Anesthesia Business Consultants (ABC), a leading provider in billing and practice management for the anesthesia and pain management specialty, is pleased to announce its latest partnership with Stat-App. Developed and piloted by Anaesthesia Associates of Massachusetts, the largest private anesthesia practice in New England, Stat-App focuses on improving the efficiencies of anesthesia practices to better serve the facilities they work in.
The Stat-App infrastructure is designed to allow clinical providers to securely communicate with their colleagues, and to better understand who is available presently within their own facility utilizing GPS technologies. Leveraging devices that are already utilized today, the Stat-App brings a new capability to an anesthesia practice to better manage schedules, utilization and costs.
"The profitability, and even survival, of an independent multi-facility practice group depends upon correctly aligning valuable clinicians with an appropriate workload. Stat-App exists to optimize multi-facility practices, open lines of communication and to equalize provider workload," said Christopher W. Connor, MD, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Anesthesiology and Biomedical Engineering, Anaesthesia Associates of Massachusetts. The capability of the Stat-App infrastructure extends to better visualization of long-term staffing trends, but at the same time is sensitive to the individual provider’s privacy. The reporting and tracking capabilities are centered only on the locations being served and do not go beyond the boundaries of that clinical location. No extraneous information is gathered or reported, thereby limiting potential information disclosure.
ABC is always seeking ways to streamline the anesthesia documentation process and increase efficiencies for our clients and Stat-App is a new and innovative way to utilize a resource that is readily available. From the improved communication among providers in a facility to better visualized staffing requirements, Stat-App provides the expertise and function to keep clients effective, efficient and innovative.
