What is the number one priority for physicians?
The answer is- delivery of quality patient care.
But do all physicians get paid for rendered
services? Are they equipped to support quality of
care with sound financial management?
Unfortunately, physicians in all specialties
across the US are struggling with some common

  • From challenges related to regulatory compliance
    and data analytics to the complexities of
    value-based care and patient engagement, there
    are various factors that will continue to haunt
    physicians in 2018.
  • Many healthcare practices will continue
    struggling with the implementation of value-based
    care models this year. They will be under
    pressure for figuring out how to implement the
    new models while operating under the existing fee
    structures. Value-based care will be a challenge
    because it requires significant investment of
    time and money. It also demands relevant data and
    insights along with a different workflow and
    infrastructure.

  • Physicians will have to comply with several
    uncertain and shifting government requirements
    and mandates this year. It will become necessary
    for them to navigate through the shifting
    landscape of health policies while also paying
    attention to the federal and state-level
    government mandates. To comply with the changes,
    they will be required to strengthen compliance
    programs and also ensure that their advocacy
    efforts at the state level are on point.
  • Another challenge that physicians will have to
    face in 2018 is related to the leveraging of big
    data for improvement of care quality. There are
    many practices that continue to grapple with the
    task of finding meaning in big data. They are
    under the pressure to boost the use
    of EHR (Electronic Health Records) and also to
    identify ways for using extracted data for
    enhancing quality of care.

  • Practices will have to invest time in addressing
    issues related to shortage of skilled staff,
    turnover and physician burnout in 2018. It is
    being predicted that there will be a shortage of
    40,000 to 109,000 physicians by 2030. Since
    surveys show a significant number of physicians
    experiencing feelings of burnout, it will become
    quite difficult for practices to find skilled
    healthcare professionals.
  • Considering the growing focus on improving
    patient experience, physicians will be required
    to work hard on bettering patient engagement and
    satisfaction levels. They will have to make sure
    patients are happy in order to ensure better
    health outcomes and consistent cash flow.
