Practice Optimization Support

Practice Advisors are available to support physicians and clinics with:  

Enhancing Practice Efficiency and Reducing Administrative Burden 

Our primary goal is to support physicians and clinics in achieving their practice objectives by helping with:  

  • streamlining workflows 
  • reducing administrative overhead 
  • achieving efficiency with more effective use of EMRs and digital health tools. 

Facilitating Transition to Team-Based Care Models 

  • As healthcare evolves, so do practice models. We are committed to assisting physicians and clinics as they transition toward team-based care.  
  • Specific areas of focus include reporting using EMRs, promoting information sharing through EMR Interoperability, and standardizing data collection and exchange. 

Supporting Provincial Compensation Programs 

  • Working closely with the SMA Economics team, our aim is to support physicians in receiving the compensation that they are entitled to. Together we provide guidance and assistance to physicians regarding provincial compensation programs.  

Gathering Physician Feedback and Enabling Continuous Improvement 

  • Gathering feedback directly from physicians is crucial. By understanding their needs, challenges, and preferences, we can tailor our support offerings effectively. This feedback loop informs our advocacy, decision-making and guides future program initiatives.
