Marlboro, NJ (PRWEB) May 15, 2006 -- Dr.
Zelik Frischer has recently discovered a
treasure trove of free information about
medical billing at Billing
Wiki. Dr. Frischer, a Clinical Professor
at Stony Brook University and three times
named in New York Magazine's survey of the
best doctors in the Metropolitan Area recognizes
the growing complexity of medical billing
as an increasingly formidable challenge to
managing a successful practice. A new industry
of high-technology medical billing has mushroomed
under the auspices of its promise to streamline
the collections process and leave doctors
with more time to care for their patients.
Though many high-quality services and systems
exist, an overwhelming variety of options
and attractive (yet unsubstantiated) performance
claims from some providers have charmed busy
doctors into making poor strategic decisions
for their practices. "It is surprising how
many clinics use a 5-year ROI analysis to
justify an investment in technology that
will become obsolete in 2-3 years," says
Dr. Frischer.
BillingWiki offers fresh perspectives on
the complex and murky medical billing industry.
Articles like Dr. Glenn Laub's "The
Game of Medical Billing" expose the key
issues in an effort to help doctors make
strategically sound decisions for their medical
practices. "As a free, collaborative resource
open to the medical community," Dr. Frischer
says, "BillingWiki is an indispensable
guide. BillingWiki is the Wikipedia of medical
billing." BBC News has called Wikipedia "one
of the most reliably useful sources of information
around, on or off-line."
BillingWiki follows the Wikipedia example
and welcomes articles, edits, links, and
comments by physicians, billers, and practice
administrators. The website is the brainchild
of Dr. Yuval Lirov, author of Mission
Critical Systems Management (Prentice
Hall, 1997), and multiple patents in artificial
intelligence and computer security. The CEO
of Vericle,
a leader in medical billing technology and
EMR, Dr. Lirov is no newcomer to the challenges
physicians face in modernizing their practices.
He says the mission of BillingWiki is to
provide physicians with a shared knowledge-base
so that they can ask the right questions
when considering a billing system or service,
make the best decision for their practices,
and realize their ultimate goal of spending
more time with patients.
