MedTech provides the following consulting services:
Coding: This service conducts chart audits using HCFA's new Evaluation and Management Guidelines as well as NCQA chart format standards. The coding process not only looks to enhance coding opportunity but trains physicians and staff on appropriate coding methodology.
Procedure/Policy Development: The development of policy/procedures is becoming an important ingredient for successful practice development. Communicating these rules and guidelines effectively to every stakeholder is extremely important. A primary guideline document allows staff to review policies and make decisions without constantly changing interpretation by the staff, the office manager or physicians. Furthermore, it enables practice issues to be handled fairly, consistently, reduces legal liability, and lowers staff turnover due to frustration over unclear job responsibilities.
Practice Start-ups: This service involves all aspects of practice development and includes some of the following: incorporation, obtaining provider numbers, practice location selection, equipment purchase, staff selection, managed care contracting, office policy/procedures, marketing and business plan development.
Business Plan Development: Implementing a business plan is essential for successful practice development and management. This service involves the design, development, and implementation of a sound business plan with one year, two year, and five year business objectives. This plan takes into consideration both personal and economic variables.
