Whitepaper: Manage Patient Referrals Efficiently
Successful referral channels prioritize convenience, value and patient satisfaction.
By keeping these three key elements at the forefront of any referral network development strategy, providers can drive savings without sacrificing quality:
Convenience
Ensure the flow of information between providers is reliable. Make it easy for your administrative staff to refer patients quickly.
With AristaMD your clinic operations become more efficient, and your doctor referral network becomes stronger.
Value
One of the most powerful ways to bring down the cost of medical care is to improve efficiencies and avoid duplication of services. These can be achieved through a robust exchange of information and close care coordination.
By prioritizing this aspect of the referral process, providers can reduce costs and further solidify their status as a preferred referral partners.
Patient Satisfaction
A patient’s experience with a specialist begins before the referral is ever made. Specialists that accommodate the patient’s appointment preferences make it easier for them to receive timely care.
This sets the stage for a positive patient experience, which affects the reputation of both patients and referring physicians. When patients are referred to the most appropriate specialists, both outcomes and patient satisfaction improve.
How can clinics improve specialist selection by using a referral management solution?
Primary care providers that want to improve the patient referral process, often look to the specialist selection process to gain efficiency. Watch Cory Wilson, sales executive at AristaMD, discuss different ways that referral management can help your practice.
Referral management allows us to hand the baton to the specialist. We send the referral through the portal. Within minutes the specialist receives it and can contact the patient directly to schedule an appointment. We always do what is best for the patient. But, if I have the choice between two specialists and all things are equal, I’ll go with the one who is on the referral management platform.
