In my pediatric patient panel, I don’t make efforts to bring in the older teens. Your data inspires me to look at that.

I work in rural health system that has been penny wise pound foolish for a decade. With these poor reimbursements, we look for the cheapest solution and end up suffering in the long term. I think more open source healthcare technology for modern America could open the gates to healthcare access and improve revenue. Paying for each EMR text message reminder in 2024 is how stupid our business systems operate. I wish technology would drive costs down like it has in other businesses instead of taking more of the revenue each year.

Thank you, Dr. Peters. The work you do is hard but extremely important to our society. You should by all means bring back your adolescents for a " free well exam". I suggest that your system look at https://www.ohmd.com . They have free plans for texting, and if you need, I can connect you with their CEO. Chip Hart and Dr. Steven schedule all physicals a year out. Then you don't have to run reports and call people. Hope to see you soon again
