Digital X-rays
I'm convinced that digital is the way to go. I've accepted the fact that start-up will be expensive but in the long run it's worth it. The NY convention is coming up and I figure that I'll get the best deal. I've read the literature but I'd appreciate any advice/questions/things to look for in preparation to talking to sales personnel. Any suggestions?

I've only been doing it for a short time and I don't think an office realizes as much of the savings that the digital x-rays companies are claiming, but from a convenience standpoint, you can't loose. For documentation that insurance companies it's ideal: either upload your x-rays to a site such as NEA or print out a copy and mail it in when (of if) they request it. And if they "lose" them, just print out another.

We're showing some savings on x-rays, not a lot, but when you couple it with the whole "electonic office package", i.e. edi, computorized record keeping, eft, the ability to literally store a patient's whole record in a computor and eliminate paper and the problems that entails, it's more than worth it.

eft?
Electronic Funds Transfer - receiving insurance benefits transmitted electronically to your bank account instead of a paper check. Most insurance have these capabilities.

Some companies don't have their act together with regard to allowing you to separate out amounts paid for different patients. Talk to a rep before you sign up. Most are pretty cool though
