumps Past $200K as Reform, Market Push New Pay Methods
|
| Compensation of primary care physicians - now at more than $200,000 - grew at a faster rate than specialists over the last five years, a sign that those who hire health professionals are putting a greater emphasis on lower cost outpatient care, a new study shows. The analysis of physician pay by the Medical Group Management Association indicates a greater shift to lower-cost primary care as employers, insurance companies and government health programs try to provide financial incentives to health professionals who work in outpatient care settings.

| The nation's hospitals hailed President Barack Obama's signing of the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act on Monday as the right step to address the nation's drug-shortage problem.
"With nearly 100% of hospitals reporting shortages, access to life-saving drugs is essential," Richard Umbdenstock, president and CEO of the American Hospital Association (PDF), said in a statement. "The law will help hospitals obtain that critical access."
