The perspective on remote workers differs greatly from small to large businesses and company to company. In many industries (media, IT, finance, etc.), the growth of the workforce includes hiring workers who telecommute or work from a remote locations. Thus far, medical practices have shied away from the trend, preferring face-to-face interactions between patients and doctors (or other medical practice staff).
Could this trend be changing? And, more importantly, should this trend change?
To answer these questions, we must first note how the healthcare industry has shifted into a more technological age. Telemedicine, like online diagnoses, now enables doctors to consult with patients remotely and sometimes treat them. Similarly, administrative roles in practice management, consultation, and billing services are now being headed by remote workers, so the trend is indeed changing.
If more medical practices should utilize remote workers, that’ll depend on each individual practice environment and its needs. Here are a few pros and cons to consider.
If your medical practice plans to accept remote workers into the fold, be sure to make the transition smoothly for all those involved and affected. In addition, keep lines of communication open and delineate clear guidelines.
