Connectivity for chiropractors

Scheduling, notes and billing in a small, busy office. Appointments, records and payments all run on the connection, and customers notice the moment it fails.

Internet, wireless and security for chiropractors

Each of the three has to be right, and they are usually bought from different companies. We compare them together.

Internet

Scheduling and billing platforms are cloud-based.

Wireless

Check-in kiosks and tablets rely on in-office Wi-Fi.

Security

Health and insurance information carries privacy duties.

A small office paying a large-office price

By the Telecom Agency advisory team

The practice signed a bundle years ago that included services it has never used. The bill went up a little each year and nobody had time to question it.

What a consultant changes

An audit by Telecom Agency lists what is being paid for and what is being used. The difference comes off the bill, and the advisor negotiates the rest. It costs the practice nothing, because the provider pays the broker.

How Telecom Agency shops the market for chiropractors

The advice
A small practice starts with an audit of what is being paid for against what is used. The advice is often to simplify.
The price
Unused services come off the bill and what remains is renegotiated or re-quoted. For a small office, removing waste is usually the largest gain.
The service
The advisor watches the renewal date so the old bundle does not quietly return.
  • No fee to you: providers pay the advisor
  • Every provider compared, none favoured
