Introduction
Efficiency in medical practice is crucial for both patient satisfaction and physician revenue. Many physicians are hindered by inefficient systems that extend consultation times and administrative tasks. Arya, our cutting-edge electronic medical record (EMR) system, promises to revolutionize the way physicians manage their time and increase their patient load and revenue. This case study examines the impact of switching to Arya on a physician's daily operations and financial outcomes.
Background
A Canadian specialist struggled with an inefficient EMR system that significantly slowed down his workflow. Each patient consultation took approximately 30 minutes, limiting the number of patients he could see in a day. He sought a solution to streamline his practice and increase his efficiency.
Transition to Arya
The physician switched from his old EMR system to Arya, a decision that brought substantial changes to his daily operations.
Time Reduction in Key Tasks During Consultation
On Old EMR System: 30 minute visit
10 minutes with patient
10 minutes doing letter
5 minutes forms and prescribing
5 minutes tasks and billing
Using Arya Software: 15 minute visit
10 minutes with patient
3 minutes doing letter
1 minute forms and prescribing
1 minute tasks and billing.
Key Results
The efficiency improvements realized with Arya allowed the physician to cut his consultation time in half, from 30 minutes to 15 minutes. Consequently, he was able to see 50% more patients per day without increasing his working hours, or without adding any extra work for their MOA.
Increased Revenue
By streamlining his workflow, the physician was able to bill an additional $2,000 per day. This significant increase in revenue translated to:
Annual Increase: $50,000 - $100,000
10-Year Increase: $500,000 - $1,000,000
Conclusion
Arya not only improved the physician's efficiency but also had a profound impact on his financial bottom line. By reducing the time spent on administrative tasks and consultations, the physician was able to see more patients and significantly increase his revenue. Physicians seeking to enhance their practice efficiency and profitability should consider transitioning to Arya.
