A survey of 360 independent practice leaders dropped this week.
The findings should alarm every independent physician in America.
79% say technology is critical to their ability to remain independent.
Only 64% are confident their current tools actually deliver.
That 15-point gap represents thousands of independent practices who know they need better technology — but are fighting insurance companies with the wrong weapons.
The same survey found:
→ 48% report rising claim denial volumes
→ 39% cite administrative burden as a top threat to independence
→ 88% believe AI could deliver major efficiency improvements
→ 44% say billing staff is the hardest role to recruit — second only to physicians
Here is what this data tells me:
Independent practices already know AI is the answer.
They just haven't found the right tool yet.
But there is something deeper happening beneath these numbers.
Administrative burden is not just an operational inconvenience.
It is the primary weapon being used to make independent practice feel unsustainable.
Private equity and hospital systems don't acquire independent practices by force.
They wait until the prior auth battles, the denied claims, the appeal deadlines — until the cumulative weight of fighting insurance companies alone — makes the buyout offer feel like relief.
That is The Great Rollup.
And it is happening right now — across every specialty, in every state.
MedMojo™ exists to fight back.
Prior Auth Intelligence — the AI defense grid for independent medical practices — so the administrative burden that is being used against you becomes a 5-minute task instead of a reason to sell.
Your independence is worth fighting for.
We built the tools to prove it.
