Born a Chooser

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 51 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

It is said that courage is the greatest of all the virtues. What should you have the courage for? How should you best use this courage that you have that’s an innate power?

You should use it to do whatever you wish to do. But, at all times you need to know what to do with it, because life has no remote control. What you want to change, you have to get up and change it yourself. That’s just the way things are. (more…)

How Would an Integrated Medical Center Affect HMO/Insurance Capitation?

How Would an Integrated Medical Center Affect HMO/Insurance Capitation?

How Would an Integrated Medical Center Affect HMO/Insurance Capitation?

Contrary to some critics, HMO/insurance capitation have no negative effect to the integrated medical centers.

Let me explain.

What Is a Capitated Contract?

A capitated contract is a healthcare plan that allows payment of a flat fee for each patient it covers. Under a capitated contract, an HMO or managed care organization pays a fixed amount of money for its members to the health care provider. Capitated contracts are also referred to as capitation agreements, capitation contracts and managed care capitated contracts. Within a capitated contract, the healthcare provider is paid a set dollar amount per month to see patients regardless of how many treatments or the number of times the physician or clinic sees the patient. The agreement is that the provider will get a flat, prearranged payment in advance per month. Whether or not the patient needs services in a particular month, the provider will still get paid the same fee. The more treatment a patient need, the less money a health provider makes per treatment.

Traditionally, payers have reimbursed healthcare providers for the costs of services delivered or for the volume of services delivered. However, new types of healthcare plans are moving from paying for volume to paying for value – incorporating cost, consumer health outcomes, and consumer experience – with capitation rates based on performance at the “most advanced” end of the scale.

Capitation-style healthcare contracts were created with the intention of creating better incentives for efficiency, cost control, and preventive care in healthcare. Given that most individuals enrolled in a health plan will never use the services in any given month, capitation arrangements should naturally balance out high-frequency users with plan members who use little or no healthcare every month. Also, because the physician, or health system are responsible for the enrolled member’s health regardless of cost, in theory, capitation motivates the healthcare provider to focus on health screenings and other preventative care that can help keep plan members healthy, with less reliance on costly specialists. Because integrated medical centers are operated with the guidance of a DC as the gate keeper, the HMO option becomes a viable opportunity. Indeed, the very fact that DCs encourage maintenance care while ensuring preventative health habits, the medical integration model is a perfect answer and solution to the nation’s largely mismanaged health care problems.    

At COA, we are proud that our integrated centers play a critical role solving the nation’s health care problems. This greatly anticipated concept gives rise to a new generation of healthcare philosophy called:

“The patient philosophy!”

The GPS

The GPS

Inspiration: Above and Beyond – Day 50

With the advance of technology today, I’m sure you know what a GPS is. But do you know how it works?

When you get lost, the GPS doesn’t tell you to go back to your starting point, rather its recalculates and fixes your route via satellite from above.

May I suggest that this is how life is? When you get lost in life and things seem to be challenging, you need to trust the Creator who has a map which is kept above to get you back at any time where you need to be. In other words, He will get you back on track. (more…)

Turn Your Plan Into Action

Turn Your Plan Into Action

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 49 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Would you like to know secrets of a powerful lesson covering how to turn your plans into action? Listen carefully…

The first thing that you must do to turn your life around, is to realize that you matter in this world. Everything that you do affects everything else around you. Not just your world, but the whole world from where you stand to the other side of the globe. Everything affects everything else.

The second thing is that you must dream a dream. Have a vision of what you want and then plan for the dream, realize what you must do. You must watch your dream turn into reality and enjoy the steps to do so. Now you might ask, “How would I do that?” (more…)

Control

Control

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 48 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Are you in control of your life? You should be. There are certain things you can’t control, for instance, the weather, you can’t control that. Time moving, you can’t control that either. How other people act, you can’t control that.

