Keeping Up
The challenges keep coming for medical practices. Administrative burdens, regulations, value-based payment models, quality measures, patient satisfaction goals, and complex EHRs are a regular part of the job these days. Not to mention the pandemic and its effects—including a loss of patient volume and the urgent need to embrace telehealth. As a physician, you want to keep your focus on delivering outstanding patient care. The last thing you need is an IT infrastructure that adds to your non-clinical workload. That’s where we come in. Our experience in IT managed services can help you reduce administrative hassles and assist in developing a stable and secure computing environment for your practice.

What we're seeing in the healthcare industry
- One thing we’re hearing is that physicians are more pressed for time than ever. Administrative burdens are always a problem, but they’ve grown worse with the rise in telehealth visits and drop in patient volume, possibly even causing revenue losses.
- A big part of the time crunch from poor IT is around how much time it takes to track all the things that help you get paid. This includes things like quality metrics and prior authorizations. Sometimes doctors report they just don’t have any time left over to think about critical office functions such as the health of their IT network or data security.
- We’re also seeing a huge rise in cybersecurity threats in healthcare. It picked up last fall—in fact, the FBI, HHS, and CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency) announced a threat advisory in October. (Source: Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (A Division of US Homeland Security)) Several health systems reported lengthy EHR downtime from the ransomware attack. It’s a serious threat. Cybercriminals view health care data as highly valuable.
- Speaking of security, with health care changing so quickly, it’s getting harder to keep up. That’s where we come in—it’s our job to keep up. Your focus should be on what’s happening with your patients and in health care, while leaving IT and security to us. A perfect example is telehealth—physicians can make good use of telehealth to treat patients, while we help create a secure environment for telehealth.

We recently contracted with CyberSleuth®. I could not be more pleased. Within the first 48 hours of scanning our computers, they identified multiple issues that posed a severe HIPAA breach threat in the event of a cyberattack. I panicked, but they calmly "talked me down" and showed me how to ameliorate those risks. They made me feel so comfortable and protected, that I hired them. I get reports on threats that have been blocked (and who knew there were so my!) and ways to improve our security, hardware, and software. I'd not hesitate to recommend CyberSleuth®. The money we put into their services is worth it for our security and peace of mind
