Significant ROI
Within 10 months of implementation at 24 clinics and establishing individual physician workflows, FCN experienced a return on investment (ROI) of greater than 10 times over. FCN has rolled out the technology to 36 locations.
By streamlining physician workflows, the practice saved 8 to 10 minutes per patient visit—without compromising care quality. Those time savings equated to two or three additional patient appointments per day at select practices, increasing revenue by 24%. Physicians also have the option to take that
time back in their day to improve work-life balance. In small offices, digital check-in replaced one FTE at each location. Finally, patients embraced these new technologies, with 81% rating the medical group at 4.8 on a 5.0-point scale.
