PRESIDENT OF EMPIRE MEDICAL TRAINING Are you looking for a valuable way to grow your patient volume and improve satisfaction? Adding pain management services to your practice is a smart choice that will help you become more competitive as you pad your bottom line. Learn more about the compelling reasons to explore pain management.

Grow Your Patient Volume

Adding pain management services to your practice will help you grow your patient base. Pain management is any of several therapies that are designed to ease chronic pain. Your pain management strategy may include physical therapy, acupuncture, chiropractic care, spine treatments, or counseling. Pain management is used for all types of ongoing pain including musculoskeletal, neuropathic, and spinal pain. Offering pain management services will increase the number of people you can help.

Make the Practice Competitive with Hospitals

Many patients work with the hospital for post-operative pain management. However, you can become more competitive with your local hospitals by providing these services within your practice. This is particularly appealing to patients having outpatient surgeries who can then minimize their interaction with the hospital.

Provide More Comprehensive Care

Adding pain management services to your practice will give you a more comprehensive suite of patient care services. You can build a stronger relationship with your patients by meeting all their ongoing care needs at your facility.

Optimize Your Reimbursement

Pain management services will also help you increase your reimbursement potential. Many common pain management procedures have high reimbursements, including as epidural injections, nerve blocks, and trigger point injections. If you're interested in furthering your education so you can offer more services to your patients, pain management is a great place to start. Empire Medical Training offers eight Pain Management Workshops that will help you expand your service offerings.
