I'm trying to do a deep dive into immunization rates, but I pulled these two up-to-date views into the impact COVID is having on independent pediatric practices.
If all goes as planned, this will be my last static blog update about the financial clinical data relating to COVID and pediatricians. Why? Because we're hoping to fire up a public page soon that gets updated daily. Stay tuned.
I've got a lot to throw at you. Jan will have an updated COVID-19 coding guide to me shortly and she will be presenting for SOAPM in a week or so (links to follow). Dr. Joe Hagan, of Bright Futures fame, has a video about how to leverage Bright Futur...
Paul Vanchiere and I have spoken often about looking into "claim submission delays" when consulting with practices about their billing challenges. Ultimately, we are interested in narrowing that gap as much as possible for obvious reasons - slow clai...

Brief recap: last week I shared some results from an analysis we did with Rexer Analytics. Our goal was to look through nearly a million independent pediatric visits to find patterns that might help us predict no-shows.
Can you predict when a patient is going to no-show? Perhaps not perfectly, but you can with a lot more accuracy than you might think. I've split this blog update into two parts. Part II will follow after folks have had a few days to digest this one. ...

I've had a busy summer and just wrapped up my time at the Florida AAP chapter's "Future of Pediatrics" annual event. Thank you to those who stopped by to say hello! In a few short weeks, it will be time for the 2024 Pediatric CEO event, which I'm really excited for. I think there are a few seats left. I write, however, to draw your attention to two free resources that every pediatric practice should have bookmarked!
