This caught my eye today: MedExpress Selects AthenaHealth. I’m evaluating several EMR/Practice Management products for urgent care centers.

Interesting article on a couple of issues.  I’ve owned or managed about 18 urgent care centers in my career, but never a 24/7 facility.

The manager of several hospital affiliated urgent care centers asked me for some advice about his staffing model.

Physicians do a disservice to patients with work related injuries by not understanding basic return to work practices.  Given the same injury, patients who go back to some type of productive work as early as possible have less long term disability, are more productive, and happier than those who are kept out of work.
