Easton, PA - After almost a decade of enduring the challenges of private practice—including pre-authorization hassles, insurance complications, and overhead costs—Dr. Chukwudi Ogbolu discovered a niche solution that significantly enhances the quality of care for the geriatric population. In his role as Medical Director and attending physician at a local nursing facility, Dr. Ogbolu is happy with the percentages, offering 60% skilled nursing and 40% long-term care. Dr. Ogbolu's transition from private practice to a nursing home setting has been transformative. On the skilled nursing side, there's high patient turnover, which brings in diverse cases and keeps the work environment dynamic. Conversely, the long-term care side allows Dr. Ogbolu to build lasting relationships with his patients, akin to his experience in private practice. This dual approach ensures that patients receive comprehensive, individualized care. ?Compared to private practice, the facility provides the office space, staff, medication, and testing,? Dr. Ogbolu shares. ?It also reduced my practice overhead, in addition to making to making my revenue more predictable.? Dr. Ogbolu is part of a shifting trend in nursing homes, where having attending physicians on staff is becoming the norm. ?In the past, nursing homes did not have medical doctors on staff. Today, patients arrive with an average of 27 medications. For example, a patient wit a knee injury will need physical therapy. We can't do physical therapy until the patient is medically stable. Having an attending physician is increasingly a necessity,? Dr. Ogbolu notes. For more information about Dr. Ogbolu, please visit https://www.linkedin.com/in/chudi-ogbolu-ab7bba68
