Kevin Williams, Founder and Managing Director of Claim Resolutions that provides expert medical billing, coding, and practice management, enabling you to pursue your true calling− exceptional patient care joins Enterprise Radio.
Listen to host Eric Dye & guest Kevin Williams discuss the following:
- Tell us about Claim Resolutions, specifically what you do and the markets you serve?
- Everybody thinks of Doctors and medical professionals as being wealthy and living the high life, but from a business standpoint, how prevalent are collections problems for Doctors?
- How will collections issues limit the amount of time a Doctor can focus on his or her practice and treating patients?
- How do these collections issues affect consumers, specifically patients?
- People are concerned right now with the upcoming healthcare reform, or “Obamacare” as it’s being called. What should business owners be aware of and how will it affect them?
- How will healthcare reform affect individuals and how can they educate themselves about these upcoming changes?
- Will the availability of healthcare to those who may not have had it previously cause supply and demand issues and make it more difficult for people to see their healthcare provider?
Tip: Healthcare Reform has easily been one of the most heavily debated topics of the last few years and rightfully so. All Americans are affected by the healthcare delivery landscape we live with and we should take notice of the real effects of the changes unraveling around us. From the boardroom to the water cooler, costs, quality and availability of care are topics that demand attention from small business owners as well as employees and jobseekers.
Young and old, Americans are feeling the squeeze. Most are finding it difficult to come up with acceptable solutions given the severity of the forecast ahead, while more than 50-60 million Americans are walking the tightrope of living without coverage. Those fortunate enough to have health insurance are facing the prospect of an exponential rise in premiums with smaller and smaller networks of providers to choose from. With such widespread reach for ripples created by this healthcare debacle, everyone is looking for answers. How can we afford coverage? Can we go without coverage (and pay the fine!)? What can be done to curb costs and get this problem under control? Why are the looming changes so dramatic?
As a business executive working directly with healthcare providers, facilities, government agencies, and insurance carriers I can tell you that there is more confusion and misinformation than there is solid evidence of what is to come. There are significant issues every small business owner should be aware of in terms of healthcare and these issues will impact their business moving forward.
