Posted on September 22, 2020 by Meghan in Blog

Did you know – it's a myth that patients don't want to use telehealth!

When your practice has efficient processes and in-office practice is streamlined, then you are ready to embark on seeing patients with telemedicine. The COVID-19 pandemic has been the catalyst for growth in telemedicine, and it will be an essential tool for healthcare providers in the future.

Dr. Michael Greiwe, founder of OrthoLive and SpringHealthLive telemedicine platforms is my guest on this episode of Practice Management Nuggets For Your Healthcare Practice!

He’s going to share with us how to increase your practice revenue, efficiency and patient satisfaction with telemedicine!

How AI Improves EMR Auditing

Posted on September 8, 2020 by Jean Eaton in Blog

Healthcare providers and clinic managers have three common myths about EMR user monitoring auditing.

Myth #1 – The electronic medical record EMR automatically does all the auditing – I don’t have to do anything

Myth #2 – I don’t have to audit my users – I know them

Myth #3 – I won’t have to worry about this until I have a breach

Rob Pruter, the User Monitoring Expert at SPHER is my guest on this episode of Practice Management Nuggets For Your Healthcare Practice!

He’s going to share with us how to protect your practice and your patients when you use Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology that can recognize unusual activities and generate a warning message.

Finally, an easy way to perform user monitoring and quickly recognize risks from external bad actors and employee snooping incidents!

Rob Pruter's #1 Tip to Healthcare Providers, Clinic Managers, and Privacy Officers

Nobody goes to the doctor to get their identity stolen! Click to Tweet

My Favorite Takeaways From The Podcast

  • Patients trust their healthcare providers – not just about their medical information, but personally identifying information, too.
  • Identity and access management is critical! Everyone needs a unique user ID.
  • Increasingly important given the trend to remote access and browser based EMR access. Don't be complacent just because you can't see the users.
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI ) technology can quickly recognize unusual activities and generate a timely warning message so that you can react appropriately.
  • You don’t know when someone’s credentials have been compromised. People’s personal circumstances change. You need to demonstrate reasonable safeguards including user monitoring.
  • Designate a person (privacy officer, compliance officer) in the organization responsible to ensure regular review of users’ behaviour. This has a significant impact on decreasing the likelihood of being impacted by a privacy and security breach.

Posted on March 24, 2018 by Jean Eaton in Blog, Clinic Manager / Privacy Officer, New Practice

Information Managers can assist your healthcare practice in Alberta to recruit administrative and support staff. Recruiting is one of our Virtual Clinic Manager Services.

 


 

What is the Virtual Clinic Manager?

We are not an employment agency – we can help you recruit to fill your vacancies in your healthcare practice.

This might include:

  • Create customized job description, job posting, on-line application form.
  • Distribute advertising for the opening to multiple locations.
  • Receive application forms and create and maintain a database of applicants. This will help to quickly review incoming applications and follow-up with candidates. The applications will come directly to Information Managers. The client will receive the information from all candidates.
  • Screen candidates by telephone. When I identify a candidate(s) that meets your requirements, I will contact the client. You can decide at that time if you want me to do the first in-person interview with the candidate or if you want me to do the first in-person interview.
  • After the interview, I can assist you with the reference checking and follow-up with the candidate. This may include a thank you notice to the candidates selected for a telephone interview and draft letter of offer to the successful candidate.

Privacy Policy

"I had the pleasure of working alongside Jean to develop a PIA for my Dental Office. I could not have completed this document without her. She was there to help me every step of the way. Her online course made it easy to communicate with her as well as having so many resources to use that were so helpful. Each Module had videos to watch that explained step by step what needed to be done. The PIA document is a lot of information to put together and if it's not enough information on its own, you also need to develop a policy and procedures manual. Jean has developed an amazing resource for this manual that was very user friendly and made a 300 page manual a lot more attainable than creating it on your own. I highly recommend taking Jean's PIA course and having her help throughout the process!"
