Question

Do you have suggestions for cost saving tips for practice and office management?

Answer

Lance Brown: Since our foundation in 2012, Audiology Systems have expanded its portfolio and introduced solutions to help audiologists and hearing care providers streamline their workflow. With the right tools in place, practices can smoothly transition to an EMR ready practice. Our Software Integration Group (SIG) services ensure that audiologists and hearing care professionals have a better workflow, data security and the optimum PC experience. We will soon be launching a solution that will allow users to install Noah, OTOsuite and hearing aid software themselves with a single click—so contact to your local sales and service to stay up-to-date!

John Berry:  Having a “one-stop” service provider for all makes and models of equipment is a huge time-saver for audiologists and hearing care professionals because it eliminates the need to call anyone else for service and calibration. At Audiology Systems, our calibration services are not limited to Otometrics products. Read more in our most recent interview.

Tom Crisman: Audiology Systems Care Plans are designed to provide extra protection for your equipment: from the time you purchase, to installation and maintenance, and can even include education and training. The Care Plans give you access to our team of highly-skilled service professionals, audiologists and customer support staff and helps you beat the high costs of unexpected repairs. Our care plans are available for both new purchases and existing equipment.

Chris Nash: Take advantage of loaner programs. To ensure uninterrupted patient care as we are servicing your equipment, our loaner program is available as a rental or as part of the benefits of purchasing a Care Plan.

There are so many components to quality patient care that it is challenging to “master” them all. What if you could come together with other professionals who possess knowledge or experience that could help you or your practice? There are a number of veteran audiologists as well as rising professionals who have wisdom, qualifications, narratives, and unique journeys to share. The purpose of this talk is to rethink the traditional mentor/mentee vertical relationship and explore collaboration in the form of circle…where all professionals, regardless of age or experience, learn from each other.
