WHY ROCKFORD PULMONARY CLINIC?

As a pulmonary specialist, Dr. Nafsi understands the challenges that hospitals and healthcare professionals face when caring for patients with complex respiratory conditions. Many hospitals have limited access to pulmonologists, which often leads to referral of pulmonary patients to other health centers, resulting in delayed care and loss of revenue for the hospital.
 
RPC can help healthcare professionals and hospitals fill this void by directly contracting with hospitals and healthcare centers to provide comprehensive and timely pulmonary care to their patients. By partnering with RPC, healthcare professionals can provide their patients with access to high-quality pulmonary care close to home, improving patient outcomes and satisfaction.
 
Dr. Nafsi can provide in-office or telemedicine visits to patients with complicated conditions, including lung cancer and nodules, within 7 days of referral. Additionally, RPC can coordinate with local health centers to offer procedural services, such as bronchoscopy and EBUS, on-site, allowing patients to receive care within their own health system.

Rockford Pulmonary Clinic Collaborates With Local Centers

RPC understands that hospitals and healthcare centers need to retain patients within their own health systems to ensure continuity of care and maintain revenue. That’s why RPC works closely with hospitals and healthcare centers to provide these services locally, reducing the need for patients to travel to other centers for care.

Furthermore, Dr. Nafsi collaborates with local oncology and primary care teams to provide a comprehensive treatment plan and follow-up care as needed, ensuring that patients receive the best possible care.

By partnering with RPC, healthcare professionals and hospitals can reduce patient frustration, retain revenue, and ensure that their patients receive high-quality, timely pulmonary care. Contact RPC today to learn more about our direct contracting services and how we can help your hospital or healthcare center provide better care for your pulmonary patients.
