Valerie Sheety-Pilon, OD

Imagine being asked a month ago, “How would you feel about managing the care of your patients from the phone or the web?” I would hazard to guess that few of us had considered it a real possibility. COVID-19 awakened our industry to the applicability of remote care, while the government’s injunction of telehealth waiver 1135 made it a reality overnight.

Some say telehealth services, across all medical verticals, could have been adopted long ago. Though for good reason, telemedicine has been governed by strict regulations. Like me, many of you may have been watching the industry grapple with a position on this topic.

Architects going through documents together

Data holds the power to help your practice succeed. It’s the numbers that provide essential information to help you make informed decisions and drive revenue. In the data-driven world we live in, it’s no surprise that analytics play a vital role in the health of any business. Not only do analytics provide the necessary resources for making key decisions, but they provide important reference points to identify procedural gaps and areas to improve patient care.

At the heart of each optometry practice is the strength of its staff! For many, this means going the extra mile to provide the best patient care possible.

That’s why Eyefinity is excited to join the celebration for Paraoptometric Week! “An annual opportunity to recognize paraoptometrics for the value they contribute to the success of optometric practices,” according to the American Optometric Association, this week marks an opportunity to appreciate your staff who put in the extra hard work for your practice’s success.

Certified Paraoptometrics attain national recognition through certification by demonstrating an understanding of the concepts used in optometric care, passing an exam designed to challenge participants across a variety of topics including basic science, clinical principles and procedures, ophthalmic optics and dispensing, and professional issues. Equipped with the knowledge to exceed patient expectations, the value CPOs add to their practice is immeasurable.

Add S’more Automation to Your Practice with ERA

Posted on February 14, 2019 by Team Eyefinity

I’m an avid camper. I love the peacefulness of sitting out by the lake, reading a book, and spending time with my family. However, I think most frequent campers can agree that setting up your campsite is time consuming. It takes a while to clear the site, put up my tent, organize food, and set up the kitchen area.

At Eyefinity, the concept of turning routine tasks into automated processes inspires many of our new features. And it’s what inspired our newest Eyefinity Practice Management feature: Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA).
