Are you a physician or practice manager who wants a clearer picture of practice performance so you can make better business decisions? Now you can find out quickly whether your practice is poised to thrive—or needs some improvements—with our PracticeVitals app, available for download from iTunes or the App store! You get unparalleled insight into athenahealth client performance across six metrics we find most valuable in determining practice success. 

Within the app, select your specialty and see how your practice compares to those using athenahealth’s cloud-based services for practice management, medical billing and electronic medical records.

The six selected metrics come from the Practice Performance Report we provide regularly to client practices. Our clients can accurately gauge practice efficiency and success by monitoring these metrics: No-Show Rate, Turnaround Time, Days in Accounts Receivable (DAR), Same-Day Close Rate, Revenue Realization Rate and Delegation of Work. PracticeVitals provides a high-level explanation of each measurement and why we find each to be a critical performance indicator. 

The app also includes a 12-month trend graph for each metric and quick tips that explain how all practices—both athenahealth clients and non-athenahealth clients—can improve practice performance. You can share the app and the quick tips via Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and email.  

If you are already familiar with our annual PayerView and VaccineView reports, you know we are the only health information technology company with the ability to track and measure this type of client data, at this level, thanks to our cloud-based network of more than 33,000 care givers.  Download the app now, get your practice on the path to improved financial success, and share your stories with us!
