Our Services
Scheduling
Anesthesia is crucial for patient comfort and safety during surgery, but scheduling can be difficult in busy facilities. To tackle this, Missouri Anesthesia Services uses data analysis to identify trends in case duration, staffing needs, and patient requirements. We adjust scheduling to cover cases that typically run longer than expected. Centralized scheduling helps prevent conflicts and confusion by designating a team to coordinate scheduling. We also establish communication protocols with surgical facility staff to ensure everyone is informed about scheduling, patient needs, and updates on case progress. These strategies help us allocate resources effectively and streamline the scheduling process.
Recruiting
Recruiting new providers for our anesthesia services group is crucial to meet patient and community needs but can be challenging in the current work climate. To attract qualified candidates, Missouri Anesthesia Services focuses on building a strong online presence on social media platforms like LinkedIn and Twitter and attending industry conferences to network with potential candidates. We offer a competitive compensation and benefits package, conduct market research to ensure it is in line with industry standards, and provide professional development opportunities. Additionally, we prioritize creating a positive and supportive work culture that values open communication, collaboration, and work-life balance. This approach fosters a sense of support and respect among our anesthesiologists and CRNAs, leading to long-term retention and recommendations to their peers.
Billing
We optimize our medical billing by ensuring accurate coding and complete documentation for anesthesia billing codes. Proper coding and timely claims submission help us receive payments faster and avoid fines and audits. We strive to bill immediately after each procedure day to avoid backlogs and revenue loss. Our dedicated claims management team manages denials and appeals with a streamlined process. We also train our staff to understand the billing process and keep them updated with any changes.
Inventory Management
We manage inventory for office-based surgeries and follow optimization strategies for supply management. We analyze inventory frequently and track levels, reordering supplies when necessary. For clients with limited storage, we use a just-in-time inventory system. We negotiate better pricing with suppliers by ordering larger quantities and establishing long-term contracts. To prevent waste, we dispose of expired or unused supplies using established protocols. These optimization strategies help us make the most of storage space and ensure an up-to-date inventory.
