MD Runs No Overhead Practice with Avado, Evernote and Grasshopper

With the failure of the super Congress, there's a 27% cut in Medicare reimbursement that is looming. Less well understood is the implications on primary care salaries. Dr. Matthew Mintz wrote for KevinMD that the implications would be a halving of primary care providers' salaries. Whether this will happen remains to be seen, but it is indisputable that primary care has received dramatically less reimbursement over the years. Not wanting to wait around for a hoped-for "doc fix" from Congress, one doctor has taken matters into his own hands. 

Dr. Craig Koniver wrote on Physicians Practice about how he runs a lean practice employing no administrative staff whatsoever. In the piece entitled "Making Your Practice More Efficient Means Fewer Staff, More Tools" he outlines his use of Avado, Evernote and Grasshopper for roughly the cost of a latte a day run a very lean medical practice.
