Anesthesia Business Consultants (ABC), a leading provider in billing and practice management for the anesthesia and pain management specialty, is pleased to announce that the Summer 2016 issue of its quarterly newsletter, The Communiqué, is now available.
The Communiqué is a publication dedicated to bringing practical and tangible articles and advice, specific to the anesthesia and pain management community. The Communiqué features articles focusing on the latest hot topics for anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, pain management specialists and anesthesia practice administrators. ABC offers The Communiqué electronically as well as in hard copy, both on a complimentary basis.
Tony Mira, President & CEO explains, “If you are a regular reader of The Communiqué, then the Summer 2016 issue will be of interest to you. We always strive to provide articles and advice that are practical and relevant and this issue is not an exception.”
Our authors are constantly thinking about the dynamic world of anesthesia practice and they always have something interesting to tell us. Their contributions to this Summer issue are proof. Richard P. Dutton, MD, MBA, who led the Anesthesia Quality Institute (AQI) until he joined U.S. Anesthesia Partners and moved his practice to Dallas, asks, in Thinking about Medical Errors, whether the seemingly high volume of preventable deaths is cause for alarm. He gives thee cogent reasons for a “no” answer.
A new author this month, Bob Vosburgh, President of SurveyVitals®, currently the largest anesthesia-specific patient satisfaction solution in the United States, provides his unique insight on Beyond CAHPS®—Measuring the Patient Experience Digitally and Why It Matters. He asks “Why track the patient experience?” Discover Mr. Vosburgh’s thoughts on this important and timely concept.
