MPR NEWSFLASH

Medical Professional Resources is proud to announce a new service line Marketing & Promoting launched in September 2010. With all of the regulatory changes, it is becoming more difficult for the hospital to assist practitioners in promoting their practices to the community. Since this was a responsibility that I had in my previous role at the hospital, it was a natural addition to the array of services provided by MPR, LLC.

Marketing and promotion is not only a value tool in protecting a practice but also in capturing additional market share. The first part of the development of a marketing plan is to review current revenue and practice data to establish the current benchmark. Then, a strategic plan for building your brand needs to be defined reflecting who you are as a practitioner and communicating to potential patients what your practice has to offer.

Social networking & communication tools such as websites, Facebook & Twitter may be something that you haven’t utilized but should consider along with other marketing resources / tools.

If you are interested in exploring what marketing & promotion might do for your practice, feel free to contact me at c.walters@medicalproresources.com or FRIEND me on Facebook at www.facebook/cmwalters106.

To Our Valued Clients and Their Staffs:

Deadline for e-Prescribing

In order to avoid a reduction in your 2012 Medicare reimbursements, you must submit at least 10 electronic prescriptions by June 30, 2011.

There are multiple resources available including the MGMA, AMA, AAFT as well as MPR,LLC. to assist you with the basics on e-prescribing and how to successfully implement it.

For more information, feel free to contact Colleen M. Walters, Chief Operating Officer, MPR, LLC at (937) 390-2564 or email c.walters@medicalproresources.com.

Outpatient Cardiology Diagnostic Services Update

Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield are changing a previously voluntary precertification option to a requirement effective November 1, 2010 for some of the tests that you perform. This includes Stress Echocardiogram (SE), Resting Transthoracic Echocardiogram (TTE), Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE).

You should have received information from Anthem sent directly to your office already. This information is important to you because this will change your reimbursement if processes are not created prior to the care being rendered to obtain precertification.

For additional information regarding how this change will impact your practice, feel free to contact Colleen M. Walters, Chief Operating Officer at cellular (937) 207-8846 or email c.walters@medicalproresources.com.
