BlueFish Medical can assist your practice with PCMH, CCM and MACRA. Throughout my nearly three decades in healthcare IT, I’ve seen the problems facing physicians and their practices change dramatically. With today’s mounting operational costs, staffing difficulties, bureaucratic red tape, frivolous litigation, and inadequate EHR solutions, it’s no wonder so many medical practices are forced to sell out or shut their doors entirely. Despite these challenges, I continue to believe independent physician practices are vital to American healthcare, so I have dedicated my career to helping those practices remain successful. That goal led me to co-found BlueFish Medical, because I recognized a growing need for a firm that could blend industry expertise and software solutions with reliably professional service and customer support. Most Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) vendors outsource data management to cheaper overseas providers, causing a decline in service and efficiency. I believe a well-trained team of local professionals can provide much better results and service quality for customers. I also believe data is essential to understanding each customer’s business, but it’s not enough to compile that data in a useful format. My goal at BlueFish Medical is to help customers analyze data and trends, unpack their meaning, and ultimately use that knowledge to develop a plan to move their practice forward. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in senior-level executive roles with large businesses in the healthcare IT space. BlueFish Medical was born out of the lessons I learned along the way. The greatest satisfaction I earn through my work has always been solving customer problems and building successful teams, and I believe this venture is the ultimate opportunity to focus my experience and passion into creating measurable success for every customer. I’ve seen firsthand how new government initiatives and incentives have caused headaches for health providers and staff members. Yet as frustrating as the transition to electronic health records has been, I also believe EHR has the ability to revolutionize patient care for the better— There is no one-size-fits-all approach to training and implementation. To serve every physician and staff member effectively, I create a unique training model and implementation method based on the needs of each individual clinic. Whether implementing EHR for the first time, changing workflows, or adapting to new government initiatives, my goal is to help every client embrace the potential of healthcare innovation while avoiding the hassles. I have 16 years of experience in the healthcare industry as a practice owner, clinical trainer, and consultant. I’ve worked with physicians and medical organizations throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. This has allowed me to develop a broad range of expertise in operational management, workflow development and analysis, process improvements, and government initiatives—all of which I’m excited to put into practice on behalf of every BlueFish Medical customer. I am a firm believer that if a patient truly understood what was going on in their body, they would be more compliant with their treatment and see greater improvements in their health. Giving patients the tools they need to make the right decisions for their health is one of my deepest passions. That’s why I’m so excited about helping practices provide chronic care management services! Providers today are busier than they have ever been. Caught between a growing “consumer” mindset in their patient populations, complex payer agreements, and ever-more stringent government requirements, time is in short supply, and maintaining a profitable practice can be a struggle. My goal is to remove the burden of CCM services from a practice, enable their patients to access excellent care beyond the office visit, and improve the health of those patients. It’s also satisfying to know that our client practices are realizing revenue for CCM, many of them for the first time.
