Over the past 15 years, medical professionals have come under extreme pressure by the federal government and private
industry with respect to their fees and utilization of services. At the same time, payers have been using technology systems
and integrating private-sector business techniques to impose even further financial burdens on medical practices with respect
to fees, coding regulations and billing restrictions.
In addition to these challenges, legislation such as Starke II, HIPAA, CCI and others, continues to have a negative impact
on the profitability of the medical practice. As a result, practices have been forced to invest in new technology and staff in
order to operate in full compliance.
Clifton Gunderson's Comprehensive Medical Practice Analysis (CMPA) offers solutions to the challenges you face through a
careful analysis of critical financial aspects of your practice. Using the results of our CMPA, medical practices are in a
much better position to optimize profitability and competitive position, while maintaining full compliance with all laws,
rules and regulations.
