Welcome to the free 2017 RBRVS Calculator. Important update: there are some considerable updates to the RBRVS data this year, especially in the GPCI figures! More details to follow this week.
Ever find a dollar bill in your pocket? Bonus! Today's episode is just like that...I was searching through my pile of data files looking for something when I stumbled upon an analysis I put together last year but forgot to share: does appointment dep...
A little over a week ago I gave my standard "Pediatric Benchmarks" talk (newly updated with some fascinating clinical benchmarks!) and I found myself summarizing the two or three most important measures I use when consulting for practices. I suppose ...
A few weeks ago, I was exchanging emails with Dr. Suzanne Berman in TN about...geeze, I don't even know any more. Something mildly technical and nerdy relating to pediatric practice management.
Whew, it's been a busy month. The big ticket item was, of course, the Supergroup conference. 85 of you, many of whom read this blog, were there, so you are welcome to refute (or support!) my summary of events.
Just this morning on SOAPM, someone asked what some good financial benchmarks are for pediatricians...and it looks like AudioEducator has already asked me to teach a class on the subject. Good timing.
PCC's A1 Coding Resource, Jan, shared with me some interesting data today. She has kept track of her chart audits dating back to 2008 and wondered what the results looked like. The E&M results are fascinating.
I had a great time speaking to Drs. Bravo and Rogu on their growing podcast, The Pediatric Lounge, to discuss the state of independent pediatricians and the use of data in a pediatric practice. They are cranking out episodes (which is a good thing) and anyone who supports independent pediatricians should tune in to their effort. What they are doing takes a tremendous amount of work and their guest list is amazing (well, besides me). They turned our conversation into back-to-back episodes (32 and 33), "Independent Pediatric Practice 2022" and "Data Data Data and Managing a Pediatric Office." If you prefer video, you catch up on their YouTube channel.
