Independent ASCs who don't adopt EHRs risk falling behind the competition, according to Eye Care Leaders, a practice management system for ophthalmology-centered ASCs.
The company shared the following tips and benefits of adopting EHRs for ASCs on their blog:
1. EHR systems improve care coordination, increase patient safety and help with regulatory compliance.
2. EHRs and practice management software make tracking financial records easier, allowing ASC leaders to find and address potential problems.
3. Data is easier to manage after adopting EHRs and practice management systems, making benchmarking and payer rate negotiating much easier.
