Where is the “service” part in the medical service? Part 3

My unpleasant experience with the medical service provider, Rehabilitation and Occupational Medicine (ROM), can finally come to an end.  I wrote about the follow-up I did with my insurance company CCMSI yesterday.  After a few e-mails and phone calls, she helped me straighten things up.  Of course ROM still haven’t contacted me directly, but at least the insurance agent got me the authorization to continue physical therapy.

A phone call from ROM or Delahoussaye (the doctor) to explain what has happened or an apology would have been appreciated.  Obviously, they do not understand the “service” part of their profession.

Recently a friend of mine went with his wife to the clinic for a surgery. They had an appointment but the waiting room looked like “all HELL” had broken lose…the receptionist did not
have a handle on how long patients had been waiting…to make matters worse, once the doctor was
ready to see my wife for preparation, there was some paperwork that needed to be filled out.

My friend contacted me since I am a Software Solution Architect and asked if I knew of a technology
that would aid waiting/reception areas in a rapid, easy manner so that doctors could see how long
they were making their patients wait and staff could be more pro-active in having paper work
filled out earlier. In response to my friends demand, I customized a software I developed for BMW
dealerships now available for doctors, medical centers, clinics, etc…
The software is called http://www.lobbymanager.com check it out it will help you more than you can imagine!
