The EHR crisis in Functional Medicine is worse than you think. 62% of burned-out physicians cite their EHR as a major frustration source. For Functional Medicine practitioners, that number tells only half the story. Here's what's really happening: 📊 22.5% spend 8+ hours weekly on EHR tasks outside normal work hours 📊 49% say poor EHR usability increases their likelihood of leaving medicine entirely 📊 FM practitioners order 5-10x more specialty labs than conventional practices Here’s the problem: Traditional EHRs were built for isolated visits, not long journeys with personalized protocols. ⚙️ Your care-to-commerce loop lives across 3-4 separate systems ⚙️ Your billing model exists outside your practice management system ⚙️ And you're documenting for billing codes, not clinical intelligence It's time to demand a system that matches your care model's sophistication.

A perfect storm is threatening the ASC model. "Scheduled" Doesn’t Mean "Ready." And it’s costing ASCs every single day. Becker’s recently interviewed 40 ASC leaders about their biggest operational hurdles. Here’s the most surprising finding: Most ASCs can’t distinguish between patients who are scheduled and patients who are actually ready. “The surgical schedule serves as a pivotal factor that can lead to either remarkable success or catastrophic failure.” — Maher Kodsy, MD, Chairperson, Anesthesiology Department, UH Elyria Medical Center Here’s what the readiness crisis looks like in real time: ⚠️ Staffing shortages: Staff is stretched thin by repetitive tasks like chasing clearances and managing pre-op coordination ⚠️ Rising costs: ASCs are forced to subsidize anesthesia coverage as reimbursement rates stagnate while provider pay rises ⚠️ Authorization chaos: Leaders describe prior authorizations as a “muddled mess of contradictions” that routinely lead to claim denials ⚠️ Revenue trapped: Delayed reimbursements and weak front-end verification turn clean claims into long collection cycles As one administrator told Becker’s: “The cost of anesthesia has risen dramatically, reimbursement continues to decline, and we’re being asked to underwrite the disparity. The numbers do not add up.” Making million-dollar OR scheduling decisions based on hope is a gamble you lose every single day. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Steer Health delivers Predictable Surgeries: On Time, All the Time. Here’s how: Steer Health’s Case Readiness Index transforms schedule data into readiness intelligence through systematic orchestration at T-21, T-14, T-7, and PAT: ✅ T-21: Digital intake completed, medical screening status checked, clearance requirements identified, benefits verification launched ✅ T-14: PAT checklist completed, specialist clearances received, medication adjustments confirmed, authorization submitted and tracked ✅ T-7: Final readiness items confirmed, NPO understanding verified, transportation arranged, all documentation complete ✅ Day of Surgery: Real-time dashboard shows exact readiness status for every case No more discovering critical gaps when it’s too late to solve them. Because readiness data beats schedule data every single time. Click to know more 👇 https://lnkd.in/gE49DFBC (link to article in comments)

Live from Becker's 31st Annual "The Business and Operations of ASCs"! 💥 Our team is here connecting with ASC leaders on how to achieve predictable, on-time surgeries — every time. Stop by Booth #2008 at the Swissôtel Chicago to see how AI-driven orchestration is helping ASCs run smarter, reduce cancellations, and strengthen margins. Let’s talk about what’s possible when your OR runs on time — all the time. 💡 #BeckersASC #AIinHealthcare #SteerHealth #AmbulatorySurgeryCenters

Today, we are breaking down why operational “readiness gaps” have become one of the biggest threats to efficiency and revenue at ASCs, and how AI-powered orchestration is helping leading organizations overcome them.   Discover how structured checkpoints (T-21, T-14, T-7) and automation reduce human error, eliminate manual phone-tag, and deliver measurable results: ✅ +18% Patient throughput ✅ –42% Administrative workload ✅ 1.8× Higher OR utilization ✅ 95%+ Patient satisfaction As Sridhar Yerramreddy, CEO of Steer Health, says: “The goal is to give staff superpowers — to take the busywork off their plate and make it easier for patients to do business with you.” Read more below.

Chicago, here we come again! 🚀 Our team’s heading to Becker's Healthcare's ASC Annual Meeting to show how AI can help ASCs get every case ready on time — from T-21 to T-14 to T-7 — so your day runs smoother, your staff can breathe, and your patients arrive fully prepared. Swing by booth #2008 to see how Steer Health automates prep, verification, and escalations, keeping your schedules on track and your margins strong. Let’s start every case on time. #BeckersASC #HealthcareInnovation #AIinHealthcare #SteerHealth

🏥 Our team will be at the 31st Annual Becker's Healthcare’s ASC Meeting – The Business & Operations of ASCs this week! We’re looking forward to connecting with ASC leaders and discussing how AI is transforming outpatient operations, from smarter scheduling and staffing to optimizing margins and improving patient experience. If you’re attending, stop by and say hello - we’d love to meet you! You'll find us in the Foyer with the booth number #2008. #BeckersHealthcare #ASC #DigitalHealth #HealthcareInnovation #AIinHealthcare #OutpatientCare

I’m attending #HLTHUSA, October 19–22 in Las Vegas! Join me at healthcare’s #1 must-attend innovation event → https://lnkd.in/gy_BeSPA Let’s connect, collaborate, and drive impact.

The silent margin killer isn’t a lack of demand. In perioperative care, billions leak out every year — not because hospitals lack patients, but because readiness breaks down before a single incision happens: ❌ Cancelled surgeries cost $7K–$12K each ❌ Idle OR hours burn $1,100+ ❌ Finance sees the loss after it’s too late That’s the gap between automation and orchestration. At Steer Health, we help hospitals move from missed steps → seamless flow: ✅ T-7 Readiness Automation for labs, authorizations, and H&Ps ✅ Daily “Revenue at Risk” Dashboards for proactive financial visibility ✅ Dynamic Backfill & Patient Navigation to recover idle block hours The result: 20%+ higher OR utilization and millions in rescued margin.