You can control everything that’s about you. If you really want to improve your situation at any given time, you can work on that one thing that you always have control over, yourself. Having control doesn’t mean that you are in charge of everything or anyone, or all things around you. Having control and being in charge means that you’re in control of yourself, your attitude, the way that you express yourself. Whether or not you help other people, and whether or not when you meet other people you make them feel greater than they are at the time that they see you; that you have control over. That’s true control. (more…)

Stress Ball

Stress Ball

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 47 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Have you ever seen a stress ball or do you know what it is? Let me describe it, if I may, a little plastic ball. It fits just about in the palm of your hands and supposedly, not with any scientific backgrounds, when you’re stressed you’re supposed to take this stress ball and exert energy into the ball and squeeze it as hard as you can as many times as you need. This supposedly, again without any scientific background, should get rid of the stress that you have. Rather than exerting yourself in an improper matter or on things or people, you would release that negative energy or stress onto the ball; so it’s called a stress ball. (more…)

5 Fundamentals of Life

5 Fundamentals of Life

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 46 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

In life, you must know that there are fundamentals which are important to remember. These are the concepts that we live by and principles that make us grow into better people.

The first fundamental of life is to know that you are created in the image of G-d. This is critical to your life and your family, it is truly important to always remember that.

The second fundamental of life is to know unequivocally that G-d wants you to succeed. The world was created such that, everything that was given to you – all the opportunities, all the possibilities – are possible for you. Everything is there to help you succeed, to help you to become better. (more…)

Outside The Elevator

Outside The Elevator

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 45 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

I came into work this morning and there was a man standing outside the elevator. As I approached the elevator, he smiled at me and said, “How is your day today? Are you having a great day?”

And I said, “Yes.”

As we got into the elevator, this wonderful man smiled at me. All excited, he said, “Isn’t it great to be alive? Isn’t it nice just to be here and have things to do?”

I was so impressed by that. He kept a smile on his face the whole time, and not only that he kept a good attitude. It was even more so is that he seemed that he was going somewhere. He had a uniform on with the name of a company that he was working for and it was obvious that he had a duty or task to perform. (more…)

What is the Insurance Companies’ Response to the Proliferation of Integrated Medical Centers?

What is the Insurance Companies’ Response to the Proliferation of Integrated Medical Centers?

What is the Insurance Companies’ Response to the Proliferation of Integrated Medical Centers?

Although some articles have been written about the pros and cons of integrated medical centers for both doctors and patients, one will have to really dig deep to find something about insurance companies’ reactions to the surge of integrated medical centers nationally. Nonetheless, in order for one to better understand what insurance companies “think”, one should first understand what insurance companies all are about.

Insurance is a means of protection from financial loss. It is a form of risk management, primarily used to hedge against the risk of a contingent or uncertain loss.

An entity which provides insurance is known as an insurer, insurance company, insurance carrier or underwriter. A person or entity who buys insurance is known as an insured or as a policyholder. The insurance transaction involves the insured assuming a guaranteed and known relatively small loss in the form of payment to the insurer in exchange for the insurer’s promise to compensate the insured in the event of a covered loss. The loss may or may not be financial, but it must be reducible to financial terms, and usually involves something in which the insured has an insurable interest established by ownership, possession, or pre-existing relationship.

The insured receives a contract, called the insurance policy, which details the conditions and circumstances under which the insurer will compensate the insured. The amount of money charged by the insurer to the policyholder for the coverage set forth in the insurance policy is called the premium. If the insured experiences a loss which is potentially covered by the insurance policy, the insured submits a claim to the insurer for processing by a claims adjuster. The insurer may hedge its own risk by taking out reinsurance, whereby another insurance company agrees to carry some of the risk, especially if the primary insurer deems the risk too large for it to carry.

Being the country’s longest practicing consultant for medically integrated practices, it is my opinion, that insurance companies are not really opposed to integrated medical centers if they are established appropriately and services patients ethically. However, historically, insurance companies have been very concerned that DCs create integrated medical centers primarily to circumvent limitations on chiropractic coverages. 

Case in point, many of my clients have successfully managed very profitable integrated medical centers for decades without ever having any legal issues.

So, in conclusion, can medical integrated centers provide great care and generate great profits? The answer is unequivocally YES, if the center is properly established, managed ethically using appropriate medical protocols.

Remember & Forget

Remember & Forget

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 44 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Always remember to forget the things that made you sad, but you should never forget to remember the things that made you glad. Now, you should always remember to forget friends that proved to be untrue or not the real friends, but you should never forget to remember those that have stuck by you, especially when you needed them.

Always remember to forget the troubles that have passed away, but never forget to remember the blessings that come each day. These are special words, to always remember and forget the important things in life. (more…)

Reprimand

Reprimand

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 43 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Have you ever been around people who believe that reprimanding is something which is not only absolute in their life but necessary? They believe unequivocally that admonishing, censoring, or rebuking others is of utmost importance.

