Welcome to MMQB

All of us in the healthcare profession know that the patient is at the center of all that we do. Our mission is to promote health, prevent disease, treat the whole patient, and when cure is not possible, to always provide comfort.
In part due to the rising and out of control healthcare cost, our national debt is more than 14 trillion dollars. The practice of medicine as we know it is changing right now. There is a rise of quality and patient safety movement that is changing the expectations and the payment system slowly.
The major change is Payment for Value. Value is equal to quality divided by the cost.
For private medical offices, the physicians and the staff will have to learn more about patient safety, high quality and low cost delivery of healthcare. The MMQB is specifically designed for the staff members of a medical office. If you are a medical assistant, receptionist, roomer, check-out staff, medical records keeper, biller, coder, office manager, or working in any other capacity, you are a vital part of the team that it takes to care for the patient and their loved ones.
Patient's life and all of our livelihoods depends on it.
Please join the conversation.
