Are the physicians in this article unable to hire office staff? These jobs - most of them - listed above fall in the realm of "office staff." This is what your receptionist does or your nurses. I have never been to a doctor where the doctor manages the claims process him or herself, or where they are the ones emailing me or calling me.“You don’t train someone for all of those years in [medicine]… and then have them run a claims processing operation for insurance companies.”
Reams of lab results, refill requests, emails, and callbacks pop up continually on the computer screen.
