Many factors influence a practice's ability to get paid on time. For example, fewer patients are paying their responsibility or even choosing not to have elective treatments. Other uncontrollable influences abound, including inflation, workforce instability, and higher deductibles.

Saturday, April 22 is EARTH DAY, a global day to raise public awareness and concern for living organisms, the environment and the inextricable links between pollution and public health.

At the same time, a cyber hacker tries to steal your practice’s medical information but fails, thanks to your EHR’s cloud-based security.
