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 Spring 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.

If you are a regular reader of The Communiqué, then the Spring 2016 issue will be of interest to you. We always strive to provide articles and advice that are practical and relevant.

Deciding on new models for an anesthesiology practice is a challenge. It is not realistic for anesthesiologists to continue believing that if they consistently provide good quality care, all of their financial and business issues will take care of themselves. “The beliefs and strategies that have gotten us to where we are today will not get us to where we want to be tomorrow,” ABC’s Vice President Jody Locke writes in his article The Road Not Taken in this issue of The Communiqué.

If you’ve been reading with interest the series of articles we’ve presented from Rick Bushnell, MD, MBA this most recent is on the perioperative surgical home. In the third of his series, The Perioperative Surgical Home: Of Economics and Value, Dr. Bushnell lays out the calculations for revenue streams that will help to support the PSH taking shape at his facility.
