Download MP3
In this insider podcast, Bill Hambsh FACMPE CPA, CEO and Practicing Administrator at North Florida Women’s Care, talks about the increasing impact of text messaging as a way for medical practices to communicate with patients. According to Hambsh, when it comes to effectively closing care gaps, engaging patients, and increasing care plan adherence, text messaging has a proven record of success. Not only have studies shown that text messaging is the preferred and most convenient means and communication channel for patients, but integrating text-based communication systems with EHRs is a cost-effective approach to boosting health outcomes. Providers can leverage this integration to alleviate the EHR data silo and automate hyper-targeted, clinical messages with tangible effects on health. If you're interested in learning more on this topic, you can see Hambsh speak at MGMA19 | The Operations Conference on Tuesday, April 16, in Austin, Texas from 8am-9am.
