For Practicing Physicians

​San Antonio Management and Billing Services

These days healthcare has become much more than a physician seeing his patients, taking care of their needs, and then going home for the day. Healthcare has evolved into a very intricate and complex world. It takes more time and effort than ever to manage your practice and see your patients efficiently, thanks to hurdles such as human resource compliance, billing regulations and compliance, PQRS, ERx, new regulatory requirements (HIPAA 5010 and ICD-10), and meaningful use requirements and the push towards Electronic Health Records (EHR). Physicians and practices that do not move towards EHR face penalties each year beginning at 2% and currently increasing up to 7%.
