Issue: There has been an increase in the amount of eligible indigent clients being assisted with physician services (consultations, surgery, treatments, etc.) and laboratory/x-ray services (diagnostic exams, radiation treatments, etc). Additional funding is also needed for the imaging capability that was added to our current client management software and to cover unexpected vehicle maintenance expenses.
Solution: Approval of requested funds will allow our office to have the necessary funding to cover expenses.
Result: Clients will be able to continue consulting with their physicians as medically necessary and prevent expensive medical complications and unnecessary hospitalizations. Invoices for client management software will be paid accordingly. Necessary vehicle maintenance will be done as needed.
