On Episode 75 of Leaders in Healthcare, billing expert Dawn Osland explains how the CMGP modifier was designed to capture pre- and post-visit tasks—but why many physicians underbill and leave money on the table. CMGP Calculator

How is billing complexity shaping your day-to-day practice? Let’s discuss.

What if your billing agent really is reading every line of your chart notes? đź‘€
Turns out—they are. In Ep. 74 of Leaders in Healthcare, Kyle Sherritt of Sherritt Services shares why proper charting, detailed time logs, and post-visit work documentation can significantly improve billing accuracy.
From paper charts to advanced EMRs, the process looks different for every physician—but the common thread? Accuracy equals revenue.

Ever tried navigating Alberta’s billing codes as an international medical graduate? It’s like switching keyboards mid-sentence—ICD-9 here, ICD-10 elsewhere. For many IMGs, coding becomes the steepest learning curve of practicing in Canada.
In The Definitive Guide For Physicians Billing In Alberta (Ep. 75), I spoke with healthcare billing expert Dawn Osland about why coding matters, how new models like PCPCM are changing workflows, and the tools physicians can lean on to lighten the load.

Ever been afraid that billing everything might trigger an audit?
You’re not alone — many solo practitioners intentionally under-bill to avoid drawing attention.
In Ep. 74 of Leaders in Healthcare, Kyle Sherritt, VP at Sherritt Services, explains how their process builds a bulletproof billing trail — so you can claim what you’ve earned and pass an audit with ease.
We cover why this matters far beyond income: it affects data accuracy, funding decisions, and the sustainability of our healthcare system.

đź’¸ A 20% revenue bump without working a single extra hour?
That’s the reality for many physicians once they start tracking all their billable work.
In Ep. 74 of Leaders in Healthcare, I spoke with Kyle Sherritt, VP at Sherritt Services, about the hidden income gap caused by under-billing.
From solo family practices to massive clinics, the missed opportunities can be eye-opening — in some cases, doubling income.
This isn’t just about more money. It’s about ensuring accurate data for funding, resource allocation, and patient access.

Do you think our system makes billing unnecessarily complex, or is it just the cost of doing business in healthcare?

đź“‹ How much of your workday never makes it onto a billing sheet?
From charting in your car between visits to managing a packed hospital shift, untracked care time means lost income and incomplete data on your workload.
In Ep. 74 of Leaders in Healthcare, Kyle Sherritt, VP at Sherritt Services, walks through how his team helps physicians capture all of their work — without skimming a percentage off the top.
It’s about more than revenue — accurate billing impacts patient access, resource allocation, and the sustainability of family medicine.

đź’° Are you leaving money on the table without realizing it?
In many provinces, a few minutes difference in your documentation—or choosing the right code—can mean hundreds of dollars gained or lost.

“Yeah, it pays” doesn’t mean it’s done right.
Across Canada, more doctors are billing themselves—and many are leaving 10–20% of their earnings on the table without realizing it.
In Ep. 74 of Leaders in Healthcare, I spoke with Kyle Sherritt (VP, Sherritt Services) about the pitfalls of self-billing, why fear of overbilling often leads to chronic underbilling, and how a single dedicated biller can improve compliance and income.
We also explored how billing practices connect to the bigger trends shaping Canadian primary care: tech adoption, virtual medical assistants, and province-by-province payment models.

Is the administrative burden in your primary care practice feeling less like a cost of doing business and more like a full-blown crisis? You're not alone.

In our latest Leaders in Healthcare episode, billing expert Dawn Osland breaks down how we got here. Over the past two decades, Alberta’s billing system has morphed from a straightforward process into a labyrinth of complex codes, modifiers, and intricate rules that demand a "secret decoder ring" to navigate.

We dive deep into the double-edged sword of new fee codes, the surprising hurdles for new-to-province physicians (think a 1,234-page manual!), and how the traditional fee-for-service model contributes to stress and uncompensated work. Dawn also gives us the rundown on the new PCPCM model—is it the solution we've been waiting for?

Watch the full episode to explore the future of primary care compensation and discover tools that could help your practice thrive.