It’s easy to catch a person when they’re doing something wrong. The true secret of a good life, a good education, or genuine love is to catch them when they’re doing something right. It is at that time that you can speak to them about what they’re doing by lifting them up; helping them see themselves greater than they are. (more…)

Inadequate

Inadequate

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 42 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Have you ever heard the word inadequate? A word which means deficient or faulty, incompetent, perhaps even incomplete, skimpy, unequal, or weak. This word is definitely not something that describes any human being, yet sometimes, for whatever reason, people call others inadequate.

Are you inadequate? Do you feel inadequate?

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate; our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Often, we ask ourselves, who am I to be? Brilliant or gorgeous, talented, or even fabulous? (more…)

The Caterpillar

The Caterpillar

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 41 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

There is a famous parable about a child who saw a caterpillar. When the caterpillar was there on the branch, it was struggling to get out of its cocoon. So the boy, being a young child, took pity on the caterpillar and cut open the cocoon to allow the caterpillar out. When the caterpillar turned out to be a butterfly, it couldn’t fly.

You see, although the boy thought he was doing the caterpillar a favor, in reality, he was crippling it. The caterpillar needed to struggle out of its own cocoon in order to develop the right muscles to be able to fly later and be a free, beautiful butterfly. (more…)

How Does Medical Integration Benefit a Chiropractor?

How Does Medical Integration Benefit a Chiropractor?

How Does Medical Integration Benefit a Chiropractor?

Many doctors considering medical integration often question the real benefits to their patients as well as to themselves. Over the last many years, the many investigations for medically integrated centers have dampen the enthusiasm of many practitioners. Hence, the question remains a valid concern. What are the true benefits of medical integration?  

  1. Since, the DC, more often than not, performs the initial evaluation, the DC has initial control of the treatment protocols prescribed which will ensure that the chiropractic philosophy is maintained.
  2. Any patients needing any other type of treatments, which is outside of the DC’s scope of practice, will be referred to another practitioner within the same clinic and therefore lessening any chance for the patient to seek care from other outside providers.  
  3. The DC overseeing the treatment protocols will continue to play a critical part of any decision making which will affect the patient’s future physical and mental wellbeing.
  4. In an integrated medical center, all health care professionals work as a team leading to higher patient retention and therefore better treatment outcome assessment.
  5. Many more conditions will be treated given the various specialists. 
  6. The expansion of the clinic’s services will invariably attract many more patients, which will in turn generate higher billing hence more revenue. 
  7. A group practice can join many more insurance networks and therefore be credentialled to have access to a larger pool of new patients.
  8. Integrated medical centers can have easier access to worthwhile networks which were originally possibly closed to DC’s.   
  9. A DC in a medical integrated center will be able to build a stronger relationship with the medical community thereby generating many medical referrals.
  10. A successfully established medical integrated center can merge with other larger medical facilities.

In conclusion, integrate medical centers today have the ability to treat many more patients without compromising their chiropractic philosophy in a most adulterated genuine way.

Who Are We

Who Are We

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 40 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Who are we? It has been said that everything we see, either good or not, is really a reflection of ourselves. If it wasn’t – then we would simply not see it. The good that we see has a message. Is it possible, however, that this phenomenon is part of the Creator’s merciful way of teaching us a lesson in life?

Most of us have a difficult time hearing from others anything said about our flaws. So the Creator, in His infinite kindness, set up a way that we may have a confrontation with the person who exhibits that same exact flaw in some form or another. (more…)

Goodness

Goodness

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 39 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

A person develops good character traits by doing a good deed multiple times. For example, giving one person a thousand gold coins influences the giver less than giving a single gold coins to a thousand individuals.

A one-time donation awakens the soul with great inspiration for a good deed but then dissipates. With repetition, the trait of benevolence becomes embedded in the giver for many years. So, spread the goodness and change your life. (more…)

Predetermined

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 38 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Did you know that before a person is born the intellect, the strength, and the appearance that they may have for their life, and even the future mate that they will marry, are all predetermined? Only one thing is not predetermined, and that is the moral decision that is left to that person. Everything is in the hands of Heaven, except the fear of Heaven. (more…)

Two Ears One Mouth

Two Ears One Mouth

Daily Wisdom  – Motivational Podcast – Day 36 – Inspiration: Above and Beyond

Have you ever wondered why we are given two ears but only one mouth? This is interesting. Perhaps a suggestion to answer why we have two ears and just one mouth is perhaps as a reminder that it behooves us to listen at least “twice as much as we speak.”

