Healthcare Professionals

Integrated Business Technologies (IBT), an Oklahoma-based I.T. Service Provider, understands and provides resolutions to Physicians, Practice Managers and other Health Care professionals needing assistance with collection, storage, management and security of healthcare and patient data.

A recent survey of more than 2000 Practice Managers completed by the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) reports these top challenges:

  • Operating costs rising more rapidly than revenues.
  • Maintaining Physician compensation levels as revenues continue to decline.
  • Selecting and implementing an Electronic Health Records (EHR) system.

Additional dynamics that medical professionals should be considering:

  • $ 20+ Billion Health Information Technology Act for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH)
  • HITECH Committee’s ability to define “meaningful use” of EHR systems
  • Third party payers requesting complete documentation for physician reimbursement
  • ICD-9 coding format changes to ICD-10 by October of 2013
  • Current and future reduction of Medicare/Medicaid reimbursements
  • Compliance with all Federal and State regulations, including HIPPA
