Problems and Opportunities

History

Our Leadership Team first established a premier outpatient anesthesia practice in the New York Area (Caliber Anesthesia). As experts in perioperative processes, they helped their surgical facility partners with issues such as OR block scheduling, staffing, physician credentialing, and passing an accreditation inspection, among a host of other operational challenges.

Problem

As some ASCs transitioned from paper to digital solutions, it became clear that software providers were consolidating incomplete and legacy-fragmented products, resulting in operational inefficiency, decreased staff satisfaction, and increased costs.

Opportunity

Digital transformation requires solutions that focus on real problems and are simple to use. Our clinically-led team created exactly that—the PreferredMD all-in-one platform to help surgical facilities integrate their multiple legacy systems, improving operational inefficiencies and further preparing them for the era of automation and AI.

Our Solutions and Evolution

After working with ASCs in New York, PreferredMD Solutions expanded to offer value-added services to ASCs and surgical facilities nationally.

Our services were created by clinicians for clinicians. Our clinical team, working at hundreds of facilities, continues its journey as a growing number of surgeons, ASCs, and surgical facilities facing similar issues recognize the value of PreferredMD.

Results: Operational Efficiency and Cost Savings

PreferredMD Solutions have replaced up to 10 different software packages for ASCs, removing redundancies while improving efficiency and quality of care. We have expanded some services to be up-to-date with current laws and regulations, offering the highest levels of HIPAA compliance and cybersecurity.

Using PreferredMD Solutions, ASCs and surgical facilities improve their profitability by reducing costs. A typical multispecialty surgery center can expect to save up to $55,500 per month on OR scheduling and physician credentialing alone.

Our Future

At PreferredMD Solutions, our primary goal is to help ASCs and surgical facilities remove redundancies in surgical operations and workflows, enabling surgeons and surgical care teams to focus on patient care. We are not complacent with our success; we continue to evaluate the surgical landscape and refine our services to meet changing needs.

Our vision is to bring our years of experience and clinical/operational expertise to more ASCs and surgical facilities, and become a premier service provider with a strong presence across the country. Our ultimate goal is to create an entire vertical integration from patients seeking providers at surgical facilities with optimized operations/workflows, to obtaining proof of excellence benchmarking data for payer review and provider marketing.