When someone comes to you for advice or perhaps would like to get some recognition, or even a friend to speak with; do you listen with the intent of answering the question? What is the purpose for that? Why are you listening? Is there a reason for that? (more…)

What Sort of Budget Do I Need for Medical Integration?

What Sort of Budget Do I Need for Medical Integration?

What Sort of Budget Do I Need for Medical Integration?

While broadening your scope of practice to offer more services is a noble idea, medical integration certainly requires a financial commitment which makes many doctors feel uneasy and even apprehensive.   

Understandably, many doctors are worried about the “unknown” financial investment one will need to consider. Even though many positive feedbacks have been publicized about medical integration, the negative aspect we mostly hear today, is the huge initial monetary commitment it requires.

But does medical integration actually “demand” a big financial investment?

Given what we know today, do these “new” doctors have valid concerns?

What is the “true” cost consideration to open an integrated medical center? 

There is no doubt that the success of an integrated medical center is based on its viability to survive through the many changes it will experience in its infancy. So, let us explore the two main initial areas of concern. In my 26 years of experience as a consultant, and the longest practicing consultant in the nation for medical integration, I can outline two major financial areas for creating an integrated medical center. 

 

  1. Qualified legal representation
  2. Professional medical and support staff

 

  1. Qualified Legal representation:

To ensure that a newly integrated medical center is “properly” established, there can be no option but to retain the services of a qualified health care attorney. The national amount for legal fees for medical integration, ranges from about $3000 on up. Again, according to your attorney’s advice, you may need to have multiple contractual agreements in place. Indeed, depending on each individual state requirements, there maybe the need to create one or more corporate entities which may add to the cost of your legal representation. Just as well, setting up new corporations will invariably add accounting expenses. With over 26 years of experience as a consultant, I am proud to say that I have extensive experience in this field and by having assisted over 1256 centers in 45 states, I can unequivocally state that in regard to legal representation, on must make sure to only work with qualified health care attorneys. I can assure you that carefully following this advice will save any doctor, years of anxiety and thousands of dollars.   

  1. Professional medical and support staff:

Secondly, one of the ongoing expenses that a newly medical integrated center will incur, is the addition of medical and support staff. The professional licensed medical team and added staff members will add significant fees to the clinic. Hence, the clinic owner must be prepared to assume the added expense and expect these constant recurring costs to increase over time as the clinic grows. It is however critical that the owner creates a well outlined plan with a sound budget. As the saying goes “Not having a plan, is a plan to fail”. Why would anyone invest time and efforts into any venture without having a solid budget in place? Over the past many years of my professional life as a consultant, I have spoken to thousands of doctors who did not take the time and conscientiously sit down and clearly develop a concrete budget with proper allocations and ended up regretting not taking my advice.

 

Successful practices must invest time to create and manage a budget, prepare and review a solid business plan and regularly monitor financial reports and performance. A structured planning can make all the difference to the growth of your business. It will enable you to concentrate resources on improving profits, reducing costs and increasing returns on investment. The key benefit of business planning is that it allows you to create a focus for the direction of your integrated medical center and provide targets that will help your clinic grow. It will also give you the opportunity to stand back and review your performance and the factors affecting your clinic.

Sound business planning will ensure:

  • A greater ability to make continuous improvements while maneuvering around obstacles as you acquire more patients.
  • Sound financial information on which to base future decisions managing your medical staff.
  • Improved clarity and focus on new medical services you wish to add to your clinic.
  • A greater confidence in your decision-making.

 

I can unequivocally attest to the fact that my clients who have followed this advice, have greatly enjoyed the financial rewards of success earlier in the game and with less worry.

 

So, in conclusion, I must again reiterate as I often do on my Dr. Dahan Daily Live Radio Show, that medical integration is simply not for everyone. If you wish to succeed, you must do your homework seriously so that you can have a strategic plan of action with a well-designed detailed step by step managerial program to lead you to success.
