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.”
