Gastroenterology – MRG HEALTH

Operating an Gastroenterology practice is hard enough…

And if you have 500+ chronically ill patients in your EMR, coordinating care and jumping through insurance hoops is a lot for your staff. MRG’s Virtual Care Management platform is here to help.

Barriers to Adequate Gastroenterology Management

Here are the factors that are potentially standing in the way of getting your patients’ GI illness under control:

Certain patients cannot come to the hospital for planned appointments due to work commitments or disabling diseases.
Gastrointestinal diseases like the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) primarily affects communities that historically have not had access to quality healthcare.
The stigma associated with many gastrointestinal diseases may cause patients to feel nervous or embarrassed about an in-person visit.
The nature of gastrointestinal diseases requires that patients come in for monitoring on a frequent basis in order to ensure their health and safety.
Patients may not have the finances required for traveling to a hospital so often.

Clinical Research Demonstrates Virtual Care
Improves Gastroenterology Outcomes

Giving your patients the best possible care means more than just providing them with medical services. It’s also time for you, as their physician, to think beyond what can be seen in-person. Remote patient monitoring (RPM) and virtual care have been clinically shown to improve gastroenterology outcomes and allow more people dealing with GI issues to get the treatment they need. In an RPM program, patients are monitored remotely using home medical devices like digital weight scales and glucometers to measure weight, glucose, pain scoring, and other measurables unique to treating gastroenterology patients. In an article published by MDPI, it was demonstrated that patients treated with RPM systems experienced higher rates of sustained virological response compared to patients that were receiving the traditional face-to-face consultations prevalent in Gastroenterology today. This is important because it allows those living in distant or impoverished communities to obtain the healthcare that they need and deserve.

Why Smartcare360°?

Improve Patient Outcomes

Clinically-proven to raise the rates of sustained virological response in patients compared to individuals that were receiving face-to-face consultations for patients with hepatitis

Efficiently Manage Billing

Our gastroenterology practice management software is designed to automatically separate billing for each virtual care service and more.

Create Profitable Revenue

RPM increases profitability for any practice in two ways: Reducing costs and increasing overall revenue.

By providing physicians with real-time data, RPM can be used to improve care delivery, avoid potential complications, and cut expenses overall.

In addition, physicians who implement RPM can qualify for special grants from the government that help to offset the cost of care and bring in revenue for immediate profitability.

Cost Effective

Getting virtual care is much more affordable for your patients. The idea of going to the hospital and getting a consultation might put them off because of the huge bills. But, with virtual care services, getting consultations is decidedly more cost-friendly.

With the all-inclusive wellness program created by MRG Health, practices who adopt RPM and CCM can expect to see a boost in their bottom line by $10,000 per month for every 400 patients.
