The Armony Needed an Intuitive Solution to Help Refocus Documentation Time to Patient Care
Dr. Dan Fosselman, D.O. is the chief medical officer at The Armory in Columbus, Ohio. He runs a holistic practice that uniquely combines medical, fitness, and recovery services. By offering direct primary care, physical therapy, exercise physiology, and recovery resources all under one roof, he can optimize the overall health of his patients. Dr. Fosselman faced a significant challenge in getting accurate and consolidated patient history data to provide comprehensive care to his patients. With the need for a thorough understanding of their medical histories, he spent hours reading through pages of records to create optimal treatment plans. This tedious process consumed valuable time.
The Armory Simplified Documentation
To make his practice more efficient and improve patient outcomes, Dr. Fosselman turned to Simpl Healthcare. The Simpl patient-centric platform gave him access to patients' medical histories with just a few clicks. With data pulled from 90% of hospitals and clinics across the U.S., Dr. Fosselman could view accurate and detailed medical information on each patient's health status, including Medical History, Medications, and Vitals, among other data. This helped to eliminate redundancy and unnecessary patient costs associated with additional tests. He was also able to get a summary of the patient’s medical history as part of his pre-planning process, which saved him time from having to review all the records.
The Armory Streamlined their Patient Intake Process with Simpl
Using Simpl Healthcare transformed Dr. Fosselman's practice. With Simpl Healthcare interoperability and AI Summarization, he saved 4-5 hours of administrative work per day. Pre-visit planning, which previously took an hour or more, now only requires 5-10 minutes. With accurate and consolidated patient information readily available, he can create personalized treatment plans that encompass medical, fitness, recovery, and therapy services. This has led to improved patient outcomes, reduced frustration, and prevented provider burnout associated with documentation.
