Why Your Physician Practice Staff Is Drowning in Post-Acute Paperwork—And What You Can Do About It

Written by | Jun 25, 2025 8:16:28 PM

If your team spends more time chasing signatures than seeing patients, you’re not alone. 

New research from Fierce Healthcare and Forcura reveals just how much time, money, and energy practices are losing to inefficient post-acute care coordination—and how technology can help you reclaim it. 

🔍 The reality inside your office may look a lot like this: 

  • One in three practices spends 10+ hours a week on post-acute documentation tasks. 
  • More than 30% have five or more employees involved in managing orders, faxes, and follow-ups. 
  • Nearly half don’t realize they can bill for care plan oversight under existing HCPCS codes. 
  • Only 7% are truly satisfied with their current coordination processes. 


So what’s the holdup? For many practices, it’s a lack of visibility into just how burdensome this workflow really is—or that a better option even exists.
