Best Practice: Keep These Sections Current
Studies cite that patients and referring physicians consider the following information to be the most important for evaluating, choosing or referring a provider. Healthgrades recommends, at minimum, you keep the following sections current:
- Photo
- Insurance carriers and plans accepted
- Care philosophy
- Patient satisfaction (ratings and reviews)
- Provider responses to patient reviews
- Conditions treated
- Procedures performed
Misrepresenting yourself as a physician violates federal statutes and laws in all 50 states. Only a physician or an authorized representative of a physician are allowed to manage a provider's profile on Healthgrades.com. Violators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
