A Stronger Medical Practice Starts With Smart Accounting Strategies
Your patients trust you to do the right thing for their health. Who can you trust to do the right thing for your practice? Physicians are often viewed as altruists, but their practices are also complex business entities that require specialized skills to grow and thrive, whether it’s a solo practice or a large, multi-disciplinary medical group.
At James Moore we understand your challenges and deliver year-round tax, accounting and business solutions, so you can focus on patient care instead of worrying about your practice. Together, we’ve got this.
What makes us different?
When it comes to accounting for medical practices, our goal is to continually improve your practice and help it run more smoothly. That means we’re constantly working to increase our knowledge and the level of service you receive. It’s a commitment to always be bettering ourselves. To go above and beyond every day. Just like you.
When you partner with us, you’ll work with a team of tax strategists and accountants for doctors who are focused on understanding your practice and finding effective strategies to help you achieve your objectives. For physicians, that includes tackling HR and technology issues, maximizing profitability and net worth, and positioning you to receive the greatest benefit possible when you’re ready to transition out of the practice.

Case Study: Revenue Cycle Enhancement
for Physician Practices
The lead physician in a large group practice was concerned that her income was declining, especially when compared with salaries in other industries. The practice hired James Moore for revenue cycle enhancement services — a process improvement solution that examines the administrative and clerical functions that bill and collect the revenue for a medical practice.
Our healthcare CPAs analyzed several aspects of the practice's revenue cycle including patient scheduling, billing, clinical documentation, collections and other procedures. We then outlined and implemented improvements that reduced the amount of money left on the table by gaps in several processes. The results were dramatic; the practice increased profits by 900%.
