Case Study: Central Arizona Pain Institute achieves 20% higher collections and $3,500/month dictation savings with CompuGroup Medical (CGM APRIMA EHR & RCM)

Reducing a Practice’s Pains with CGM APRIMA EHR

Central Arizona Pain Institute, a growing pain‑management practice founded in 2005, struggled after an unsuccessful EHR rollout and reverted to paper charts and dictation. Wanting an adaptable system that would preserve providers’ workflows and address specialty needs, the practice researched vendors and selected CGM APRIMA EHR and PM.

CGM APRIMA’s smooth implementation, onsite support, and customizable tools (like the Common Problem Palette) sped documentation and made workflows faster; voice recognition cut dictation costs by about $3,500/month. Adding CGM APRIMA Revenue Cycle Management later improved collections by at least 20% within a month, while responsive support, instant messaging, and chart‑based tasking strengthened internal communication and documentation.
