July 11, 2008 – ValuSource Software and Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) released two Web-based dashboards that enable physicians and group practices to enter a few variables about physician compensation and production and costs and compare themselves to national norms.
To gauge physician compensation and production, users select their specialty from a pull-down menu, enter information about compensation, collections, gross charges, ambulatory encounters, surgery/anesthesia cases and work RVUs. The dashboards compare that data to national norms and produce a series of six gauges that measure physician performance in specific areas (using a simple red-yellow-green visual score).
Similarly, to calculate how their practice costs compare to that of other practices nationwide, users enter variables detailing accounts receivable (A/R), medical revenue, support staff, and operating costs per physician.
With reimbursement down and practice costs rising, practices of all sizes can measure practice performance in order to enhance it.
